Description
Cartoonist Gerald Scarfe recycles and mashes the BBC's archive on Love and Marriage. Love: life's great mystery. We reveal it in all its facets by the powerful slicing of leading romantic figures. Love at first sight, patriotism, the love that dare not speak its name, true love. As discussed by Barbara Cartland, Aristophanes, Michael Portillo, Charlotte Green and Tony Blair. A sensual trapeze act of a programme. Fun, silly, thoughtful radio ... recycled. Producer: Melvin Rickarby.
