The BBC abruptly pulled the documentary, Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home, which chronicles the final years of the late heavy metal legend, just hours before it was scheduled to air on Monday (August 18). The network gave no specific reason for the decision, stating only that the film had been “moved in the schedule,” without providing a future broadcast date. Filmed over three years with contributions from his wife Sharon and their children Jack and Kelly, the film is a “moving and inspirational account” of Ozzy’s struggle with Parkinson’s disease and subsequent surgeries. The doc captures intimate family moments as Ozzy prepared for his historic final performance at the “Back to the Beginning” concert in Birmingham, England on July 5, just weeks before his death on July 22 at age 76. Originally intended as a bookend on the family’s beloved MTV reality series, The Osbournes, the documentary is described as “a moving portrait of one of the world’s most entertaining families at a pivotal moment in their history.” (Billboard)
