We’ve already posted Lennon Naked in the upcoming DVDs section, but we believe it deserves a bit more of a call-out. The telefilm, which covers Lennon’s final years in England, stirred a lot of buzz when the BBC aired it this summer, especially for Christopher Eccleston (Doctor Who). He has already been tipped as the man to beat for the Best Actor Award in next year’s TV BAFTAs. That’s Naoko Mori (Torchwood, Absolutely Fabulous) channeling Yoko Ono. Fans of Lark Rise to Candleford will recognize Claudie Blakeley as Lennon’s first wife, Cynthia. The DVD will follow the premiere on Masterpiece this fall.

Talk about Doctor Whoing the Beatles….
It’s great that it wil be available for US audiences to see. I saw it last week and it is very well done, and umm
very naked!
Eccleston was a fantastic doctor, an amazing character in the series “heros” and so many more. I am looking forward to seeing this. It should be fantastic.
