Ozzy Osbourne's final months captured in two new documentaries as BBC and Paramount 'race to air unseen footage' following his death aged 76

Two documentaries charting the final years of Ozzy Osbourne are understood to be in a race to be aired following his death at the age of 76 following a battle with Parkinson's disease. The BBC and Paramount+ are said to be producing documentaries on the Black Sabbath star after filmmakers were given access to him for the final three years of his life. According to The Sun, both broadcasters are eager to be the first one to get their documentary released because interest will be high following Ozzy's passing. A source said: 'At this stage it's looking like the BBC might just pip Paramount+ to the post. 'But both organisations are keen to be the first to get them out there because they understand just how hugely popular Ozzy was and how well received these shows will be. 'Of course, there's an element of competition there, but their main priorities are producing two shows that are respectful and that the Osbourne family approve of.' MailOnline has contacted the BBC and Paramount+ for comment. Paramount+ announced their Ozzy documentary Ozzy Osbourne: No Escape From Now earlier this year. The company said it will be 'a deeply personal portrait of the rock legend's harsh new realities and his battle to take the stage for one final performance.' The final performance the film will document was Black Sabbath's Back to the Beginning show in Birmingham on July 5 - just 17 days before the singer's death. The BBC, meanwhile, are said to be putting the final touches on their documentary - originally called Home To Roost - and will follow the Osbourne's return to live in England after years in LA. Ozzy was diagnosed with Parkinson's during this time but filmmakers were permitted to carry on with the documentary. A third documentary on Ozzy is said to be in the works from Sony but that is not expected to be released until next year. According to his death certificate, the singer died from an 'acute myocardial infarction' and 'out of hospital cardiac arrest'. Ozzy was laid to rest on the grounds of his own mansion in Buckinghamshire last week during a private funeral attended by his family and a host of rock royalty. His widow Sharon, 72, and their children were joined by stars including Marilyn Manson and Ozzy's lead guitarist Zakk Wylde during the event at the family's 250-acre estate near Gerrards Cross. The concert - three weeks before his death - saw him reunite with his original Black Sabbath bandmates for the first time since 2005. More than 42,000 fans packed into the venue for the Back To The Beginning show, during which he told the crowd in his final speech: 'You've no idea how I feel - thank you from the bottom of my heart.'
