The story of the making of Hysteria featuring interviews with Joe Elliott, Rick Allen, Phil Collen and Rick Savage together with others involved in recording the album.

Joe and Phil play acoustic versions of ‘Pour Some Sugar On Me; and Hysteria, and Sav and Phil demonstrate riffs and licks from the songs and explain the genesis of the song writing.
