REWEAVING THREADS, 40 YEARS ON (320kbs-m4a/131mb/57mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 21st September 2024
40 years ago, a BBC film showing the grim reality of a post-nuclear world terrified a generation. Jude Rogers meets its cast and crew to unravel why it still haunts so many today.
It was a film that spawned a thousand nightmares, including the most terrifying traffic warden. When the Cold War film Threads was broadcast on BBC Two on the evening of Sunday 23rd September, many across the nation didn't sleep.
Directed by Mick Jackson and written by Barry Hines, Threads explored what would happen if a nuclear bomb went off in the city of Sheffield. The BBC production did what no other film had done to date - showing the grim reality of life after a nuclear attack in painstakingly researched and horrifying detail.
On a tiny budget and reliant on hundreds of willing extras from the city of Sheffield, Threads painted a picture so chilling that its images of melting milk bottles, urinating women, and the bleak wind of a nuclear winter have been branded into the memories of many of those who watched it when it was broadcast, or who have seen it since.
Jude Rogers saw Threads in the 1990s, when nuclear war seemed like a distant nightmare. She was drawn to the cult status of the film and the community of "Threads Heads" who re-watch it, discuss it, dissect it. But in today's world, with wars raging and increasing political instability and unrest, some believe Threads is starting to feel eerily relevant again.
With an original soundtrack from Jim Jupp of Belbury Poly, Jude speaks to the cast and crew of Threads, as well as those who've been fascinated by it since, to explore how Threads was made, and how it has haunted so many in the forty years since.
Featuring:
Mick Jackson, the director
Jan Nethercot, Head of Make Up on Threads
Reece Dinsdale, who played Jimmy
Catherine Taylor, who was an extra on Threads
Dave Forrest, Professor of English at the University of Sheffield
Sylvan Baker, Senior Lecturer at the Central School for Speech and Drama
Craig Ian Mann and Rob Nevitt, filmmakers
Neil Kinnock, former Leader of the Labour Party.
With thanks to Roger Bolton, Karen Meagher, and Jim Jupp.

ARCHIVE ON 4: BOWIE IN BERLIN (320kbs-m4a/130mb/57mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 14th September 2024
How David Bowie saved his life and career in 1970s Berlin. Bowie had become a superstar by creating musical characters. Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane and the Thin White Duke were alter egos through which he could tell stories. They helped him achieve global fame and wealth, and yet by 1976 his notorious excess had become the cause of his deep depression. Living in Los Angeles, addicted to cocaine and financially broke, he was feeling artistically washed-up and suicidal. David Bowie stood at a crossroads: become yet another rock 'n roll casualty or face his demons.
"I started getting very very worried for my life and just had to get myself out of that situation... so I ended up in Berlin."
In 1976, moving to the epicentre of the Cold War more than saved his life and career. It allowed him to rediscover his youthful creative passions for art and literature, and - as one of the most famous people on the planet - to hide in plain sight. Dressed in simple check shirt and jeans, Bowie enjoyed relative anonymity on the streets of Berlin. With Iggy Pop as his flatmate, he lived in a cheap apartment in a working-class district of the city. And in Hansa Studios, alongside musical collaborator Brian Eno and producer Tony Visconti, he began one the most artistically ambitious periods of entire career, honing a completely new sound with the albums Low and Heroes.
For many years his time in Berlin between 1976 and 1978 has been mythologised and romanticised by writers, filmmakers, critics and by Bowie himself. There's no footage of Bowie in Berlin and very few photographs. But now documentary filmmaker Francis Whately reveals what really happened thanks to the testimonies of three women who knew Bowie intimately, all talking publicly about their relationships with him for the first time. Artist and former RSC actor Clare Shenstone, performer and legendary nightclub owner Romy Haag, and former journalist Sarah-Rena Hine all shared time with him in Berlin. Exclusive interviews with these remarkable muses, alongside other first-hand witnesses and a cache of previously unheard archive interviews, help tell a completely new story. Bowie In Berlin reveals how he drew upon the history, culture and anonymity of the German city to recuperate and regenerate.
Over those Cold War months of rain and beer, cycle-rides and cigarettes, Bowie wrenched himself from his past and thrust himself towards the future. For the first time we can hear how, in Berlin, David Bowie reinvented himself ...as himself.

