It\'s the film that\'s so punk, it annoyed even the punks - Derek Jarman\'s Jubilee, with its motley cast including Toyah Wilcox, Rocky Horror legend Richard O\'Brien, a pre-fame Adam Ant and at least one former tightrope walker, is our subject of discussion this week. Join We Are Cult\'s Mark Cunliffe and regular host Graham Williamson as they discuss Jarman\'s influence as a film-maker, a gay rights advocate and even a gardener, as well as the film\'s fascinated yet critical overview of Britain\'s first wave of punk.

\\nThere\'s also room to consider the divergent careers of the film\'s stars, from the hugely influential original punk scene kid Pamela "Jordan" Rooke to Ian Charleson and Karl Howman: incestuous brothers in Jubilee, but the actors went on to have very different later careers. We also talk about punk\'s questionable, semi-ironic use of fascist and serial killer iconography, as well as the vexed question of why the British scene burned out so quickly - albeit leaving some tremendous music.
