The Public Ear was a bold new arts show, broadcast on The Light Programme in 1963, which tried to make sense of all the amazing things that were happening in London and the UK in music, art, theatre, comedy, football, politics and feminism. Travel back in time for a Year in the Life of the Swinging Sixties, for archive unheard for these last 60 years - the precise moment that Beatlemania started and the National Theatre was founded, a time when broadcasters could ask people on the street who they'd drop a bomb on.
Joan Bakewell was there the first time around and puts these amazing archive finds into context.
With special thanks to Dame Joan Bakewell, Keith Wickham of The Radio Circle, Helen Toland and Amy McGarrigle
