Documentary that makes use of unprecedented access to follow life in the New York Times newsroom for a year. The New York Times is arguably the most important newspaper in the world; it is certainly one of the best read and most influential newspapers in the United States. Filmmaker Andrew Rossi was granted rare access to the internal workings of the newspaper for this documentary, where he captures the frantic nature of professional journalism as stories erupt and advances in technology continually force the paper to adapt. In particular, the story of crusading journalist David Carr is picked up. Carr attends closely to the threat of social media and internet technology to the kind of professional, newsroom-based journalism of the New York Times and offers a staunch defence of his paper and the print media it represents.

In 1962 four young men John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr came together to form the 20th century musical phenomenon known as The Beatles.

The band stormed Europe in 1963, and, in 1964, they conquered America. Their groundbreaking world tours changed global youth culture forever and, arguably, invented mass entertainment as we know it today. All the while, the group were composing and recording a series of extraordinarily successful singles and albums. However the relentless pressure of such unprecedented fame, that in 1966 became uncontrollable turmoil, led to the decision to stop touring. In the ensuing years The Beatles were then free to focus on a series of albums that changed the face of recorded music.

Master storyteller and Oscar winner, Ron Howard, explores this incredible journey in his own unique way: How did The Beatles do this? How did they cope with all the fame and pressure? How did they not only survive, but go on to revolutionise popular music?

With original interviews, footage, staggering live performances, and the intimate study of character that Ron Howard is known for, he puts us right inside this extraordinary adventure, answering the question everyone always wants to know: What was it like to be there?!!

Period-piece documentary originally made for the 1939 New York World's Fair ('The World of Tomorrow'), with a newly-recorded music score by Aaron Copland.

Live stage performance of Lou Reed's 1973 album, recorded at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, New York over five nights in 2007. When it was first released, 'Berlin', Reed's third solo outing, received a critical mauling, especially since it followed his earlier triumph, 'Transformer', with its hit single 'Walk On The Wild Side'. 'Berlin' is a tragic rock opera which deals with the drug-addled relationship of a doomed couple, and all its attendant depression and angst. The use of orchestral arrangements, horn sections and top session musicians alienated a large section of Reed's fanbase on release. However, over time the album has been re-evaluated, and is now regarded as one of Reed's best solo works, ranking 344 on 'Rolling Stone' magazine's 500 greatest albums of all-time.

Billy Butler presents this documentary chronicling the history of Liverpool. One of the world's premier ports, Liverpool was in fact ignored by the Roman invaders in favour of Chester, and it remains unclear precisely how the city obtained its name. In the second half of the twentieth century the emergence of the Beatles and the whole Merseybeat sound made Liverpool one of England's cultural centres, and the city is also famous for producing two of the country's premier football clubs, Everton and Liverpool FC.
