The British humour in Hooky saying Ian was the laziest member for being dead is heartwarming, making light of a dark situation and still referring to him as a member

Keith: Who's the laziest member of the group? Peter: *Ian Curtis* That was brutal

Bernard getting his haircut while being interviewed 💀

That narration. I just can't.

'Go and make a cup of tea, drop an E and come back in 2 minutes' - That is the most 90s thing i have ever heard

26 years later and this documentary still pulls you in like the first day I brought it home from the shop.

40:00 Stephen: "on the opening night [of the Hacienda] I had to pay to get in". I almost pissed myself laughing.

I’ve watched this a dozen times and every time I always feel a bit differently about everyone. Besides Bono, what a tool.

I loved Joy Division as a teenager and then New Order as a young adult. They defined us back then. I finally got to see New Order somewhere around 1990 in Milwaukee and it was an outdoor concert in the summer. Great memories!

I once missed a New Order concert in Amsterdam because I had an epileptic seizure the night before. The irony......

One thing that we can all be sure of watching this, is that NOBODY loves Bono more than Bono.

New Orders story straddles both tragedy and comedy in a way that's unique. It's probably why they sound them way they do

Don't matter what they were called...best band ever.and I love them

I always wanted to be a human drum machine. He definitely did it. Stephen Morris is just that.

God, Bono is so up himself!

Narrator killed this for me. Made it just over 2 minutes.

Re-title this documentary as "New Order: A.S.M.R"

The narrator makes this unwatchable. We GET it! It's a dark and serious story without that fake brooding tone.

The narrator and random cuts of bono make this documentary surprisingly comedic

Love this documentary. Have it on VHS; hadn't seen it for ages. Everything is so special. They are so special. Our lives wouldn't be the same without them.

Many fond memories Joy Division; Love will tear us apart . New Order ceremony; Age of Consent,Blue Monday, Confusion ,True Faith, Bizarre Love Triangle, thieves like us , Perfect Kiss all stir my spirit and bring back a flood of memories.

This debuted on TV the same night as they played at Reading in 93. I left the gig and ran home up to Caversham heights where I was staying and caught this on tv. These days I'm totally incapable of doing that but at least I could afford a taxi now :)

I love the dark humor! I can see the therapy in it and it’s healing.

ONE OF THE GREATEST BANDS OF ALL TIME

I taped this on VHS and watched it over fifty times .. this documentary opened my eyes and made me move to England and be part of the industry. Bastards.

fucking hell bono is in nearly every band documentary...ever

So as a young punk, I bought Movement loved it. Power, Corruption & Lies I bought second. But from the US I never knew where they came from. Joy Division. I never knew that band. But now I do. Wow. Now I understand how the song started. Cheers!

electronic debut album was truly brilliant

Great documentary, very different from most music documentaries: the TV game with Keith Allen, the narrator's voice, the "informal" conversation between the four of them (shot in Montreux, for the record), the fact that it also speaks about frustration, misunderstanding and resentment (Gretton's no comment for instance), all these things make this documentary very new order like. It's cheesy at times and cool at others, it's happy and sad, it's avant garde and lame and it's never where you thought it would go. That's New Order.

Thank U for this. Happy birthday to Bernard, yesterday. Big ups. Madchester!

Wow! That SUNKIST commercial was BRILLIANT!

Bono singing the wrong words at 10:33 is rly funny

There is never a reason to put Bono in any music documentary

Brazilian fan🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 Bizarre love triangle, The perfect Kiss, Round end round, Regret, Love vigilantes, Blue monday, TrueFaith, Subculture are the New Order songs that played the most on brazilian radio 28-12-2020

I can’t watch this video without feeling like I’m being hypnotised into a sleep state. I’m now going to search you tube for an alternative new order documentary but thanks anyway

Thank you guys!

Huge NewOrder fan. Saw them at the Hollywood Bowl in 93 for the first time when I was 16.

Her narration in the intro section always makes my eyes water. This is a story...They are like family. A soundtrack for life

Just timestamps for those who have favorite parts or likes skimming. 4:56 *neworderstory* 7:22 *Wilson* "I just happen to run into some amazing people." 8:00 *Gillian* “I wanted to be in a group with a bunch of girls.” 8:10 *Gretton* "I love the _idea_ of New Order." 8:23 *Savage* "...This very dark gloomy gothic rock group became disco divas." 8:33 *Curtis* "...I could daydream all day." 9:04 *Bono* , zookeeper. 9:17 *Hook* "...The swashbuckling rip-roaring drunk or womanising moron..." 10:24 *Tennant* "I could never really pin New Order down." 11:00 *Morris* "I'd always wanted to be a drum machine." 12:44 *Sumner* "As soon as I open my mouth, I give too much of myself away." 14:49 *Berg* "Their honesty and openness is what gets them into trouble..." 21:24 *Tong* "You think, god, how do they keep up?" 21:38 *Baker* "...They're just people making records, trying to have a good time." 23:14 *Jones* "Bernard, Stephen, Gillian, Peter - I think you're beautiful." 25:57 *Robie* "...I'm not really sure how they make their music." 28:36 *Saville* "...They were doing it their own way - whatever that was." 35:55 *Barnes* "...We all fancy ourselves a bit as popstars, don't we?" 38:35 *H.

The narration fades away after a while. Great documentary .

Great documentary! Thank you for posting 👍

GAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!! THE NARRATION MAKES MY SKIN CRAWL

I was just going to university when they released this. What a great time! Joy Division and New Order thanks for making my life better!!!

Not seen this since it was on ITV. Thanks for the upload.

very awkward when the narrator mentions Ian Curtis' suicide with that porn voice

i'm trying to watch a documentary..why do i feel like someone's trying to get me into bed?..or am i in therapy..?..

