Controversially... That Was the Year That Was: Season 1, Episode 10

1 - 10: 1968: Most Shocking Moments

Controversies, scandals and shocks in TV, film, music and politics, when the violent protests that had shocked France, Czechoslovakia and the US arrived in Britain after a peaceful demonstration against the Vietnam War erupted into the Grosvenor Square riot. On TV, the confusing finale of The Prisoner had viewers up in arms, the contentious opinions of Alf Garnett appalled many, and Kirk's kiss with Uhura in Star Trek was hailed as the first interracial kiss on mainstream US television. Narrated by Jan Leeming, with contributions by Paul Nicholas, John Sergeant, Stephanie Beacham, Nick Hewer, Anne Hegerty, Arlene Phillips, Penny Smith, Daliso Chaponda and Mark Little.
