A Secret World of Sex

on BBC Two England

The British experience of sex in the first half of the century. Forbidden Fruit. For many people the taboo against sex outside marriage dominated their lives. Men and women tell of their first secret, sexual encounters under the pier at Blackpool. Some recall being sent to mental hospitals as young women for having sex under age or illegitimate babies. Many were locked away for 20 or 30 years. See panel below.
