It was announced today that David Gilmour will be one of the guest artists appearing as part of the week long series of Teenage Cancer Trust benefit shows in London. The shows, organised by the remaining members of The Who, will be held at the end of March/beginning of April, at the Royal Albert Hall, in Kensington.

Last night on digital TV channel BBC Four saw the latest episode of their series, "Time Shift", which featured the history of progressive rock. Pink Floyd was featured quite prominently and the viewer was treated to brief video clips of: Pow R Toc H and Astronomy from "Look Of The Week", Set The Controls from "All My Loving", four segments of an interview with Roger Waters, Money, Another Brick In The Wall part 2, and an interview with Chris Thomas about the making of DSOTM.

There were also video clips of The Beatles, Yes, The Nice, ELP, Genesis and Steve Hackett, as well as Focus and Tangerine Dream sessions on the Old Grey Whistle Test.

The good news for all those who missed it is that is is being repeated tomorrow (Wednesday January 21st) at 11pm - 11:40pm, and Monday January 26th at 1am - 1:40am. Our thanks to John Johnstone for the news of this great programme!

We were very pleased to be contacted by EMKA, Pink Floyd's management, at the end of the week. They have exclusively provided us with updates on a number of topics, and here is a precis of what they have told us:

An online game inspired by Pink Floyd's "The Division Bell" has become the subject of a documentary film. The soundtrack for "Stoners" comes entirely from the 1994 album and the band has, unusually, provided music rights for the worldwide festival circuit.
