The study focuses specifically on the extent to which a distinctive regional culture can be identified within the BBC in Yorkshire and how this changed over time while also considering how BBC programme makers both engaged with and represented the audience and the extent to which they attempted to foster place-related identity. The years 1945 to 1990 included the relaunching of English regional broadcasting at the end of World War Two, the arrival of television in the North and a redefinition of the BBC’s non-metropolitan broadcasting at the end of the 1960s with the creation of a new BBC television region based at Leeds and the launch of BBC local radio. Prior to, and then alongside, the establishment of these new services, Leeds-based producers working for the BBC North Region were bringing new voices in drama and entertainment to the attention of the nation. But by 1990 this period of relative regional autonomy and expansion had come to an end and producers of regional programmes had been told they were to focus on news and current affairs. An oral history approach has been employed alongside an analysis of programme material that concentrates on day-to-day local and regional broadcasting - programmes made in the region for the regional audience - going beyond the ‘texts’ to ask why these programmes were made and how they were made. Different aspects of programming are considered (regional television news and features, the early years of local radio) together with BBC cultures and practices. 3 Contents List of Figures 5 Dedications and Acknowledgements 6 Glossary 8 Introduction 11 Part One: Contexts CHAPTER ONE: Historiography, sources and method 17 CHAPTER TWO: Private fiefdoms - broadcasting in Yorkshire after 1945 55 Part Two: Case studies CHAPTER THREE: ‘A reliable witness’ - television news from Leeds 100 CHAPTER FOUR: A sense of Yorkshire?

Their voices echo throughout these pages and their names are listed in the Bibliography. Thanks also to Professor Jean Seaton, to my supervisor Dr Martin Cooper for his advice and encouragement throughout this journey, and to Professor Barry Doyle and to all staff and fellow research students in the Journalism & Media and History departments at the University of Huddersfield who helped to make my return to higher education both satisfying and stimulating. Tosh Warwick and Duncan (now Dr) Stone deserve special mention for their friendship and much-needed advice. Special praise should go to Sue Howard and the always-friendly staff at the Yorkshire Film Archive, especially to Megan McCooley who has dealt uncomplainingly with all my requests, and to Jeff Walden and Jacquie Kavanagh at the BBC’s Written Archive Centre at Caversham. Also at the BBC, thanks should go to Helen Thomas, Sylvia Reeves and Martin Johnson for allowing me access to BBC Yorkshire programme material and also to Lucy Smickersgill who, without me even asking, provided me with copies of anniversary and landmark programmes. Thanks also to staff at the West Yorkshire Archives Service (Bradford, Calderdale and Leeds) and the local studies libraries in Bradford, Huddersfield, Leeds and Sheffield. I’m grateful to Philippa Donnellan who kindly granted me permission to read her father Philip Donnellan’s unpublished memoir, We Were the BBC. Sue Pagdin and Nigel Fell not only contributed their own memories to this study but pointed me towards other interviewees, Brenda May helped me to track down people who had worked for the BBC in Leeds in 1968 and Patrick Hargreaves and Bob Geoghegan permitted me to make use of their own films relating to aspects of life at the 6 BBC in Leeds. Thanks also to Martin Coldrick not only for co-editing the collection of reminiscences that first led me to think about the feasibility of this project but also for his meticulous proof reading of the resulting dissertation. I would also like to thank my family, especially my daughter Leah for her constant encouragement, my son-in-law Michael for his IT advice and my husband David - chauffeur, cook and bottle-washer - who has supported me throughout this research.
