Robbie Williams

Those scoring this 1 star because he was 'narcissistic' completely misunderstand how open and forthcoming he was in the making of this documentary.

I was never a fan of Take That and same with Robbie. A gf dragged me reluctantly to a show he performed in Sydney and wow he blew me away despite my love for much harder music. He was the ultimate entertainer and I'd never seen a crowd so obsessed - of course I wasn't around during The Beatles era.

Amazing to see him look back so honestly on periods of his life - his fame, his addictions, his mental breakdowns, his regrets, his loves and so on.

Definitely recommend this and ignore the haters - of which he had many (including me in my insecure days)

The first time I saw Robbie Williams on my television, it was on MTV, I was six years old and my mother didn't allow me to watch that video of him taking his skin off. Any time I would see that music video happening on my television, I would lower the volume so my mother wouldn't hear that I was listening to Rock DJ and imitating Williams dancing. At that young age, both the video and the song caught my attention too much. For my birthday that same year, I asked my parents if they could give me as a gift the album where I could listen to Rock DJ, so that way I wouldn't need to wait for MTV to play it every time.

Sing When You're Winning was my very first album. Robbie Williams was my very first favorite musician.

I'm telling this story because here I am, watching this documentary. I am almost thirty years old, and I'm seeing not only how they made one of my favorite songs, but I am seeing how it was made, and a version of Robbie Williams that I never saw before.

We as his fans were given the opportunity to have a look at a much private and never seen before footage of what Robbie went through. Robbie opens the door to the memories of his youth, his early career, his fears and anxiety, his addictions and his journey until today, and it feels as if he was taking off his skin, once again.

I did not know that this documentary was coming out, but I'm grateful for it. And I think my mother will now allow me to watch it.

I would imagine that Robbie has been, and still is, hard to live with over the years, At times appearing sad, manic, bolshy but not often happy, it's nice to know that now he finally does seem at peace in his life with his wife and children.

He made some really good music, some not so good, and clearly alienated a lot of people over the years. Being from Leeds, I found it sad that his two massive concerts in Leeds in 2006 were so traumatic for him.

I'd have liked to have had some input from his parents as his Dad, in particular, was often seen with him in the past and they seemed very close.

His house is absolutely gorgeous and I just hope that he is now in a good, calm and happy state of mind as he approaches 50. He is massively talented and hopefully he's lost his demons and can enjoy the rest of his life with his family, whether in the limelight or not.

Oh Robbie I just want to give you a big hug 🤗 The British press are evil they ruin peoples lives it's just so heartbreaking watching the story of how they broke Robbie down.

He is a true entertainer who has spanned years and years from Take That to forge such an amazing solo career.

You either love him or hate him the ones who hate I feel have been swayed by the British tabloids who want to tear him down because he's so good.

Ayda what a shining light she is in his life to help him out of the dark tunnel he was heading in to.

The reunion between him and Take that was a beautiful moment to have seen on screen

Loved the documentary and for all you people saying he's a narcissist do you even understand why his documentary is filmed this way 10/10 for me highly recommend.

Watching the 200 minutes of a real true rock stars career was extremely interesting and truly helps you understand the enormity of the pressures they contend with. My respect for Robbie has skyrocketed since watching the 4 episodes and I hope the Americans wake up to this amazing entertainer. Now a family man with 4 kids, lovely house, gorgeous smart understanding wife and so much to live for I'm proud to be British when there is talent like RW about. He is an entertainer, an honest one and has never deserved the treatment those pathetic U. K. newspapers used to dish out. I like the way Robbie looks back through the screen of his computer to tell the story of his life. MJ, Prince and Any Winehouse never did this and that's a loss for history. Good on you Robbie for doing this doco. It's a shame he didn't show a bit of the Royal Albert Hall gig Swing when you're winning. For me this also showed what a talented showman he is. Robbie, for a potteries lad you have done so much to put a smile on so many faces, now smile a lot more as you deserve it dude !!
