  1. Suspect this is deliberate BBC propaganda, not reality. They seem very old teenagers. Going to a jazz club in 1955? British jazz was pretty boring then. They should have gone to a skiffle show. But parents and priests, and perhaps the BBC, viewed skiffle as some sort of evil immoral malignancy didn't they? Meanwhile American parents were worried about rock and roll.
