This is a compilation of every time Joy Division appeared on television, mainly for my own listening use. Only the last two on BBC's Something Else were broadcast across all of the UK - before that, they only appeared locally on television in the Northwest of England. 00:00 - Shadowplay, Granada Reports, 20th September 1978 Only broadcast in the Northwest, and my personal favourite. Peter Hook was peeved here as he also came from Salford, not just Bernard. Credits to FageOner for remastering the footage to such a beautiful quality. Original video can be found here: 4:41 - She's Lost Control, What's On (Granada TV), 20th of July 1979 Only broadcast in the Northwest, this episode was lost from its original broadcast to around October 2020, 41 years. The full footage is still lost, with only around half of it recovered. Notably, the Granada archives show a different broadcast date for this episode, showing the 19th of July rather than the 20th. Once again, credits to FageOner for remastering the footage, even if their remaster's quality is completely ruined by my reupload. Original video: 7:18 - Transmission, Something Else (BBC2), 15th September 1979 Broadcast nationwide. This is by far the most well-preserved and well-known of all of JD's live performances. Recorded on the 1st of September along with She's Lost Control. Original video on the Joy Division channel: 10:30 - She's Lost Control, Something Else (BBC2), 15th September 1979 Broadcast nationwide. She's Lost Control was recorded before Transmission and shown before it on the original broadcast, I just have it last on this video because I don't like the song as much as Transmission. This video is one of the best showcases of Ian Curtis' unique flailing dancing style. Original video:
