Last night, Britain’s BBC Four aired the first installment of the new three-part “Punk Britannia” documentary series, billed as a look at the “historic cosmology, meteoric impact and smouldering aftermath of the most genuinely transformative force in British popular music history.” You can watch Part 1, subtitled “Pre-Punk 1972-1976,” above, thanks to YouTuber syden1. The next two parts, focusing on the punk and post-punk eras, debut on BBC Four on the next two Fridays, June 8 and June 15.
