Banned in the 1950s
Elvis
Another chance to hear our series looking at the music, films, TV, politics and sport that were banned and censored across the last six decades.
Every week a different celebrity host will take us on a personal journey remembering the outrage and censorship in the decade in which they made their name.
The first episode, Banned in the 1950s is hosted by Leslie Phillips and asks why Elvis Presley’s dance moves were considered so inappropriate, how a harmless seaside postcard came to be banned and if Marlon Brando’s The Wild One really created a generation of hooligans.
