First of a new series revisiting Britain's design heritage in a journey spanning four decades and taking in iconic architecture, interiors, fashion and accessories.
Designing the '60s. With post-war blues a thing of the past, the 1960s heralded an international explosion in British pop culture. Among the designs that sprang from the flurry of innovation were the miniskirt, which actually brought about a change in the tax laws, the Austin Mini, a cult car which broke through class barriers, and one of the most famous album covers of all time - the Beatles'
Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Adam Faith ,
Terence Conran , Mary Quant and Tony Benn talk about this exhilarating decade. Presented by Penelope Keith.

Concluding Mark Lamarr 's four-part history of US comedy. Stand Up is Dead, Long Live Stand Up. The early nineties saw many US comedians move from the stage to the small screen. But while performers like Jerry Seinfeld ,
Garry Shandling and Roseanne Barr followed Bill Cosby 's lead, a new generation of black stand-up comedians, such as Chris Rock and the Original Kings of Comedy, began to emerge. Contains strong language and potentially offensive material.
