Timeshift: The Golden Age of the Tram - A Streetcar Named Desire - BBC4 Nov 3 8 pm

"A history of trams in Britain, exploring why they became popular in cities and towns at the start of the 20th century".

(This might be a repeat?)

Interesting social history S_A. I like the concept of the "modesty flap" on the stairs!

I believe this has been broadcast at least twice previously (IIRC) - it's an interesting programme, though, especially for we that like to reminisce. Could perhaps do with a "modesty flap" these days - or maybe not!

Getting into a modesty flap was all the rage once. They did things differently then.
