The documentary where British smut gets the prestige TV treatment it absolutely didn't deserve.
A light-hearted celebration of British sex films from the 1950s to the early 1980s. Presented by Angus Deayton, the programme includes interviews with movie veterans Robin Askwith and Pamela Green, as well as featuring clips from popular X-rated movies like “Come Play with Me” (1977).
Acting
Deayton's perfectly dry, judgmental narration.
Production
Glorious grainy clips from forgotten British sexploitation.
Director
Kristiene Clarke
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