ARCHIVE ON 4: SISTER BLUES (320kbs-m4a/131mb/57mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 10th August 2024
To mark the sixty-year anniversary of the American's seminal 1964 performance at a Manchester train station for Granada TV, Joan Armatrading explores the life and music of blues trailblazer Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
As an influence to Little Richard, Elvis and Chuck Berry, the legacy of the so-called 'Godmother of Rock and Roll' is far-reaching. Joan talks to surviving members of Sister Rosetta's family, contemporaries of the '64 UK tour, modern-day female singer songwriters from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean as well as devotees from across the music and entertainment world to explore the remarkable impact of her pioneering work. Drawing on archive and unique recordings from Sister Rosetta's back catalogue, Joan brings focus to a foundational figure whose contribution has too often been overlooked.

NIXON, A RESIGNING MATTER (320kbs-m4a/130mb/57mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 3rd August 2024
Fifty years ago, on August 8th 1974, President Richard Milhouse Nixon announced on national television that he would resign from office. He became the first and only man to resign the Presidency. The lies he had told concerning his involvement in the Watergate scandal finally caught up with him.
He knew the game was up when, the previous day, three leading figures in the Republican party including Senator Barry Goldwater went to the White House to make it clear that he did not have the votes within his own party to avoid impeachment.
Nixon's political end still casts a long shadow across American history. It changed the trajectory of the Republican party, as well as American foreign policy, by opening the door to Ronald Reagan. The reaction to the event raised the temperature of partisanship in American politics. Impeachment, which was the threat hovering over Nixon that forced his hand, has become a cudgel used by both parties. And as for accountability, Nixon's famous utterance echoing Charles the First at his treason trial - "When the President does it, that means it isn't illegal" - was echoed half a century later by President Donald J Trump's lawyers when they argued before the US Supreme Court in February 2024 that Presidents have absolute immunity from criminal prosecution.
Yet Nixon the man remains a figure frozen in time. He is still a hate figure for many on the left who cannot forgive him for expanding the war in Southeast Asia beyond Vietnam into Cambodia, and for many on the right his policy of détente and the opening to China needlessly prolonged Communism as a force on the world stage.
This 50th anniversary look back explores the high political drama of the resignation and the personal tragedy of the man. It's an opportunity to look at the myriad ways that Nixon's forced departure changed the course of American history, and a chance to wonder out loud what America and the world might have been like had he managed to stay in office.
And crucially, what has happened to the Republican party? Where are the independent Republican congressional leaders who might stand up to their candidate for president who many are describing as a would-be autocrat?
Using plentiful archive sound from the Nixon tapes held at his presidential library, Michael Goldfarb recreates in Nixon's own voice the days leading up to his departure and the long decades of trying to reclaim his reputation through pronouncements on international affaiirs. He also uses music, held by the Nixon Library (a part of the National Archives) and written for him.
Michael interviews the surviving members of his White House staff and those who worked with him in the two decades of life he had left after leaving office as well as biographers and chroniclers of the Republican party.

THIS CULTURAL LIFE - 97. PETER BLAKE (320kbs-m4a/97mb/42mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 4th July 2024
The grandfather of British Pop Art, Sir Peter Blake is one of most influential and popular artists of his generation. A Royal Academician with work in the national collection, including Tate and the National Portrait Gallery, he is renowned for paintings and collages that borrow imagery from advertising, cinema and music. Having created The Beatles' Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band sleeve in 1967 he became the go-to album designer for other musical artists including The Who, Paul Weller, Madness and Oasis. He was knighted for services to art in 2002.
Sir Peter tells John Wilson how, after a working class upbringing in Dartford, Kent, he won a place at the Royal College of Art alongside fellow students Bridget Riley and Frank Auerbach. He recalls being influenced by early American pop artists including Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, and how he began making art inspired by everyday popular imagery. He chooses Dylan Thomas's 1954 radio play Under Milk Wood as a work which captivated his imagination and later inspired a series of his artworks based on the characters, and also cites Max Miller, the music hall artist known as 'the Cheeky Chappie'; as a creative influence. Sir Peter remembers how he made the iconic Sgt Pepper sleeve using waxwork dummies and life size cut-out figures depicting well-known people chosen by Peter and The Beatles themselves.
