Mud - Strange Addictions is on either Gem or Go, and it seems to be on a constant repeat loop, so it shouldn't be hard to catch this grossness again - another woman eats rocks.........they eat so many weird things, like detergent, fabric softener.
It's so fucked up, getting pleasure from such horrible stuff.
And Wynter, a lot of my crush for Bill is based on this weird little movie nobody seems to have heard of - plus another where he was a shy public servant.
The movie is called Strange Fruit -
"Strange Fruit" had everything that makes a legendary rockband: Money, Fame, Success, Groupies, a Singer who died of drugs and even a divine ending, when lightning struck the stage during an open-air. Twenty years later, all band members are minding their own businesses, the idea of a band reunion is brought up by, well, public request. Tony, the former keyboard player, sets out only to find his former friends working as a roofer, a gardener and a hotel clerk. They all became rather everyday people, married or still single, they definitely are not wild and crazy anymore. But with the help of former manager Karen, who is still dreaming of Brian, the apparently deceased lead guitarist, they all, old, fat and wrinkled as they are, try to catch that spirit again.

Soundtrack is really good too written by people from Foreigner/Squeeze
And I'm going to order this movie I forgot about - it's hilarious and really uplifting, and way older than I realised, 1998.
Bill, is outrageous, he's all slithery, glamorous, druggie, deadbeat, amazing, crazy ROCKSTAR in capital letters.And he sings great.
And thank you so much for the tips on those shows, should be able to chase them both up now - those type of shows are my absolute favourite.
I loved the other ones with House in the title, BBC did, where a family took on another era for a bit, especially the 1940s one.
