France in Focus

Is available on BBCiplayer for the next 25 days.

The series which trawls the archives to see how BBC Two has been a guide to lifestyle trends.

There are 4 episodes, the 60's, 70's 80's and the final episode is the 90's & noughties.

It shows clips from home improvement, cooking & gardening.

I have just watched the first episode and was taken back to see Percy Thrower, Fanny Craddock and early Habitat designed rooms. (The Habitat design has NOT aged).

If the other 3 episodes are as interesting as the first you are in for a treat!

Off to wath the 70's!

Honestly, don't miss it!!

are you watching it on i player here in France??

Maybe possible with a paid for VPN?

Yes, with NordVPN. As I am still in rented (don't ask) my only TV is via my computer & I share the cost of NordVPn with my son as you can run it in several locations.

It's £72 for two years, which split between us is a good deal.
