Summary:The lives and loves of three young working class women, set in the pubs, terraced houses and factories of Battersea, South London ... Nell Dunn's "Up the Junction", directed by Ken Loach, was a controversial and mould-breaking TV drama, watched by an audience of nearly 10 million on first transmission. A record 400 viewers complained to the BBC, mostly about the programme's bad language and depiction of sexual promiscuity. Now, these aspects seem relatively mild. At the time, Up the Junction's depiction of abortion had a major impact, contributing to the national debate which led to the legalisation of abortion in 1967. [www.screenonline.org.uk]
