  • The award-winning BBC documentary which created the world's oldest rock group, The Zimmers - with a 90-year-old lead singer and a combined age of more than 3,000. The film won a Royal Television Society award and has been screened at the UN.
    BBC documentary-maker Tim Samuels sets out to make a film about how badly the elderly are treated in Britain - and decides to form a band with the lonely old people he finds in care homes, tower blocks and bingo halls. No-one takes Samuels' idea seriously until he comes across record label owner Neil Reed - and U2 producer Mike Hedges - who believe that the elderly should be given a voice and manage to get access to the Beatles' old studio at Abbey Road.
    On a magical day, the 40 old people - who have no musical background - come together at Abbey Road to record their version of The Who's 'My Generation', with 90-year-old Alf belting out the lead vocals.
    Overnight, Alf and band become global sensations. Their video goes to number one on TH-cam, media from more than 50 countries demand interviews and they fly over to LA to appear on the biggest chat show alongside Hollywood's biggest star George Clooney. This is all captured in the half-hour sequel to this film, "The Zimmers Go To Hollywood".
