'Jam tomorrow' is a quote from Lewis Carrol's Alice in Wonderland. It has become used as an expression of 'things will get better' - 'you can have jam tomorrow'. This, along with Maya's own journey to Wonderland, represents the feeling of the time (1968). 'It's worth putting up with a bit of austerity, as things will get better' - the following year America would put a man on the moon, the UK would soon join the EU and by 'Backing Britain' and working longer hours things would improve. The title also refers to the biggest employer in the area, the 400 employee Robertson's jam factory up the road - preserving the fruits of today, so we can enjoy them tomorrow. It closed in 1970. But Jam Tomorrow is not a downbeat show - it is an optimistic up beat view of the times, reflecting today, using original and existing songs to inform and entertain, while letting us take a peak at life in Bellingham 50 years ago.
