<\/a>\"\"Mark your calendars! George Michael’s final interview will air on November 1 and November 8 on BBC Radio 2.<\/p>\n

George Michael: The Red Line is a two-part interview of 60 minutes each.\u00a0 It will be broadcast for the first time on BBC Radio 2 on Wednesday, November 1, and Wednesday, November 8 at 10 p.m.<\/p>\n

Kirsty Young interviewed George Michael as a part of the George Michael: Freedom documentary, which aired earlier this week in the UK.<\/p>\n

After George’s death, it was decided that this, his final interview, should be released to the public.<\/p>\n

The BBC article states:<\/p>\n

Although it had never been the intention to broadcast their conversation in its entirety, following George\u2019s untimely death only a few weeks later, it began to feel like something that should happen. In fact, as they parted, George said to Kirsty: “You should turn this into a radio programme.”<\/p>\n

George Michael: The Red Line is his final interview, told in almost all it\u2019s [sic] entirety with many of the personal asides left as they were.<\/p>\n

Lewis Carnie, Head of Radio 2 says: “The Radio 2 listeners continue to love and remember George Michael and his music, and I’m glad that they will be able to hear his final, very special interview on the station.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
