  • Born and Bred 7 Clive Swift
    Clive Swift Clive Swift is Reverend Brewer “Brewer lives life to the full,” explains Swift.“He knows all about the suffering and sadness in the world, and this makes him all the more determined to enjoy life. He likes a drink or two, follows the horses and dabbles in a bit of gambling, even winning a bob or two on occasion! He’s never married but he’s certainly had a few girlfriends, as he’s a bit of a ladies man. But the Bishop seems to know something about Brewer’s behaviour which is a cause for concern.” Reverend Brewer has seen a lot of life, so whenever anyone is in trouble or has a problem they go to him. “Brewer’s very sympathetic and wants life to be better for everyone. He would have been born towards the end of the 19th century and would have survived two world wars. He’s got lots of memories of the wars and is likely to have served in some capacity.” And he’s a popular resident in the village:“I think the character that Brewer is closest to is Mr Boynton, the shopkeeper.They are similar in age, although Boynton is self-educated whereas Brewer would have gone to university. But I think Brewer is sometimes a little bit hard on Wilf, the station- master, and in return Wilf doesn’t trust Brewer Clive Swift when they’re playing cards! Formerly married to writer Margaret Drabble, with whom he has three children – one of whom, “Brewer also has a great deal of respect for Arthur Joe, is a presenter on Gardener’s World.

  • Film, Television and Video Productions Featuring Brass Bands
    Film, Television and Video productions featuring brass bands Gavin Holman, October 2019 Over the years the brass bands in the UK, and elsewhere, have appeared numerous times on screen, whether in feature films or on television programmes. In most cases they are small appearances fulfilling the role of a “local” band in the background or supporting a musical event in the plot of the drama. At other times band have a more central role in the production, featuring in a documentary or being a major part of the activity (e.g. Brassed Off, or the few situation comedies with bands as their main topic). Bands have been used to provide music in various long-running television programmes, an example is the 40 or more appearances of Chalk Farm Salvation Army Band on the Christmas Blue Peter shows on BBC1. Bands have taken part in game shows, provided the backdrop for and focus of various commercial advertisements, played bands of the past in historical dramas, and more. This listing of 450 entries is a second attempt to document these appearances on the large and small screen – an original list had been part of the original Brass Band Bibliography in the IBEW, but was dropped in the early 2000s. Some overseas bands are included. Where the details of the broadcast can be determined (or remembered) these have been listed, but in some cases all that is known is that a particular band appeared on a certain show at some point in time - a little vague to say the least, but I hope that we can add detail in future as more information comes to light.

There is not a new season to • share with you this month, which reminds me of a call I • took from a viewer recently. The viewer was disappointed by the news that recent series on Masterpiece would not be returning for a second season, with Beecham House being another example of this scenario. PBS and Masterpiece sign on to series in development early on. This mostly out of necessity because of the highly competi- tive market to acquire quality dramas and mysteries. In most cases, these series premiere across the pond ahead of the planned broadcast here. This month on Masterpiece we welcome a remake. All Creatures Great and Small begins January 10. The series is based on the books of James Alfred Wight, published under the pen name James Herriot. This is not the first JAN. 10 • 9pm adaptation that has broadcast on WITF.

  • Getting Off the Streets
    AUGUST 2018 Chasing the Dream: Getting Off the Streets omelessness is the most difficult cycle of poverty to overcome. Transitioning out of the pattern takes resolution and commitment, but one organization — the Interfaith Homeless Outreach Council (IHOC) has made it its mission to provide effective outreach to the homeless in New Jersey. H Each year, the IHOC accepts a select group of 10 men to support and empower through a months-long intensive program out of homelessness. The men are freed from the streets of Camden and given the opportunity to work on themselves to regain their lives, dignity, purpose and independence. Chasing the Dream — Getting Off the Streets follows the journey of these men who’ve been living on the streets of Camden, but are ready to make a change for the better. Each man has agreed to participate in this rigorous program for individual reasons, but they share in the belief that they’ve hit rock bottom and they’re finally ready to seriously redeem their lives. Over the course of six months, the men live together as a group in temporary housing, set up in a homeless hospitality network of church and synagogue basements and community halls across the county as they detox, clean-up, attend 12-step programs, face temptations, wrestle doubt, pay fines and tickets for past grievances, attend counseling sessions, take care of their health, and find steady reliable employment as they learn to save money for a safe place to live upon graduation. FIVE-PART DIGITAL SERIES BEGINS THURSDAY, AUGUST 23 This experience can be empowering, but it is also an extreme pressure cooker for others who have Watch at pbs.org/chasingthedream or survived so many years as loners.
