Rolling Stones' Keith Richards Taking Over TV Channel

(Classic Rock) Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards will curate an entire weekend of programming on BBC Four later this month. He'll pick all shows over the course of three as-yet-unnamed days, which will also feature specially-filmed in-depth interviews with the Stones icon which have been complied by director Julien Temple.

He was behind the film Keith Richards: The Origin Of The Species which aired on BBC2 back in July, with a 75-minute director's cut of the documentary also planned for the weekend.

Richards says: "No one has taken over a TV channel before. Let's see how it flies." Temple adds: "The programming will be interwoven with a uniquely relaxed, wide-ranging and intimate interview in which Keith shares his legacy, world views, life philosophy and survival strategies with viewers.

"It's an open invitation for the audience to get to know Keith in-depth over three nights in a way that has never been seen before." Read more here.
