Documentary series about Britain's biggest movies. Danny Boyle, John Hodge, Ewan McGregor and others remember the making of 1996 smash hit Trainspotting.

In 1996, Trainspotting introduced audiences to the shocking world of a group of heroin-using Scots junkies. Telling their stories, warts and all, made Trainspotting one of the most talked about movies of the decade.

Director Danny Boyle, screenwriter John Hodge and producer Andrew Macdonald are joined by Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Peter Mullin, Johnny Lee Miller and author Irvine Welsh in giving their thoughts on the movie.
