BBC to air Coming Home Ozzy Osbourne documentary on Oct 2

A one-hour BBC documentary chronicling the final years of Ozzy Osbourne and his return to the United Kingdom will air Thursday, Oct. 2 at 9 p.m. BST on BBC One and on the BBC iPlayer streaming service, the broadcaster announced after releasing the film's trailer. Filmed over three years, the documentary follows Ozzy and his wife Sharon Osbourne as they plan and execute a move from Los Angeles back to their Buckinghamshire home and captures the singer's preparation for what became his final performance with Black Sabbath in Birmingham.
