There’s a new documentary about the late great Roy Orbison, and it’s a cheerio to The Hairy Bikers Home for Christmas and Strictly - It Takes Two.
Pick of the day
Roy Orbison: Love Hurts, 9.30pm, BBC Four
Roy Orbison died 29 years ago but he's hardly forgotten, thanks to an incredible voice and some fantastic songs.
As one of rock 'n roll's pioneers he achieved superstar status in the 1960s, writing and releasing a series of hits such as Oh, Pretty Woman, Only the Lonely, In Dreams and Crying.
But while his professional life was full of triumph, Roy suffered terrible misfortune in his personal life, losing his wife and two of his children in successive tragedies, rebuilding his life by relying on his music to distract him from desolation.
His legacy as a beloved rock legend and a devoted father is revealed through intimate interviews with Roy Orbison's three surviving sons, featuring previously unseen home videos as Alex, Roy Jnr and Wesley Orbison discuss their late father.
