39:18 – The Schlock Express takes a journey back in time, to the so-called ‘Swing London’ of the late sixties and early seventies. But did London really swing? Italian ‘Mondo’ movie ‘Naked England’ gives us an outsider’s look at ‘Swinging England’ – free drugs, transvestites, violence, happenings and lots and lots of nudity – before we turn to three of the titans of British celluloid sleaze to give us the gutter level view of the era. Sex killers stalk the swinging scene in Lindsay Shonteff’s ‘Night, After Night, After Night’, teenagers find themselves ruthlessly exploited in the groovy capital city in Pete Walker’s ‘Cool it Carol’ whilst the ‘Groupie Girl’ uncovers the seedy side of the pop scene in Derek Ford’s sexploitation classic
