WACKO ABOUT JACKO
Tuesday 4th January 2005
Channel 4 (UK)
9pm
Michael Jackson has always had a special relationship with his fans. But now he faces ten charges of child molestation. He's pleaded not guilty and thousands of his fans worldwide are standing by their idol.
So just who are his biggest fans and how far will they go to support the man they love? With Jackson's court case approaching, "Wacko about Jacko" takes a full, frank and personal look into the lives of Michael Jackson's biggest fans.
Superfan Danny has been wacko about Jacko since he was six years old. His best friend Anika is planning a support event for British Jackson fans, with the world's self-proclaimed number one Jackson impersonator, Navi, topping the bill. But Navi's not pleased when he hears that it'll be Danny who performs Billie Jean at the event…
Thirty-two-year-old Emmanuel from Belgium has had eight operations to look like Jackson. The programme follows him to the Netherlands for operation number nine, a painful and expensive hair transplant. Meanwhile, Danny and Anika have heard that Jackson will be making a public appearance in Las Vegas and have raided their savings to fly to the States, even though there's no guarantee that their hero will be there. After leaving Las Vegas, they drive for over eight hours to Neverland before heading to his hearing, where Danny sets off on a dramatic chase to get a glimpse of his hero…
