Series 1, Episode 5 - My Turn to Be Poorly

Brian hits one of the lowest points in his life and considers ending it all at the age of 27 -the age so many other great rock stars had met their demise. But it is also at this point Brian wrote one of his greatest classics - which he plays for us - and which was a huge influence on the rock world, particularly Morrissey.
