Taylor
Season 1 Episode 1 of 2
Two part documentary examining Taylor Swift's rise to fame, from country prodigy to pop phenomenon. Starting from the beginning of her career, teenage Taylor emerges as a country prodigy and slowly gains fame until the moment Kanye West interrupts her speech at an award ceremony, propelling the young country starlet to a different order of global fame. The underdog is born. Her response to adversity is to write a song about it, take control of the narrative and bounce back. But just as Taylor is on the verge of going even more stratospheric, she's hit by an online cancellation that surely exceeds even her powers of reinvention. How will she bounce back from this?
Taylor airs on Channel 4 at 9:15 PM, Tuesday 30 September. (Subtitles, audio description, new.)
