After last week's Bauhaus-fest it seems the writers and producers may be getting a little fixated on one artist each week in this second series, as last night's episode featured three tracks either exclusively Bowie or at least featuring him singing. Although the track list looks as long as in previous weeks it felt like there were long interludes in the programme with no music at all, which is at the least a lost opportunity to showcase some great music. It's rapidly becoming one of the only reasons I'm still watching the show.
