Today’s pick

What Really Happened

in the Nineties?

Radio 4, 1.45pm

If you remember what

happened in the 1990s, were

you even there? Well, one

person who certainly was is

Robert Carlyle, right, who

played the psychopath

Begbie in Trainspotting. In

this engaging programme

he examines the era’s key

cultural moments, which he

believes may have shaped

today’s world of cancel

culture, Brexit, identity

politics and war in Europe.

Today’s first episode, Cool

Britannia, considers Britpop,

Young British Artists,

designers, gastropubs and

coffee culture and considers

how the competing visions

shaped the nation. Ben Dowell
