Lipstick on Your Collar (1993)

Young clerks facing the Suez crisis escape the stiffness of a government office through extravagant rock-and-roll fantasies. Dennis Potter's six-part 1993 serial uses lip-synched recordings to make repression burst into performance. The craft is fascinating for a musical viewer, alongside sexual obsession, sexism and period prejudices that need more critical distance than an uncomplicated singalong.
