The highly anticipated BBC documentary *Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home* finally has a new broadcast date after its unexpected postponement earlier this summer. The one-hour film, originally scheduled to air on Monday 18th August, was mysteriously pulled from the BBC One lineup just hours before its planned premiere. At the time, the BBC released a brief statement: *“Our sympathies are with the Osbourne family at this difficult time. We are respecting the family’s wishes to wait a bit longer before airing this very special film.”*
Now, fans can mark their calendars—*Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home* will officially air on BBC One and iPlayer at 9 p.m. on Thursday 2nd October. The documentary promises an intimate and emotional look at Ozzy’s return to the UK, chronicling his reflections on fame, family, health struggles, and his enduring legacy as one of rock’s most influential frontmen.
The film reportedly features candid interviews with Ozzy, Sharon, and their children, along with previously unseen footage from inside the Osbourne family home. It aims to show a more personal side of the Prince of Darkness, exploring how his life has changed since stepping away from extensive touring.
But that’s not all for fans of the metal icon. A separate two-hour documentary, *Ozzy: No Escape From Now*, is set to premiere on Paramount+ on Tuesday 7th October in the UK and internationally. This film takes a broader, more cinematic look at Ozzy’s life and career, from his early days in Birmingham to his reign as a global rock legend.
With both documentaries arriving within days of each other, October is shaping up to be a special month for Ozzy fans worldwide—a rare double feature celebrating the legacy of one of music’s most enduring and iconic figures.
