"Kids want excitement, they want things that are going to transform what is basically a very boring life for them right now" - Malcolm McLaren.

A clearly disapproving Maggie Norden interviews Malcolm McLaren and Johnny Rotten about the Sex Pistols. Aren't they just out to shock? Are they happy to be labelled 'punk'?

Music journalist Giovanni Dadomo, on the other hand, worries that the Sex Pistols are already at risk of becoming boring themselves.
