The Chairman in his opening remarks outlined the progress of economy measures being undertaken by the BBC. Lord Normanbrook said: It is unusual for the Chairman and Director- General to give a News Conference on the publication of the Annual Report and Ac- counts of the BBC. But there is a special reason why we should do so this year. For the Report deals with the twelve months which ended in March 1966. And it was in February that the Government made a special appeal to the BBC to find economies which would enable them to carry on with a licence fee of £5 for a further period of about 2 years. In these last seven months the BBC has been planning the economies needed to enable them to comply with this request from the Government. First, let me emphasize the basic reason why these economies have to be made. They have to be made because we could not get the increased revenue, by way of an increase in the licence fee, which we needed in order to do the job we had been asked to do. It is worth looking back for a minute at what the BBC proposed in the way of licence fees. In 1962 we told the Government that if the licence fee was raised in April 1963 to £5 we could get through to the late 1960s. But we said that, if it was not raised, we would need a £6 licence fee in April 1965. In the event, in October 1963, the Government of the day gave us the fourth pound which they had been collecting from the public as excise duty since August 1957; and there was no further addition until August 1965, and then only to £5. This meant we had to cut the costs of our current operations, and look closely at our forward planning. It had become clear that the Government were not going to authorize any further increase in the licence fee in the immediate future. The Postmaster General, in announcing the increase to £5 for the combined licence fee, said that the Government intended to conduct a general review of broadcasting finance. The BBC, for its part, embarked on a careful review of its own expenditure, and in the 9 www.americanradiohistory.com spring of 1966 we felt able to tell the Postmaster General that, on certain assumptions about future developments, we thought we could carry on until early in 1968 on the basis of a £5 licence fee, supple- mented by recourse to temporary borrowing within the limit of £10 million up to which we are authorized under the Charter to borrow without special Treasury authority. We believe we can do this without any reduction in the stand- ard of our programmes or noticeable loss to our existing services. But this is a short-term policy, designed to meet emergency condi- tions. The money we borrow will have to be paid back. We shall need an increase in revenue at the end of this period of stringency. We therefore hope that the licence fee will be increased to £6 early in 1968. We believe in the licence fee system as the cheapest and soundest way of financing the kind of broadcasting the BBC pro- vides. Even at £6 ours would still be just about the cheapest licence fee in Europe. And properly financed in this way the BBC can keep up its past record of progress. We have set ourselves the target of saving £7 million in capital expenditure in the three years to 31 March 1969. These savings will be almost entirely by way of deferment of projects. For operating expenditure our target is a saving building up to £3 million a year by 1 April 1968. On capital expenditure the two largest savings to be made are the deferment of the rebuilding of our Regional headquarters in Bir- mingham and Manchester. On operating expenditure the savings will come from a relatively large number of miscellaneous economies. The largest of these will be a saving of over £100,000 a year through the integration of technical operators and studio managers in our sound studios. As a result of these economy measures our overdraft has been kept down to a figure of just under £2 million at 31 March 1966. I am satisfied that the savings projected for 1966/67 will be met. We still have some distance to go in planning the further economies needed in the two following years, but I believe that we can reach our targets. 10 www.americanradiohistory.com Colour Programmes David Attenborough Controller BBC-2 Television From its very beginning, BBC -2 has been showing colour pro- grammes - in monochrome versions. `The Virginian', `The Danny Kaye Show', many of our feature films, and several of our own domestically-produced documentaries were shot in colour.

  • Issues of Image and Performance in the Beatles' Films
    “All I’ve got to do is Act Naturally”: Issues of Image and Performance in the Beatles’ Films Submitted by Stephanie Anne Piotrowski, AHEA, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English (Film Studies), 01 October 2008. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which in not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (signed)…………Stephanie Piotrowski ……………… Piotrowski 2 Abstract In this thesis, I examine the Beatles’ five feature films in order to argue how undermining generic convention and manipulating performance codes allowed the band to control their relationship with their audience and to gain autonomy over their output. Drawing from P. David Marshall’s work on defining performance codes from the music, film, and television industries, I examine film form and style to illustrate how the Beatles’ filmmakers used these codes in different combinations from previous pop and classical musicals in order to illicit certain responses from the audience. In doing so, the role of the audience from passive viewer to active participant changed the way musicians used film to communicate with their fans. I also consider how the Beatles’ image changed throughout their career as reflected in their films as a way of charting the band’s journey from pop stars to musicians, while also considering the social and cultural factors represented in the band’s image.

  • The Birth of Broadcasting (1961)
    This is the first part of a projected three- or four-volume history of broadcasting in the United Kingdom. The whole work is designed as an authoritative account of the rise of broadcasting in England up to the passing of the Independent Television Act in 1955 and the end of the BBC monopoly. Though naturally largely concerned with the BBC, it will be a general history of broadcasting, not simply an institutional history of the BBC, and will briefly sketch the back- ground of wireless developments in other parts of the world. The Birth of Broadcasting covers early amateur experiments in wire- less telephony in America and in England, the pioneer days at Writtle in Essex and elsewhere, and the com- ing of organized broadcasting and its rapid growth during the first four years of the BBC's existence as a private Company before it became a public Corporation in January 1927. Professor Briggs describes how and why the Company was formed, the scope of its activities, and the reasons which led to its conversion from a business enterprise into a national institution. The issues raised between 1923 and 1927 remain pertinent today. The hard bargaining between the Post Office, private wireless interests, and the emergent British Broadcasting Company is discussed in illuminating continued on bock flap $10.00 continued from front flap detail, together with the remarkable opposition with which the Company had to contend in its early days. Many sections of the opposition, including a powerful section of the press, seemed able to conceive of broadcasting only as competing with their own interests, never as comple- menting or enlarging them.
