A celebration of The Cure. Robert Smith's unique songwriting talents meant their long list of singles was always destined to break out of tortured students bedrooms and be embraced by a far wider audience. This archive collection of the Cure’s performances on the BBC goes from the early days with A Forest through to hits like Lovecats, Friday I’m in Love, Close to Me and Boys Don’t Cry, demonstrating why, in Britain and overseas, they enjoyed – or pretended not to enjoy – such huge success.
