Caravans: A Very British Love Affair
Caravans, us Brits love ‘em. And they are roaring back into fashion with the recession and the weak pound.
On BBC2 8:00pm - 9:00pm Thursday 02 April there is a documentary, narrated by Alison Steadman that details our love affair with the caravan. Showing how we became the world’s largest caravan manufacturer, and how the holiday habits of generations of families were transformed.
In telling the story of caravanning in the UK from the 50s through to the present day, the film explores how changes through these years reflect the wider changes in our society.
This sounds like a fascinating watch for all caravan enthusiasts, and to be honest anyone interested in British culture.
