The seventies are frequently misunderstood, oversimplified and misrepresented. When the Lights Went Out goes in search of what really happened, what it felt like at the time and where it was all leading - through vivid interviews with leading participants, from Edward Heath to Jack Jones to Arthur Scargill - and brings the decade back to life in all its drama and complexity.
