EndedDocumentary show

This series presents an affectionate look back at what it was like living through the early 1970s in Britain. The news stories, fads, fashions, and new essential items of a decade that moved into colour and changed everything. From Marc Bolan and David Bowie setting the new era of glam rock, eye-liner on men and the biggest platform heels and kids obsessing over new toys and transport like Clackers, Choppers and the Space hopper.

Episode 2

From the red, white and blue street parties of the Silver Jubilee and the explosion of punk to kids' essential viewing Grange Hill, and the birth of Saturday morning TV with Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, life was a kaleidoscope of colour – though food was largely brown, despite the best efforts of Fanny Cradock and Delia Smith to inspire us to new culinary heights. The arrival of the fridge freezer made Mum's life easier, and family dinners found new focus with the frozen chip!

Inflation meant the drive to Buy British was in full force. And learned to ‘Clunk Click Every Trip'. Mary Whitehouse went to war with ‘The Permissive Society' and the first flush of populist feminism saw girls make a stand for their rights.

Our obsession with Americana was fuelled by the arrival of fast-food chains on the high street and our disco dreams of Saturday Night Fever turned space age with the arrival of Star Wars. We glimpsed the future with Tomorrow's World tech and looked into the brave new world of the 80s with hope in our hearts.
