The Ecstasy Of Wilko Johnson – BBC 1
Julien Temple’s extraordinary documentary ‘The Ecstasy Of Wilko Johnson’ was screened on BBC 1 as part of the ‘Imagine…’ series on November 24th. You can still catch it on the BBC iPlayer here, available until Christmas Eve.
And, what with Christmas coming up, if you’re after a DVD for that special person in your life, you can order one here! It’s a beautiful item and comes complete with surreal artwork by Jonny Halifax (who designed the award-winning film poster for the ‘The Ecstasy Of Wilko Johnson’) and rock ‘n’ roll fairytale sleeve notes by Wilko Johnson / Lee Brilleaux biographer Zoë Howe.
Check out the film trailer for ‘The Ecstasy Of Wilko Johnson’ below.

Hi Wilko,
saw the “Ecstasy” film on screen at International Oldenburg Film Festival (Germany) last September – it was a tremendous success. Loved to see Japanese guys go mad while you’re playing … and now I hope to go nuts soon as well while you’re gigging (in north Germany?) 🙂

HI Wilco,
Really enjoyed ‘Ecstasy’ when I saw it in Dublin this year and again on BBC4 recently when I tipped off my mates to watch it, all enjoyiong it. I felt I was on a ‘trip’ through your inner mind with the lovely images and landscaspes. Loved the ‘She does it Right’ Wilco girls rockin hard in the final credits! Very funny! Anyway hope your keeping well and look forward to getting ‘Ecstasy’ DVD for Xmas, to dove tail the excellent ‘Oil City Confidential’ one for repeat enjoyable viewing. Also thanks for making the long journey up to the Rory Gallagher Tribute festival last June in Donegal,Ireland. Take care and Keep on Rockin!
