Edwyn Collins: ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Again
Following Edwyn Collins, former lead singer of Orange Juice and a successful solo artist in his own right, on his road to recovery following a brain haemorrhage in February 2005.
Edwyn Collins, former lead singer of Orange Juice and a successful solo artist in his own right, suffered a brain haemorrhage in February 2005 and almost died. Miraculously he pulled through, despite contracting MRSA after undergoing a risky operation, but had to face a lengthy and arduous rehabilitation programme to learn how to walk, speak and play the guitar again.
The programme follows him through therapy and back into the recording studio as he completes the solo album - ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Again - that he began before falling ill.
Includes Edwyn's remarkable return to the stage, singing a selection of old and new songs at the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Electric Proms.
