"Tales from the Two Puddings"

The 1960s heyday of a legendary East End pub.

The Two Puddings pub on Stratford Broadway in East London was famed for its rowdy camaraderie, its loud live music, and its dance floor (the Devil's Kitchen) that may have been the UK’s first disco.

Just a few miles away from the swinging 1960s West End, in a rougher, equally lively area, was a pub where the writer of "The Long Good Friday" got his inspiration, where bands including the Kinks and Screaming Lord Sutch played, where David Essex gave his first public performance and The Small Faces rehearsed, where Harry Redknapp met his wife and Jackie Charlton celebrated his World Cup victory, and where Matt Johnson of TheThe grew up.

"A fascinating insight into East London’s vibrant history.'
