Rude Britannia : One Man's Journey Around the Highways and Bi-Ways of British Sex

See all formats and editions

Tim Fountain knows more about sex than most people.

His show, Sex Addict, was the target of widespread and vociferous critical media attention and led him to be labelled a pervert and a freak by much of the mainstream press.

This, understandably, raised a few questions in his mind.

Was his sex life really so different to the rest of Britain? Or was he just being rather more vocal about what he was up to?

To find out, Tim intends to travel around the country, starting in Bradford at the site of his first 14 year old fumble, to take the sexual temperature of our age.

He'll go to strip clubs and brothels, dogging sites and porn shops and talk to anyone he can find about our current attitudes to sex.

He'll also look behind the closed doors and explore the more private lives of Britons.
