The BFI Reuben Library invites you for an evening of sitcom surrealism to celebrate Sophie Sleigh-Johnson’s Code: Damp:
“Take a Situationist, alchemical and surrealist dive into an imagined unconscious through the marshy landscape of the sitcom as Sophie Sleigh-Johnson presents her new book Code: Damp, in conversation with Professor Simon O’Sullivan. Published by Repeater Books on the 40th anniversary of the death of Leonard Rossiter, this imaginative counter-(oc)cultural history uses Rising Damp and The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin to chart unexpectedly esoteric patterns in British popular moving image.”
