1968: A Spinster's Life | Man Alive | BBC Archive

"Spinster always makes me think of somebody that's very old-fashioned and hard-bitten and very sarcastic, and I'd rather be called a bachelor girl." Man Alive interviews Vera, Frankie and Dorothy, three 'spinsters' - unmarried women. They discuss their attitudes to life, how they cope in various social situations, and how they feel they are perceived by society - particularly by married men and women. Clip taken from Man Alive: Spinsters originally broadcast on BBC Two, 2 April, 1968.
