Synopsis:

Brian Hill gained unparalleled access to Robbie Williams, following him on his European arena tour in February 2001, and had complete editorial freedom when completing the film, resulting in this intimate fly-on-the-wall documentary, which is an entertaining expose of the psychological pressures of stardom. The title, a reference to Williams' autobiography 'Somebody Someday', is a reflection of the mood that director Brian Hill found Robbie in when he began following his every move. Off the drink and drugs and disillusioned with his fame, Robbie cuts a sombre figure far removed from his cheeky persona. An omnipresent press core, technical problems, and the deranged fan that pushed him off stage in Stuttgart hardly improve his mood. Gradually however, Williams rediscovers his good humour and realises it's not that bad being an international showbiz celebrity. It's hard to feel much sympathy for Robbie and his millions, but Hill does manage to peel away some of the cocky artifice his subject has constructed around himself. Robbie's comic nature and ability to set himself up and mock his critics also help us to warm to him.
