 * 7.25 pm Omnibus : Syd Barrett - Crazy Diamond (first showing on UK TV). An account of the disintegration of the Pink Floyd founder member whose excessive use of drugs such as LSD in the sixties led to his breakdown and departure from the band, and left him fighting his own demons in the intervening years. Barrett's name has passed into rock folklore and his legacy remains highly influential. Here, the remaining members of Floyd describe how he continues to haunt their lives and their music. Presented by Kirsty Wark.
