WOMEN and PUBS
Laurie Taylor is joined by Dr Claire Langhamer, Senior Lecturer at the University of Sussex to discuss her study of the changes in women's leisure in the 20th Century and the impact of the war on women's drinking preferences. Drawing on the work of mass observation in the 1930s and 1940s, Dr Langhamer reveals how attitudes to women and alcohol have changed.
DISCO
Laurie Taylor traces the history of disco music with Peter Shapiro, Journalist and author of Turn the Beat Around: The Secret History of Disco and Bill Brewster , DJ and expert on dance music culture. From its roots in the New York gay scene, rising phoenix-like from the flames of a post-Vietnam, Nixon era America, they examine an age of hedonism, strobe lighting and the glitterball to discover disco's impact on the pubs and clubs of a drab 1970s Britain.
