Cathy premiered last autumn following Cardboard Citizens one-off theatrical re-staging of Ken Loach’s seminal work Cathy Come Home at the Barbican. Inspired by the iconic film, award-winning playwright Ali Taylor’s (Cotton Wool, OVERSPILL) new play continued Cardboard Citizens exploration of the state of housing and homelessness. The powerful and emotive show, which transfers to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Cardboard Citizens’ 25th anniversary year, is directed by Cardboard Citizens Artistic Director Adrian Jackson and explores how life might be for a Cathy today. Based on true stories, this timely reflection looks at the social and personal impact of spiralling housing costs and the challenges of forced relocation out of city centres experienced by many people on council waiting lists. While the UK tour featured a Forum Theatre section, following the performance of the play, Edinburgh audiences will experience a similar style of interactive theatre called Legislative Theatre.

A Memorandum of Understanding was agreed in March 2007 to clarify the respective roles and responsibilities of the Trust and Ofcom, and the key points are summarised below: Programme standards The BBC Executive is accountable to the BBC Trust for accuracy and impartiality of content; Ofcom sets certain programme standards. Both have duties to consider complaints. Quotas and codes News and current affairs The BBC Trust sets quotas for news and current affairs on BBC One and BBC Two, consulting Ofcom (for agreement in some cases) before imposing these requirements. Original productions The BBC Executive and Ofcom must agree an appropriate proportion of programming to be original productions. Nations and Regions programming The BBC Trust sets quotas for programmes from the Nations and Regions, consulting Ofcom (for agreement in some cases) before imposing these requirements. Programmes made outside London The BBC Executive and Ofcom must agree a suitable proportion of programming to be made in the UK outside the M25 area. Independent production The BBC Trust requires the BBC to follow a code of practice for commissioning independent productions, and reviews delivery against the Window of Creative Competition (WoCC), within which in-house and independent producers can compete for commissions.
