Fear and Loathing on Hastings Pier - Part 1

Born in the Batcave

Part 1 of 2.

Year: 1983

Albums: Breaking Glass, Hazel O'Connor; Head Over Heels, Cocteau Twins

Week 1 introduces our alternative heroes. At the tender age of 14, they meet as one is escorted out of the disco at the end of the ramshackle seaside pier, after being threatened, as the other is on his way in, with two hungry-for-action sociapaths riding shotgun. After meeting, Nicky and Simon find they share a love of alternative music and culture, and take their first steps into a darker world of creativity, fascination and doom.

Episodes will be posted in 2 parts.
