Late Motörhead frontman Lemmy believed he was going to hell - because, as he said, "you can't imagine a pool table in heaven".
Lemmy, real name Ian Fraser Kilmister, passed away on December 28 just days after he turned 70.
A new BBC iPlayer programme titled Lemmy: In His Own Words will take a look back through the BBC vaults, bringing together performances and interviews from across his 50-year music career and in one interview unearthed for the programme, he mused: "Do you go out like a little candle? Or do you re-incarnate? Do you go and live with Jesus? . . . I don't think so."
You can't imagine a pool table in heaven can you?"
Speculating on the afterlife, he added: "I think it is all wonderful and we all go and live in Snowden at the top by the bar.
"I'm going to hell anyway, that's where the pool tables are. You can't imagine a pool table in heaven can you?"
Lemmy was a pool enthusiast, with a Rolling Stone interview in 2014 noting that his pool table was a present from his friend Slash.
The BBC Music programme draws on interviews from documentaries and programmes including I'm In A Rock 'N' Roll Band! (2010), Forever Young: How Rock 'n' Roll Grew Up (2010), Heavy Metal Britannia (2010), Riverside (1982), Later ... With Jools Holland (2000), The Young Ones (1984), French & Saunders (1990), and Whistle Test (1985).
The programme will also feature classic Top of the Pops studio performances, as well as some material never previously broadcast.
Lemmy: In His Own Words will be available on BBC iPlayer from Friday January 22 at 9.00pm.
