Living in Sin



First transmitted in 1966, Man Alive speaks to couples who, for various reasons, have decided not to take the traditional route towards marriage. Some have been married before but are unable to obtain the divorces they need, while others just see marriage as an outdated concept. What are the effects of this on their children, and how does wider society view couples who are 'living in sin'?
