I love Life On Mars. I think throwing someone from the 90s/00s into the 70s is an excellent way of highlighting the inequalities and discrimination which were accepted as "normal" 30-40 years ago, and showing how things have changed.

Yes you're right I picked up on that side of it too, but only being born in 1983 this is a distinction I only understand through studying the "golden age" rather than experiencing it first hand :-p
