  • Irish Travellers, the Cinema and (Anti-)Traveller Racism
    GRUNERT FILM JOURNAL 1 (2010) Between discrimination and glorification: Irish Travellers, the cinema and (anti-)Traveller racism Andrea GRUNERT University of Applied Sciences, Bochum, Germany “There’s a bit of a Traveller in everybody of us,” says John Riley, the male protagonist in Mike Newell’s Into the West (UK/IRL, 1992), to his twelve-year-old son Tito, who has asked him whether the Travellers are Cowboys or Indians. This evasive answer is matched by the film’s happy ending, which masks the fact that the film presents the Travellers as Ireland’s Indians: an excluded and forgotten minority living on the social margins. Today an estimated 23,000 Travellers live in the Republic of Ireland, 15,000 in Great Britain and 7,000 in the United States of America. Their Irish origins have been the object of speculation. Some writers trace them back to landowners made homeless during Cromwell’s campaign in Ireland or during the Great Famine of the mid-nineteenth century; others argue that Travellers have dwelt in Ireland since the Middle Ages. These nomads have their roots in Ireland and must be distinguished from Gypsies, even if they share many similar customs. In the past, they played an important role as messengers in isolated rural areas. The term “tinker,” which today has negative connotations, refers to one of their main occupations, tinkering. Industrialisation and modern technology have destroyed this economic basis of their life. Having been forced to adapt to new social Page 1 GRUNERT FILM JOURNAL 1 (2010) and economic conditions, Irish Travellers or Pavee1, as they now call themselves, have found new occupations such as collecting scrap.

  • Writing the History of Women's Programming at Telifís Éireann: A
    Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media no. 20, 2020, pp. 38–53 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33178/alpha.20.04 Writing the History of Women’s Programming at Telifís Éireann: A Case Study of Home for Tea Morgan Wait Abstract: The history of women’s programming at the Irish television station Teilifís Éireann has long been neglected within the historiography of Irish television. Seminal studies within the field have focused quite specifically on the institutional history of the Irish station and have not paid much attention to programming. This is particularly true in regard to women’s programmes. This paper addresses this gap in the literature by demonstrating a methodological approach for reconstructing this lost segment of programming using the example of Home for Tea, a women’s magazine programme that ran on TÉ from 1964 to 1966. It was the network’s flagship women’s programme during this period but is completely absent from within the scholarship on Irish television. Drawing on the international literature on the history of women’s programmes this paper utilises press sources to reconstruct the Home for Tea’s content and discourse around it. It argues that, though Home for Tea has been neglected, a reconstruction of the programme illuminates wider themes of the everyday at Teilifís Éireann, such as a middle-class bias and the treatment of its actors. As such, its reconstruction, and that of other similar programmes, are exceptionally important in moving towards a more holistic history of the Irish station. In 1964, a woman from Rush wrote to the RTV Guide with a complaint about Irish national broadcaster Telifís Éireann’s schedule.

  • Maple and Shamrock: Seeking a Strategy for Survival in the Audiovisual Jungle
    Maple and Shamrock: seeking a strategy for survival in the audiovisual jungle. Colum Kenny Context Attempting to assess what the future might hold for Irish broadcasters and producers, especially in the light of digital and multimedia developments and of increasing competition, I recently paid a visit to Ontario and Quebec, two adjacent provinces of Canada. It is a country where audiovisual matters have long been taken seriously. Canada's proximity to the U.S. 'elephant', as that neighbour is sometimes known, concentrates the northern state's collective mind on survival strategies. Previous trips to Canada, including attendance at the Toronto Film Festival and participation as a guest in the Banff Television Festival in Alberta, had induced in the author an admiration for the practical ways in which Canadians have responded to audiovisual challenges. In contrast, Irish broadcasting developments have been stunted by bad planning and poor preparation and marked by an absence of clear strategic focus. Policy has been eschewed in favour of politics and opportunities to build up the kind of audiovisual sector we might have had have been lost. It was at Ottawa, in September 1948, that a visiting Taoiseach, John A. Costello, proclaimed for the first time his own government's intention of declaring Ireland a republic. His successors might consider another visit, specifically to see how a relatively small country can articulate successfully an elaborate media policy. Canada enjoys a remarkably sophisticated system of regulation, licensing and support which manages to keep scores of television stations and hundreds of radio services on the air in a country of under 30 million people.

Public broadcast organisations must adopt novel strategies to survive and compete in this new environment, where they need to combine public service with popularity. In this context, scheduling has emerged as the central management tool, organising production and controlling budgets, and is now the driving force in television.

  • Televized Sport, Soap Opera and Male and Female Pleasures BARBARA O'connor School of Communications, Dublin City University, Dublin 9, Ireland
    Dallas with balls: televized sport, soap opera and male and female pleasures BARBARA O'CONNOR School of Communications, Dublin City University, Dublin 9, Ireland RAYMOND BOYLE Communication Department, Glasgow Caledonian University, 70 Concaddens Road, Glasgow G4 0BA, Scotland, UK Two of the most popular of television genres, soap opera and sports coverage have been very much differentiated along gender lines in terms of their audiences. Soap opera has been regarded very much as a 'gynocentric' genre with a large female viewing audience while the audiences for television sport have been predominantly male. Gender differentiation between the genres has had implications for the popular image of each. Soap opera has been perceived as inferior; as mere fantasy and escapism for women while television sports has been perceived as a legitimate, even edifying experience for men. In this article the authors challenge the view that soap opera and television sport are radically different and argue that they are, in fact, very similar in a number of significant ways. They suggest that both genres invoke similar structures of feeling and sensibility in their respective audiences and that television sport is a 'male soap opera'. They consider the ways in which the viewing context of each genre is related to domestic life and leisure, the ways in which the textual structure and conventions of each genre invoke emotional identification, and finally, the ways in which both genres re-affirm gender identities. 'Explain the success of snooker on television? "Simple, it's Dallas with balls.' Barry Hearn, sports entrepreneur, interview with Raymond Boyle, April 1987.
