Report on the Singing Detective25th Anniversary Symposium, University

English language. doi: 10.1386/josc.4.3.335_7 Conference Report David Rolinson University of Stirling Report on The Singing Detective 25th Anniversary Symposium, University of London, 10 December 2011 [I]n keeping with the modernist sensibility and self-reflexivity of Hide and Seek and Only Make Believe, the decision to root a view of the past in the experiences and imagination of a writer protagonist, emphasises the fact that, far from being an objective assessment, any perspective on history can only ever be subjective. (Cook 1998: 217) This one-day symposium, organized by the Department of Media Arts at Royal Holloway, University of London, celebrated the 25th anniversary of Dennis Potter’s The Singing Detective (tx. BBC1, 16 November 1986–21 December 1986). As the notes for the event explained, it sought to pay trib- ute to the BBC serial’s ‘narrative complexity, generic hybridity and formal experimentation’ and to bring scholars and practitioners together ‘to assess its subsequent influence upon television drama and the cinema’. This combination of academic and practitioner perspectives has been a welcome 335 JOSC_4.3_Conference Report_335-343.indd 335 7/19/13 9:56:44 PM David Rolinson 1.

Dennis Potter: an Unconventional Dramatist
Dennis Potter: An Unconventional Dramatist Dennis Potter (1935–1994), graduate of New College, was one of the most innovative and influential television dramatists of the twentieth century, known for works such as single plays Son of Man (1969), Brimstone and Treacle (1976) and Blue Remembered Hills (1979), and serials Pennies from Heaven (1978), The Singing Detective (1986) and Blackeyes (1989). Often controversial, he pioneered non-naturalistic techniques of drama presentation and explored themes which were to recur throughout his work. I. Early Life and Background He was born Dennis Christopher George Potter in Berry Hill in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire on 17 May 1935, the son of a coal miner. He would later describe the area as quite isolated from everywhere else (‘even Wales’).1 As a child he was an unusually bright pupil at the village primary school (which actually features as a location in ‘Pennies From Heaven’) as well as a strict attender of the local chapel (‘Up the hill . usually on a Sunday, sometimes three times to Salem Chapel . .’).2 Even at a young age he was writing: I knew that the words were chariots in some way. I didn’t know where it was going … but it was so inevitable … I cannot think of the time really when I wasn’t [a writer].3 The language of the Bible, the images it created, resonated with him; he described how the local area ‘became’ places from the Bible: Cannop Ponds by the pit where Dad worked, I knew that was where Jesus walked on the water … the Valley of the Shadow of Death was that lane where the overhanging trees were.4 I always fall back into biblical language, but that’s … part of my heritage, which I in a sense am grateful for.5 He was also a ‘physically cowardly’6 and ‘cripplingly shy’7 child who felt different from the other children at school, a feeling heightened by his being academically more advanced. -

Tim, who has appeared in The King’s Speech and played Montgomery Clyde in children’s favourite Paddington Bear, first became involved with The Sick Children’s Trust in 2013 when he played in the charity’s London cricket event, ‘All Out for Cricket in The City’. Since then Tim has continued to dedicate his time to the charity, appearing annually at the sporting event which this September raised £30,000. Tim has also taken part in the charity’s Christmas Carol Service, delighting over 700 guests at St. Marylebone’s Parish Church with festive readings.
