About this Broadcast

-

Beginning in May 1975, Britain was gripped by a record-breaking spell of erratic weather that stretched for 16 long months. This extraordinary period culminated in the Standpipe Drought of 1976, where across the country thousands of households had to rely on communal outdoor taps for their water. Featuring archive footage and first-hand accounts from famous faces including John Kettley, Toyah Willcox, Don Letts, Tony Blackburn, Ann Widdecombe and Neil Kinnock, this documentary tells the compelling story of the drought and its enduring legacy
