The Problematic Gaze
Join Lee and Dave for lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture of yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. Should they be 'cancelled' or celebrated? What can we learn from them? Does the mention of 'Mrs Slocombe's pussy' send you into hysterical laughter or moral outrage? Or are you just as confused as us as to how we should feel? Perhaps a glass of wine would help?
