Nick Cave’s Veiled World
9pm, Sky Arts
With TV viewers getting to know his Bunny Munro character, this is a timely journey through the life and times of Nick Cave. Along the way, Irvine Welsh, Bella Freud, regular collaborator Mick Harvey and many more explore Cave’s transgressive, redemptive artistry. Particularly fascinating and moving is the section addressing the aftermath of the death of Cave’s son Arthur and the making of his Ghosteen album. As writer Sean O’Hagan suggests: “He found a place where Arthur exists.” Phil Harrison
