A Social Institution

First transmitted in 1964, a variety of couples throughout the country describe the modern landscape of married life in Britain with informed comment from a psychologist, a sociologist and a research psychiatrist. Explore the brave new suburban world of Pat and Dickie, who are living on a freshly built estate in Berkshire with its detached houses, social dislocation and housebound wives club, and contrast this with Walter Fife's description of family life in the tenements of the Gorbals.
