Episode description

Trevor Nelson tells the story of Reggae’s first and greatest superstar.

In the second episode of Eras: Bob Marley, it’s 1972, and The Wailers find themselves in London. When a strange twist of fate puts them in front of Island Records’ Chris Blackwell, a new chapter begins for Bob, Peter and Bunny.

But under the pressure of life on the road, tensions grow between the old friends - and something has to give.

As the eyes of the world turn to Bob Marley, a golden age of Reggae begins.

Featuring brand new interviews with friends, fans and collaborators, plus rare BBC archive.

A Cup and Nuzzle Production. Series Producer: Joe Foley
