I remember this documentary very vivdly - everything except the title. It was based on eye colour, though, not hair colour, and I have a suspicion it was called, "The Eye of the Beholder", or "Brown Eyes, Blue Eyes". Late 1970s or early 80s, I think. Maybe these few misremembered scraps will hel;p someone else come up with the whole story.
