BBC 2 is celebrating all things Kate Bush tonight.
Three special programmes will air in honour of the legendary singer, who has reached new audiences over recent months since her music featured in Stranger Things. The 1985 classic, Running Up That Hill, has become the sound of the summer after it played a key role in the latest season of the hit Netflix Show.
Kate's dominance of the prime time Saturday night schedule begins with Kate Bush at the BBC at 8pm. This will be followed by a special documentary exploring the 64-year-old's ground-breaking career.

The night will be completed with a Christmas special at the BBC which Kate recorded in 1979. Kate first shot to stardom in 1978 when she released Wuthering Heights.
The eclectic singer achieved global success and went on to release 10 studio albums, but she always eschewed the limelight and only ever embarked on one UK tour. The singer's reclusive nature meant she has always been shrouded in mystery, but ITV News have unearthed an interview she gave ahead of a performance at the Liverpool Empire on her one and only UK tour.
The Tour of Life opened at the Empire on April 3, 1979 - and Kate gave an insight into her craft during a discussion with Liverpool legend, Margi Clarke, for Granada's What's On. She said: "I consider myself and the performer as two completely different entities. Now I'm talking to you as me, but if I was on the stage now I would be a very different person."
Margi interviewed Kate as Wuthering Heights reached number 1 in the charts - and the singer described the feeling as "unbelievable". She said: "I was lost for a sensation really. It was amazing and I couldn't believe it."
The Letter to Brezhnev actress spoke to Kate as she was on the cusp of superstardom and urged the singer to use some of Liverpool's luck to aid her stratospheric rise. She said: "Liverpool is a very lucky city and it will probably cast a spell on you. Make sure you keep mementos from it."
