The Nasties Review: The DPP Video Nasties


My flagship series, The Nasties Review is here in it's text form.
I haven't got all the scripts any more unfortunately but I may rewrite the missing scripts at some point then add them in lieu.
In the early 1980's the British government made moves to censor home video. It was a move towards a statutory censorship of a means of communication that hadn't been seen for over a century.
I started the series because of my fascination with the infamous 'Nasties' even though I had no real idea of what I was letting myself in for. As the series progressed it became an insight into politics, censorship and freedom of speech that has relevance to this day.
