The 1970s was a turbulent time in the UK what with a national energy crisis, a financial crash, strikes leading to the three-day-week, runaway inflation and record unemployment figures. Was it any wonder then that people felt disenfranchised, frustrated and nihilistic?
Out of this bubbling tension exploded a band that epitomised the national feeling. The Sex Pistols single-handedly invented the punk genre both in terms of sound and aesthetics, and in just a few short years - and amazingly, only one album - shook the foundations of the establishment and inspired countless young people who felt like they didn’t belong to form bands and make their voices heard.
This first full-length episode of Banned Biographies takes an in-depth look at the ups and downs of punk's most iconic band as well as some of the other notable and notorious figures caught in their wake.
