Shoulder to Shoulder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Shoulder to Shoulder" was a book and 1974 BBC TV miniseries of the women's suffrage movement both by Midge Mackenzie.
The book documents the lives and works of some of Britain's leading "suffragettes." It includes many excerpts from their speeches, diaries, letters, memoirs, other writings and various newspaper cuttings, photographs, and cartoons.[1]
The drama dramatized the fight for the right to vote for British women. It covered the period from the 1890s to 1919 and followed the suffrage movement as it was influenced by the Pankhursts: Richard , Emmeline, Christabel and Sylvia, and Annie Kenney.[2][3][4] The series was written by writers Douglas Livingstone, Alan Plater, Ken Taylor and Hugh Whitemore.
