The Quatermass Experiment with Toby Hadoke

Over six Saturdays in the summer of 1953, The Quatermass Experiment changed the British public’s relationship with television. Writer, actor and comedian Toby Hadoke presents the first volume of his deep dive into Nigel Kneale’s most famous creation. In conversation with Lisa Kerrigan, the BFI’s senior curator of television, he looks at the social and political factors that shaped that first serial and the consequences of its success for Kneale, the BBC and Britain itself.

Tickets £6.50.
