Episode overview

A fortnightly magazine of the arts. A group of four young artists, who between them have won critical acclaim, exhibition prizes, and Arts Council awards, are among those who have turned for subject-matter to the world of pop singers, pin-ups, space-men, wrestling, and the Twist. Monitor cameras spent an ordinary Saturday with them, from dawn to midnight. The artists and their pictures: Peter Blake, Siriol, she-devil of naked madness Derek Boshier, I wonder what my Heroes think of the Space-race Pauline Boty, Goodbye, cruel world Peter Phillips, For Men Only starring MM and BB Introduced and edited by Huw Wheldon.
