(2017). “My” hero or epic fail? Torchwood as transnational telefantasy. Palabra Clave, 20(3), 722-762. DOI: 10.5294/pacla.2017.20.3.7 Abstract Telefantasy series Torchwood (2006–2011, multiple production partners) was industrially and paratextually positioned as being Welsh, despite its frequent status as an international co-production. When, for series 4 (sub- titled Miracle Day, much as the miniseries produced as series 3 was subti- tled Children of Earth), the production (and diegesis) moved primarily to the United States as a co-production between BBC Worldwide and Amer- ican premium cable broadcaster Starz, fan response was negative from the announcement, with the series being termed Americanised in popular and academic discourse. This study, drawn from my doctoral research, which interrogates all of these assumptions via textual, industrial/contextual and audience analysis focusing upon ideological, aesthetic and interpretations of national identity representation, focuses upon the interactions between fan cultural capital and national cultural capital and how those interactions impact others of the myriad of reasons why the (re)glocalisation failed. It finds that, in part due to the competing public service and commercial ide- ologies of the BBC, Torchwood was a glocalised text from the beginning, de- spite its positioning as Welsh, which then became glocalised again in series 4.

  • 40 for 40 Master.Indd
    40 projects for 40 years Construction for Empowerment Design for Social Change 1973-2013 In 1974, Watergate caused the resignation of Richard Nixon, the fi rst sitting president in US history to do so. Mel Brooks scored two big hits: “Blazing Saddles,” starring Clevon Little as a black sheriff trying to save an all-white town from a band of “rustlers, cutthroats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperadoes, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, half-wits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, bug- gerers, bushwhackers, hornswagglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, ass kickers, shit kickers and Methodists,” headed by Harvey Korman as “Hedley Lamar.” December saw the release of “Young Frankenstein,” Brooks’ and Gene Wilder’s affectionate parody of 1930s horror classics. Sporting some fi ne bell-bottoms, Swedish group ABBA burst onto the music scene with “Waterloo” by winning a Euro TV talent contest, while discos played Kool & the Gang’s “Jungle Boogie,” and southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd gave the world “Sweet Home Alabama.” The fl edgling AND, now a certifi ed nonprofi t, continues to defi ne com- munity needs, providing technical and space planning services with architecture student volunteers moving, painting and implementing improvements. Though funding is scarce, AND takes on projects in San Francisco Chinatown such as planning and construction supervision for a remodel of Everybody’s Bookstore; and design and building a free- standing photo display system for Asian Community Center. AND mem- bers also participate in community meetings for Chinatown Committee for Better Parks & Recreational Facilities. In SF Japantown, AND produces storefront designs and materials for the Committee Against Nihonmachi Eviction and offers space planning help to Kimochi’s Food Program.
