  • Second City Firsts is a British drama anthology series of single plays, broadcast by the BBC, all lasting thirty minutes. Recorded at BBC Pebble Mill in Birmingham, or sometimes filmed on location, the series was broadcast between 1973 and 1978. The series title referred both to Pebble Mill's location in England's Second City, and the fact that the series commissioned an unprecedented amount of first-time writers. The 1974 episode Girl, about a homosexual relationship between two members in the Women's Royal Army Corps, featured the first lesbian (and same-sex) kiss on British television, between Alison Steadman (as Jackie) and Myra Frances (as Harvey). The recording of the episode was discovered in the Thames Television archives decades later, and digitized by the BBC. In 2016, it was added to the BBC Store's "Prejudice and Pride Collection" and made available for streaming. The 1975 episode Club Havana featured actress Julie Walters in her first role on British TV. The 1976 episode Jack Flea's Birthday Celebration was written by Ian McEwan, his screen debut. (en)
