Heatwave: Summer of '76
Heatwave: Summer of '76
The story of the 1976 summer drought, when gardens burned, communities depended upon communal standpipes for their water, and Brits were urged to 'bath with a friend'. For government, industry and the elderly, the drought had deadly ramifications, but for those who were young, the memories remain halcyon and hedonistic
