Do Not Adjust Your Set (Series 1 episode 13)
The last show of the first series sees everybody larking about somewhat.
Director: Daphne Shadwell
Overview
The last show in the Rediffusion series sees everybody larking about somewhat. The demob-happy Bonzos interrupt their pre-recorded backing track to make a row and trash the set something like a junior The Who, and some rather adult material surfaces – as we glimpse a Roman orgy and a ‘groovy’ Conservative politician delivering a party-political broadcast which surely had younger kids scratching their heads.
