This week, we’re not ashamed, we just have to return some video tapes…to the naughty part of the video shop. Writer, director and producer, John Fairfield, is taking us through the cheap beaded curtain and into the history of Video Nasties, The Obscene Publications Act, and The Video Recordings Act of 1984. But fear not, Adam, Nat & John will NOT be censored, not by Mary Whitehouse, not by MP Graham Bright, and certainly not by Adam’s Gran.
More on John:
John Fairfield (@MrFly3oy), is a Scottish (duh) award-winning writer, director and BAFTA nominated producer.
