The 70s, episode 3: 'Goodbye Great Britain 75-77'
For those of you in the UK:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01hbs5x/The_70s_Goodbye_Great_Britain_7577/
From the listing:
| Quote: | Historian Dominic Sandbrook takes viewers on an eye-opening and refreshing journey deep into the 1970s, a decade where the old Britain of the post-war years was transformed into the nation of today.
This episode looks at the Britain of 1975-77. New sex discrimination laws challenged the British bloke, while football hooliganism and industrial unrest heralded the end of the post-war peace. Equal pay and rights meant that women could, technically, work on an equal standing to men. Dominic contrasts their new 'equality' with the epidemic of casual sexism in British culture.
Fighting on the football terraces brought the national game into disrepute, while in industry there was a sense that Britain was slipping out of control: despite the government ploughing millions into British Leyland, the company was unable to control its workforce or to make cars that people wanted.
And in the midst of silver jubilee fever, a different cultural force was challenging society. Punk, embodied by the Sex Pistols, was sweeping the nation.
Broadcast on BBC Two, 9:00PM Mon, 30 Apr 2012

Tim you might have been corrupted by the long legs on the bonnet. Now that was the way to advertise cars!
