Footage of what is believed to be the earliest known
interracial kiss on British television has been unearthed.
The groundbreaking scene, from You In Your Small Corner,
was found in the BFI’s archive, 53 years after it aired.
You In Your Small Corner was shown on ITV in June 1962 as
a Granada play of the week and has not been seen since, the BFI said.
The drama was rediscovered by a researcher ahead of an
discussion event called Race And Romance In Television and will be shown in
full at a special screening next month.
