The Female of the Species

A selection of clips showing how the representation of women on TV has changed over the past 60 years, including a report on the fashion craze of hot pants that asks whether men should be wearing them as well. Plus, a 1970s beauty contest where the contestants had the strangest of ambitions and a 1980s series from Scotland that encouraged women to take up DIY. Jane Horrocks narrates.
