Pretty sure you will be able to download it from a (Removed) site, or just google... 'watch Antics roadshow online' I can usually stream any TV show or movie that way

TV show - Graffiti Wars, by bigtlt on Aug 14, 2011 10:58:07 GMT 1, Banquesy: The Frenchman - known as Blek le Rat - accusing Banky of stealing his 'guerilla art' style
His โguerrilla artโ has made him one of the most famous artists in the world, earning him a fortune and scores of celebrity admirers. But now Banksy has been accused by a Parisian graffiti artist of stealing his style. Xavier Prou, 59, who works under the name Blek le Rat, invented the life-sized stencil technique that Banksy would later use to make his name. Banksy, now believed to be 38, was still at primary school when Prouโs works began appearing in the backstreets of the French capital.
Spot the difference: How the earlier works by Parisian artist Blek le Rat compare with Banksy's graffiti style Twenty years later, when Banksyโs images started springing up across London, the similarities were unmistakable. He even had the temerity to use the French artistโs trademark rat stencil in some of his works, as well as the same life-sized images of men and soldiers. Blek le Rat has always refused to comment on the likeness to his own work. But in a Channel 4 documentary, Graffiti Wars, to be broadcast at 10.30pm tonight, he finally admits being angered by what he sees as Banksyโs plagiarism. He said: โI used to make a lot of soldiers, then I see Banksy making a lot of soldiers.
Angry: Xavier Prou, aka Blek le Rat has always refused to comment on the likeness of his own work - but he finally speaks out in a Channel 4 documentary โWhen I see Banksy making a man with a child or Banksy making rats, of course I see immediately where he takes the idea. I do feel angry. โWhen youโre an artist you use your own techniques. Itโs difficult to find a technique and style in art so when you have a style and you see someone else is taking it and reproducing it, you donโt like that. โIโm not sure about his integrity. Maybe he has to show his face now and show what kind of guy he is. โItโs true that some people say Banksy is a p***k and a lot of young people consider Banksy like a God.โ Banksyโs success was built partly on his anonymity and the myths that built up around him. It was always thought that he was a talented tearaway from an underprivileged background on an inner-city estate. But three years ago, The Mail on Sunday unmasked him as Robin Gunningham, a former public schoolboy who grew up in a middle-class suburb of Bristol.
Banksy was still at primary school when Prou's works began appearing on the backstreets of the French capital Blek le Rat was similarly privileged, growing up in an โhaute bourgeoisโ district of Paris. His father was an architect and his mother the daughter of a French consul in Thailand. He attended one of the best private schools in France. Banksy does not give interviews but in his unofficial biography he says of Blek le Rat: โEvery time I think Iโve painted something original I find out that Blek le Rat has done it as well, only 20 years earlier.โ He refused to comment on Blek le Ratโs comments in the documentary. Jane Preston, producer and director of Graffiti Wars, said: โBanksyโs an interesting character and after having met Blek le Rat and seen the similarity between their work, I really wanted to ask him about it, but unfortunately he declined.โ Blek le Rat is successful but has not enjoyed Banksyโs mainstream popularity. In 2007, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt spent ยฃ1 million on his stencils, and his works on buildings are now protected by councils despite being sprayed illegally.
