24 Hour Party People
	Released in 2002 this film follows the history of Factory records from the legendary Sex Pistols gig at the Free Trade hall, Manchester to the Happy Mondays ill fated trip to Barbados.		Not a documentary, more a comedic interpretation of the Factory legend through the eyes of Tony Wilson and friends. So don't expect accuracy. In driving scenes look out for 21st century cars!

	The TV Programme:

	DVD - Original UK Version: 2 Disc set		DVD - US Version: single disc
	The UK DVD comes as a two disc set and has more features than the US version. HMV stores have their own numbered limited edition version of the set in a different sleeve. The contents are identical though. Later UK versions are on a single CD		The US DVD is a single DVD and doesn't have as many features as the UK Versions. Howeve it is a lot easier to navigate as everything is in plain English - and the scene selection is done using still pictures.
