Out of one small London venue called The Blitz came a generation of outrageous teenagers, working class and art school kids, who would define the look, the sound, the style and the attitude ...

Storyline
I lived in London in the early 80s, when the Blitz club was already closed, but its memory still echoed in the teenage "culture". I remember a 16 yo in 1982 talking to me adoringly about the "Blitz kids" who were very much still in fashion because of their flamboyant style. My impression was that the Blitz kids were way more popular than the punks, because they echoed the Bright Young Things of the 20s and a certain decadent style. They did not invent much, but revived glamour, cross-dressing and a type of easily achievable sophistication. Most groups of time may be now unknown, but they were HUGE, like the Ultravox with Midge Ure and their mega hit Vienna, Spandau Ballet, the Human League, Culture Club and of course Visage with Steve Strange and his hit Fade to Grey. Of all the famous people of the time in the documentary I recognised only George (no longer Boy, but Geezer) and Midge Ure, the only musician of standing. The rest are unknowns (to the masses) hired to proclaim that the Blitz heralded the beginning of coming out, gender bending and racial mixing, which is totally false, but perfectly in tune with Netflix's agenda.
