BBC Television is making a major three-part series called WOMEN about contemporary women's lives. The series will look at the impact of feminism on contemporary family life.
The first episode will provide the background and will map the ideology of women's liberation in the 1960s and 1970s, and evoke the urgency and passion of the early days of the movement.
The second and third episodes will be an audit of the impact of feminism on contemporary family life, and document the professional and domestic lives of women in Britain today. They will aim to assess how the reality of women’s lives compares with the hopes and predictions of forty years ago, and what the consequences of feminism have been for women, as well as for men.
Although at the moment the series is in the early stages of research, Assistant Producer Becky Lomax is looking for full-time working mothers to contribute to the series.
Within her research Becky is aiming to discover:
• How do you juggle the competing demands of work and home?
• How big a burden of responsibility do you shoulder at work and at home?
• Who does the childcare in your house?
• How involved is your husband or partner with the children?
• Are there conflicts or frustrations in your household around who takes domestic responsibility?
If you would be interested in participating in the series or to find out more information please contact Becky Lomax by email at becky.lomax@bbc.co.uk
