During the 1970s, Mary's battle with permissive society is hotting up, as ideas of progress and suggestions that nothing should be censored gain currency. Nude actress and men's magazine columnist Fiona Richmond publicly objects to Mary's ‘bullying' desire to standing in the way of her personal freedoms, and the then pornographer, now co-owner of West Ham FC, David Sullivan decides to take the fight to Mary with the audacious move of calling his flagship porn magazine Whitehouse.In her final campaigning phase, Mary gets closer to the seat of power than anyone thought possible through her relationship with Margaret Thatcher. The birth of home video and her railing against so-called ‘video nasties' raise her profile even further. But the growth of entertainment media, culminating in the internet, overtakes anything Whitehouse can do to censor content. |
