BBC Two - The Culture Show, 2011/2012, Sir Terence Conran on Culture

Alan Yentob talks to Sir Terence Conran, one of Britain’s greatest designers.

Alan Yentob talks to Sir Terence Conran, one of Britain’s greatest designers and one of his heroes, about the revolutionary transformation he made to British life and style. 

In tribute to the late British designer Sir Terence Conran, a repeat of a programme first shown in 2011.

Alan Yentob talks to his hero Sir Terence Conran, perhaps one of Britain’s greatest designers, about the revolutionary transformation he made to British life and style. A designer, retailer and restaurateur, Conran pioneered a new way of life that he wanted to be available to all with his vision of ‘easy living’.

They discuss the work he contributed to the Festival of Britain in the 1950s, and his vision of a new way of living which he cemented with the opening of the high street shop Habitat in 1964, giving us stylish design for the everyday, from kitchen utensils to furniture.
