The Story of the Turban

The Story of the Turban

A BBC 1 film tracing the history of the turban in the Sikh religion, from its roots in Moghul India, through the battlefields of Europe, to the fight for British Sikhs to wear it without fear, including the law change regarding motorcycle helmets and the fight over Midlands bus uniforms. It reveals that the turban is a crucial symbol of faith – one that Sikhs will even risk their lives for.
