BBC Documentary Illuminates Ozzy Osbourne’s Final Years as Paramount+ Feature Nears

A newly aired BBC film reframes his final months through intimate family footage.

Overview

  • BBC One aired Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home on October 2 after a family-requested delay, retooled from a planned series into a one-hour special filmed over three years.
  • The film traces his move back to the UK and documents Parkinson’s, a 2019 spinal injury, and spring 2025 hospitalizations as he prepared for a July 5 Villa Park farewell with Black Sabbath.
  • Osbourne calls the final show emotional yet frustrating because he performed seated, and he tells Sharon he is retiring from public life.
  • He died at home on July 22 at 76; the death certificate cites out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease with autonomic dysfunction, with a private Buckinghamshire burial following a July 30 Birmingham procession.
  • Paramount+ will premiere a separate two-hour documentary, Ozzy: No Escape From Now, on October 7, covering his final six years with family accounts and career context.
