The video for the 1984 hit single 'I Want To Break Free,' which caused so much controversy in the US and was banned by many television broadcasters, is briefly addressed in this film. The track is from their 11th studio album 'The Works,' and was a sizable hit throughout most of Europe and the rest of the world. The video is an affectionate, humorous and somewhat camp parody of the long-running British television soap opera Coronation Street (1960), with the band members exaggeratedly dressed as female characters from that show. While most UK and British Commonwealth residents would have recognized the reference, many conservative American networks were either unaware of the joke or concerned that US viewers would be offended, and refused to show it. The song was thus never a sizable hit in the US.
