Farson's broadcasting career, however, continued to flourish. "Farson's Guide to the British" (1959–1960) took a critical eye at a nation in transition and was the first public expression of his long-term quest for the true identity of Jack the Ripper. Other series included "Farson in Australia" (1961) and "Dan Farson Meets ..." (1962), which usually featured popular singers of the time. The one-off programme "Beat City" (1963) was an atmospheric evocation of the Liverpool scene which had given birth to The Beatles and the sociological factors which had brought it into being. In 1960, he helmed "Living For Kicks", a documentary about the frustrations and uncertainties of British teenagers in the post-Elvis, pre-Beatles era.
