Kick Out the Jams: The Story of XFM
Kick Out the Jams, which takes its name from the first song to play on their airwaves, charts the growth of XFM from its rebellious pirate radio roots in the early 1990s to its official FM radio premiere in 1997 as a significant platform for introducing alternative artists to the public. The documentary delves deeply into the hardships and impact of the radio station that gave rise to people like Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, whose international hits The Office and The Ricky Gervais Show were initially established while working at the radio station.
