Iron Maiden’s Flight 666 – Film UK TV Debut In March As Part Of BBC4’s Heavy Metal Britannia Weekend

BBC4 will be screening the Award-winning Flight 666 documentary on Thursday March 4th at 23.00 (GMT), a very suitable starting point for their Heavy Metal Britannia weekend!
And a special one hour edit of the spectacular Maiden Live Concert (from the bonus disc in the Flight 666 DVD release) can be seen the following night, Friday March 5th at 23.00 (GMT). The concert will be shown after two BBC Metal programmes: the first is Heavy Metal Britannia  (21.00 GMT) which charts the origins and history of British Heavy Metal and includes interviews with such legendary performers as Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi, Judas Priest’s Rob Halford, Motorhead’s Lemmy and Maiden’s very own Bruce Dickinson. The second is Heavy Metal At The BBC (22.30 GMT) and is a 30 minute compilation of performances by various metal bands recorded over the years. Both these BBC Programmes will be repeated on BBC4 on Sunday Mar 7th at 21.00 and 22.30 respectively, with the Iron Maiden Live concert repeated at 01.30am (GMT) the following morning.
