With the current interest in David Gilmour, following the release of his new album On An Island, and his current tour, broadcasters are making the most of this, and we've news of more Gilmour/Pink Floyd radio and TV specials. This supplements the information we gave you on March 29th of other broadcasts!

David Gilmour
David Gilmour on RTL TV
First, Dutch TV channel RTL last week aired a short interview with David. Lasting just three and a half minutes, it is pretty brief, but thankfully for the non-Dutch speakers, David was not overdubbed, simply subtitled. You can view the interview on demand through this link at www.RTL.nl. You need to scroll down to "Video: 22-03, Pink Floyd" to launch it.

Our thanks to Carla Buijsman for letting us know.


Tomorrow, the French branch of RTL broadcasts a Pink Floyd special on its radio service. Each week, George Lang tells the story of a major artist or band, using interviews with the performers themselves. Tomorrow (April 1st) at 11pm (CET) the two-hour show looks at the Pink Floyd story. You can listen to the live stream of the radio station by going to www.RTL.fr. Our thanks to Alain for this news.


British TV isn't deglecting its viewers either... For those who've not yet bought the Dark Side Of The Moon Classic Albums DVD, you get another chance to see it on BBC 4 TV, on Friday April 7th, at 11:20pm. If you haven't seen it, you a missing a treat - check out our review.

The UK's Channel 4 TV are also joining in, airing the excellent "David Gilmour In Concert" special recorded at the 2001 Royal Festival Hall show (which was subsequently released on DVD -again, reviewed on this site) on Saturday April 15th, at 1:30am. Again, a great watch, and an essential part of your DVD collection!

The wonderful DavidGilmour.com site is also reporting that this special will be shown by various broadcasters worldwide soon, and they should have full details of airing times/dates soon. They do note, though, that Portuguese TV channel RTP will broadcast it on April 22nd on RTP 1, and it will be repeated in May on Channel 2.

As we get information on other broadcasts/broadcasters, we will let you know.
