Those interviews were all released on one disc from the Freddie Mercury box set ten disc and two DVD disc set from 2000, unless those Wigg interviews were released before that I'm unsure someone may correct me if I'm wrong.
Hi,
Here are the transcripts that I just found link
and after reading a very interesting find in something Freddie said.
This is the end of the 1986 Magic Tour interview below. I won't cut and paste
The beginning of the 1987 Ibiza interview cuz it's long but Freddie begins with saying he's in the best relationship ever, to that effect anyway. He must of had to defend what he said here. Being that he was sick. He may have been in a catch 22. Keep Jim Hutton around or risk his going to the press. I don't know but it seems he's saying he's stuck in a relationship here.
What do you think?

Freddie: Yeah, I am, I'm very content, I'm very, it's not what I thought I, I would be happy with, so it's like, you know what I mean, you always sort of have a go in terms of happiness, in terms of love, but I, I quite like it, it's something that I had to sort of um, come to terms with if you know what I mean, which is completely new to me, like, I mean you always sort of think this is the goal I want, and you strive for that, and suddenly for me I think I've been sort of pushed in, at a tangent, and suddenly I feel, OK this is the way I am and you have to sort of make the best of it, does that make sense? It's
David: No (laughter)
Freddie: It's like to me, you have your ideals or whatever in terms of, OK, but in terms of love and everything I always thought that it would be this way, and, and in, in term, in that area I've tried and tried and I've failed, and suddenly I've just been put in a different direction where I feel that's where I, I, my happiness lies, rather than sort of have a one to one basis, I don't, I don't think that's, that's what um, I feel I'm gonna get out of my life, where I have a complete one to one, I feel that I can have a one to one thing with a lot of people around, this is what, what I think is, is going to be (David: your life) my life, and I think I have to come to terms with it and I'm, if you tell yourself that that's what's gonna be then you have to just, then you just let the steam off one end and just say fuck, it's not gonna happen that way, do it over here and, and you know, don't get so tangled up in it, otherwise you're just gonna lose out, you're gonna drop dead one day and say 'oh my God'. I am, honestly, quite content, I really am
David: And you've become quite serious, haven't you Freddie?
Freddie: Serious in terms of what?
David: About everything?
Freddie: I've always been serious
David: Have you?
Freddie: But I still have a flippant nature (David: yes, yes) you have to have that (David: yes, yes), but um, I suppose I mean, you know, being thirty nine, sort of, you look upon it in a more sedate way, for a more sort of, you know, I'm not as um
David: Do you have a fear of middle age, like some people?
Freddie: Not at all, no, it's a very difficult life for people in our, in our position, as you know, and the slightest thing can turn it all back, and sometimes you can actually, you can be a very strong person, and you can build it all up and against all odds you've got that, and it takes one tiny little thing, like, I mean something you've put, and it's always, it's to do with love, I think love always comes first, it's always there, and love can always let you down, and that little four letter word can actually send you cart wheeling back
David: And you feel it all stems from basically from love because you have all that wealth, all that success?
Freddie: No, I think I'm, I'm just saying in my point of view I think yeah, I think love's always the one that is the hardest to sort of achieve and it's the one that can let you down the most, most often, so it can be, I think, in, in ways that you, various ways that you can sort of pinpoint it, it always sort of ends up at love, I tell you
