Terence Stamp narrates a series on the assimilation and development of jazz in Britain over the past 60 years. By the late 70s the audience for jazz music was at an all-time low, but the 80s saw a resurgence, with a generation of new artists taking up the mantle. Contributors include Courtney Pine, Soweto Kinch, Gilles Peterson, Jamie Cullum, Andy Sheppard and Matthew Herbert.
