I don't think so because it is presented as a "new documentary". It's also on Cbc's sister station CBC/WORLD  on Wed night I believe at around 7 or 8 pm?

This show was very interesting! Tommy Smothers playing guitar with John Lennon on the recording of "Give Peace A Chance" Also "Timothy Leary" the Guru of "Lsd" along with a host of journalists, celebritys etc! A piece of music History! I think that "John" used his "Beatle" popularity to capitalize on his and Yoko's peace movement! He elevated himself to the level of being an "activest" which the American Government didn't like very much! In years to come we may be studying John for his activisim and musical stature also.

I also found it very intresting, but on my best of john lennon c.d. this song is credited to lennon/McCartney guess thats wrong. I really liked the bit where John found out that the guy had a fake press pass then he gave him a weekend pass or something. an't get much nicer than that

John wasn't ready to break the credit just yet, The Beatles were still alive when the bed-ins took place (just).

It was pretty good. I liked the interviews with Pete Seeger. Did anyone catch the Big Sugar doc that was on after it? Wow.

I watched the "Part/2" of the Dylan one instead! I think all the songs at that time had the Lennon McCartney name on them!
