Classic Trans Documentary Given New Airing

29/08/2021

BBC-Four has been broadcasting episodes of the series A Change of Sex, which premiered in 1979 and follows twenty years in the life of Julia Grant, who passed on in 2019. The documentaries, which have been transmitted from 9pm on Sunday evenings, have aged somewhat and reflect a different time in terms of where national discourse was around trans issues. Nevertheless, this historical programme may interest students of LGBTQIA history and people who want to see how the BBC handled the topic in decades gone by.
