This brief clip from 2009 appeared on the BBC1 magazine program The One Show. John Lydon took part in a recurring series in which prominent Britons visit the residences in which they grew up. Lydon/Rotten lived at 6 Acres Estate in Finsbury Park, London, between the ages of 11 and 20.

The onetime scourge of all right-thinking people notes the improved appointments and fixtures in the humble flat; reminisces about Sid the hamster, who bit the finger of the young John Simon Ritchie, thus ensuring himself a place in the annals of hamster history; and points out the corner of the kitchen where he wrote, “in one go,” one of the most famous songs of the twentieth century—“God Save the Queen.” 
 

 
Take solace, younger readers suffering under totally unfair music volume restrictions, the neighbors both upstairs and downstairs detested the Beefheart and reggae Lydon liked to play.  Lydon appears to be quite emotionally affected by the visit, noting that the memories from all different times are “fairly flooding my head right now—and it’s not a pleasant feeling,” followed up with a classic Lydon cackle of displacement. Back in the studio with Adrian Chiles and Christine Bleakley, Lydon again professes to be choked up by the footage. (Adding to this is the fact that his father had died in that housing estate only one year earlier.)

You can see the same apartment in Julien Temple’s The Filth and the Fury—in this clip we get some home footage of Lydon’s mum Eileen around the 5:45 mark, joined by two of Lydon’s younger brothers, Martin and Bobby, around the 7:50 mark:
