I Love 1971

Episode 2 of 12

Britt Ekland presents the story of 1971, recalling Get Carter, Shaft and novelty records such as Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep.

Britt Ekland presents the story of 1971. It was the year Britt got her big break in the film Get Carter, and the year innocent children risked their lives with clackers and space hoppers. It was the year of the bizarre Banana Splits and the baffling success of novelty records like Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep by Middle of the Road. Add in the arrival of Shaft and hot pants with the antics of Harvey Smith, and it was a mad, bad world in 1971.
