BBC - Cathy Come Home [MP4-AAC](oan)



Jeremy Sandford's drama about a young family's slide into homelessness and
poverty was a defining moment in 1960s television, demonstrating how far drama
could influence the political agenda. The controversy generated by Cathy Come
Home led to public outrage at the state of housing in Britain, and gave a welcome
boost to the (coincidental) launch of the homelessness charity Shelter a few days
after the play was first broadcast, as part of the BBC's The Wednesday Play strand.

The play follows young lovers Cathy and Reg from the optimism of their early married
days through a spiral of misfortune that follows Reg's work accident, leading to
eviction and separation, and culminating, in what remains one of TV's most memorable
scenes, in a hysterical Cathy having her children forcibly taken away by Social Services.

The success of Cathy established director Ken Loach as a politically committed filmmaker
standing apart from the commercial mainstream, and demonstrated again his sensitivity to
his usually working-class characters.

Original release 16 November 1966 (UK)
