Squeamish offers his unique take on the history of British entertainment. From pigeon racing to progressive jazz, beauty contests to The Buzzcocks, Squeamish takes viewers on an alternative journey through British culture, stopping at music hall, the scene and Joy Division along the way. Squeamish uses a unique selection of archive footage and plays fast and loose with the facts to create a joyously surreal, whistle-stop tour of Britain’s love of entertainment.