A bit of nostalgia. I'm going to be 60 this month and Joy Division and New Order were both often on the turntable or in the cassette player first when I was in the military in Greece (I think that's when it was) like 1983-1984 something like that and then all the way through after I got out in 1988 and up to whenever Brotherhood came out which was the last album by them I bought. I don't know what happened after that. I don't remember if they broke up or they didn't play them on the radio or why I didn't buy anything after that. I loved everything both bands ever did that I heard. Just solid writing, playing, singing, lyrics always great.

So much uncertainty in the end, it's 1993, will they continue?? Well, 25 years later, still going!

The narrator sounds like Juliette Lewis on mogadons.

Very interesting concept for a film. I liked it.

I bought the American version of this in the early nineties, then a VHS bootleg of the Japanes version of this in the late nineties, and then the the worldwide DVD version in the early 2000s. I've never gotten tired of it.

They need to make a movie about rob gretton

To me, the narrator sounds like the DJ from KBilly's Super Sounds Of The 70's in Reservoir Dogs

I miss everything about Factory records I love Manchester RIP Tony Wilson Ian Curtis The Hacienda and thanks for all the best drug induced intoxicated days and nights of hedonistic happinesses The music the drugs the women the clubs the parties it was the best ride ever that’ll always be forever written in my heart New Order your amazing and always will be

I think Bono should win a nobel prize, as long as he never talks again.

I was going to watch but after 10 minutes I had enough of adverts.

What I learned, is these guys, come from a social culture of going to the pub and having a crack. Joking around, having fun. They will pretty much joke about anything. "Who is the laziest band member? Ian." They are not going to to be sitting together talking about their deep dark feelings, most of the time. Which makes it understandable how things happened. It seems to be, "Yeah, life is hard, stick it out with us."

There's a lot of moments in this where Bernard is pretty much telling everyone else not to talk I can see where he gets a control freak reputation

I love the narration.

Oh my god, I'll turn to 59 this crappy Covid-19 year but I'm glad my kids love JD & NO just cuz I played Luv will tear us apart & Regret when I used to drive them to elementary school. Seen them (NO) on stage in the early 80's and I guess I can die peacefully with these memories in mind.

Gee, this is funny! I was laughing at all the sarcastic comments by the band et al. Loved seeing them sitting around laughing about their misfortunes....and Barney calling Tony Wilson a ‘bleedin’parasite’ with a ‘missing left tooth’ to HIS FACE! Always felt New Order were having a laugh at themselves. This is such a train wreck and IMHO it’s what makes it so hilarious. Hacienda being a ‘yacht showroom’ and Stephen having to pay to get in! And yes....that narrator! 😂 Love New Order!

one of the best doco's ever...

Never get the credit they deserve, the most important band ever, they changed music

I remember this documentary was aired on tv in the UK the same night new order were headlining Reading festival in 93'. A very New Order thing to do!! It was a great gig if I remember. Good times.

Keith Allen and Bono vying for The World's Most Annoying title

I quite enjoyed this documentary, didn’t even mind the smokey-like narration (although even I admit to needing a cigarette after that). ❤️

Loved this when I came out xx

I still like this documentary. One of my favorite parts starts around 39:49, where Bernard talks about Factory buying any old nightclub. The stories they all must have! "Free drinks, cheap!" LOL! Then my other favorite part is right after this with Stephen launching into a hilarious speech about his personal experiences regarding the Hacienda. Still makes me laugh and smile. I kinda hope that this nomination for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will help bury the hatchet between Bernard and Hooky, but I'm not either of them and I can't hold my breath. I can only hope for the best!

Saw them in 1982 Queensferry Futurama, what a show that was. Before the disco biscuits

I find this doc every 3-4 years and as soon as that intro kicks in with the voice i almost hurl.... its too bad i really wanna watch lol.

Love will tear us apart someday - Bono 10:33

31:04 Thieves like us is also My Favorite New Order Song

That last scene with Bernie Sumner reminded of Mathew Broderick on Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Almost 9 minutes in and bang there he is: Bono.

it's so lovely to see the hold times with Hooky!

Good program!

The music was ? FANTASTIC!

Am I alone in actually liking the narration? I always thought it associated with New Order’s transatlantic connections although believe it is actually an English actress - Jenny Seagrove.

Love the soundtrack of this one :D

Pete Hook and his harem lol

If the narrator is reading this comments - ma'am, screw all these people, this was an absolute joy to listen to and watch.

Got this on DVD. Hardly watched it in years. The quiz is rubbish. The live footage & interviews are much better. Everyone Everywhere is a splendid song. Catchy and beautiful guitar riffs from Gillian. 👏

why are the peter interview clips in a brothel?

Omg.... This es amazing

This man bernard was getting his hair cut for like an hour fam.

The person narrating sounds like she just woke up on a Sunday after a long night out and taking pain killers

50:42 is heartbreak in retrospect.

This women’s voice, my gosh, I can’t

I’m just realizing now how Atmosphere echoes Heroes.

Hah, never knew what Tony Wilson was like in real life until I watched this, but Steve Coogan played him fucking perfectly in 24hr pp. This documentary is literally just the band taking the piss.

Is the narrator auditioning for an audiobook?? 😂😂😂

Thé narrator is simple unbearable

Joy Divison / New Order ... My LIfe ... Thanks for All, Your Infections Via Music ... U Inspiere Me .... I Love U

Oh ! Barney, Stephen and Peter, one of my fav band of all ... wait WHAT !? I would not have assumed that sir ! And in any timeline you pick !

Bono jumpscare

I feel happy to see hooky again 🖤😍😎

Великолепно! Это прям подарок!

The narrator sounds like shes doing a marks and spencer advert total turn off 👎

I"d like this documentary more if the game show clips & Bono were edited out.

thanks
