Radio Times review

"The universe was trying to teach me a lesson, I guess," Madonna says, referring to that dramatic tumble during the Brit Awards that gave her whiplash and almost broke the internet. In an interview filmed the day after her fall, she denies it was a stunt designed to reflect the lyrics of her song. As well as singing tracks from her new album Rebel Heart, she touches on her attitude towards drugs and her latent desire to become a comedian.
