Pink Floyd: The Story
Himself
Excelente documentário transmitido pela BBC no dia 15 de novembro de 1994, produzido na época da turnê "The Division Bell". Apesar de Roger Waters ter se recusado a conceder entrevista neste programa, a era pós-Waters é apenas mencionada brevemente (durante os últimos 2 minutos). O resto é focado na história da banda com Waters. O documentário não só apresenta entrevistas com os três membros do Pink Floyd na época, mas também inclui entrevistas interessantes com diversas pessoas estreitamente relacionadas com a banda: Andrew King, Joe Boyd, Mike Leonard, Storm Thorgerson, Ron Geesin, Clare Torry , Douglas Adams, entre outros. Também contém imagens de arquivo raras, tais como extratos de 1968 do programa "Tomorrow's World" e um filme muito original mostrando a gravação banda para a música "Marooned" no estúdio-barco de David Gilmour, o Astoria, com Bob Ezrin tocando baixo nesta sessão.
