First time poster and was hoping someone might be able to help me out with this.
Attended an organised trip with Argon Events to Pere Lachaise in late-2001, which was booked on the back of the success of that July's 30th Anniversary tour.
Whilst we visited Pere Lachaise a film company filmed a few of us and interviewed us for a programme that was shown on Discovery, talking about what makes Jim's grave such a popular destination and the legacy of the Doors.
I was interviewed for that programme and I've had a few people come up to me and tell me they'd seen it broadcast but I have no idea what the programme was called and wondered if anyone could help and, at a long shot, if anyone had a copy of the programme?
Thanks in advance for any help.

It became part of a series called Rock Shrines which we had here on the BBC several times. Jim's segment has been shown here a few times over the last few years. It used to be quite common on the net download sites so maybe if you did a search you might get lucky.

Thanks for the reply!
I've had a Google and get an airdate of 22nd August 2000, which puts that programme about 15 months before my visit and about ten days before my first visit to Jim's grave.
Unless the airdate is wrong?
I've tried contacting Argon Events but they never reply, tried Discovery but they say without the programme title I've got no hope.
I've recently moved house and found all my information from those 2001 trips in the attic, so hopefully there'll be something more in there.

The Jim Rock Shrines is indeed from July 3rd 2001 so that date is certainly wrong unless it refers to the date the series began.

Cool. It could well be the date the series started as it lists the Jim episode as number 8 in the series and I seem to recall it was quite spread out?
