Hobbies and Sport
Agatha Christie learnt to surf in 1922 in South Africa. That's one of the hobbies New Generation Thinker John Gallagher hears about as he explores leisure trends 100 years ago.
A new craze for body building and that distinctive figure of the 20th century, the hobbyist, are the topic of conversation as we continue our series of features looking at cultural life in 1922. John Gallagher considers what the expansion of free time in the 1920s meant for leisure and the things people did for fun. He is joined by historian Elsa Richardson and literary scholar Jon Day.
Producer: Luke Mulhall
