Pubs play an important role in many soap operas, dating back, well as far as soap operas.
The grandaddy being the Bull in radio soap opera The Archers. Though, it being on the radio, there weren’t many visual clues about the beers on sale or their method of dispense.
In the 1960s the Rovers Return, the pub in Coronation Street, was serving through handpumps. By the 1970s, they had what looked like metered electric pumps. Before later reverting to beer engines. Which sort of tells the story of beer over the period.
The lads in Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads frequented a pub called the Black Horse. Which, unusually for Newcastle, had hand pumps.
If you want to see East End pubs, then The Sweeney is for you. Plenty of fairly seedy-looking pubs are featured. Are there any obvious ones I've missed? Please let me know.
