- Year ZeroE1
Year ZeroThe unaired final episode covering the subject of Savoy books and Alan Moore's horrific graphic novels. Savoy books: Kerry Richardson filmed us and Alan Moore for an episode called 'Year Zero'. The series was intended to go out in April 1996, and the BBC Books publication - Y for Year Zero - deleted which is an exact pictorially-assisted sequence of the films as they were meant to be shown in the TV series - shows you what could have been. It is a very good book. But someone at the BBC lost their nerve.
