Ophelia,
Ahhh.. that is because of what we do have. for examples we have the 1920's, the post world war 1 age when the the godless brazen-ness of the proles became intolerable for the British Royals.
We have Accounts of the 'uneducated' areas written by professors and scholars who tell of large amounts of drinking and Sex.
There is actually loads of information on this, but no Televison pictures to show it.
Of course, as well, there was the Bohemian area in France.
