Burning Issue: Sex and Violence in Art

BBC One
on BBC One London

The last decade has seen a great shift in public attitudes to both sex and violence. What was impermissible, unspeakable, is now the subject of plays, films, novels, and television programmes.
Sunday Night asks: Do we pay too high a price for artistic freedom? Is this new freedom a danger to society?
Robert Robinson is in the chair, and round the table are:
Peter Brook, stage and film director
Geoffrey Gorer, anthropologist
Mary McCarthy, novelist
George Steiner, Fellow of Churchill College, Cambridge
