Contributed by miniblindbandit, Posted by Sex Pistols

Made in Manchester will be producing a radio documentary that will attempt to find out who the "real" Sid Vicious was. The program, In Search of Sid, is on BBC Radio 4 next Tuesday Jan. 20 at 11 pm and is presented by friend and ex-Public Image Ltd bassist, Jah Wobble.

"Sid Vicious is possibly the most popular and visible icon of the punk movement. Malcolm McLaren once claimed that 'if Johnny Rotten is the voice of punk, then Sid Vicious is the attitude'," said MIM creative director Ashley Byrne. In In Search of Sid, Jah re-evaluates the enigma he thought he used to know with others who had a brush with this punk icon." The program contains previously un-broadcast archive of Vicious and his mother. There's also a new take on his death.
