The Execution Of Gary Glitter
''The Execution of Gary Glitter'' is a 2009 British television drama, produced by Juniper Communications Limited and broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK. Set in a parallel Britain, the film follows an imaginary trial and execution by hanging of former glam rock singer Gary Glitter, who has been convicted for possession of child pornography and rape of minors, for "offences against children".
