  • Talent Tracking
    ON SCREEN AND ON AIR TALENT AN ASSESSMENT OF THE BBC’S APPROACH AND IMPACT A REPORT FOR THE BBC TRUST APPENDIX II – TALENT TRACKING BY OLIVER & OHLBAUM ASSOCIATES APRIL 2008 1 APPENDIX II – TALENT TRACKING The objective was to find how the sources of the various network broadcasters’ talent differ, by genre and in some cases over time. Presenter loyalty to broadcasters would also be shown as a result of the ‘talent tracking’. A BARB database consisting of every strand aired on BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, C4 and Five in 2007 was used to select the relevant strands. Strands with less than 300 annual broadcast hours were not considered for analysis. Strands were chosen from genres that have a strong dependence on the quality and audience appeal of their presenter or lead performer. Hence the genres chosen were: • Entertainment, consisting of sub genres ‘Chat Shows’, ‘Quiz/Game Shows’, ‘Family Shows’ and ‘Panel Shows’ • Factual Documentary, consisting of sub genres ‘History’, ‘Human Interest’, ‘Natural History’, ‘Science/ Medical’ • Lifestyle, consisting of sub genres ‘Cooking’, ‘DIY’ and ‘Homes’ • Comedy, consisting of sub genres ‘Situation Comedy’ and ‘Other Comedy’ The talent analysis would then be taken form these selected strands. In the cases where talent appeared for the same channel on more than one strand, the talent was still only considered once for tracking analysis. If talent appeared on more than one channel, then their tracking would appear in all relevant channel profiles. Various different web-based sources were used to best map out the talent’s career. www.wikipedia.org and www.tv.com have career résumés on most of the selected talent; for a deeper and more comprehensive analysis, www.imdb.com and www.spotlight.com were used as reliable programme and talent databases.

  • Celebrity Ice Dancers Bring Showbiz Spark to North East Festival
    A media item for Billingham International Folklore Festival of World Dance 2019: CELEBRITY ICE DANCERS BRING SHOWBIZ SPARKLE TO NORTH EAST FESTIVAL Three of Europe’s hottest ice dancers plan to light up this year’s Billingham International Folklore Festival of World Dance (BIFF 2019) when it opens its doors in August. The three dancers who stunned TV audiences with their flare, flamboyance and mesmerising skills on ITV’s Dancing on Ice have a combined following of 178k followers on Instagram and 40.6k followers on Twitter. They promise to bring glitz and glamour to the Tees Valley cultural showcase. The famous skaters are MARK HANRETTY (who partnered with presenter Donna Air, Loose Women's Nadia Sawalha and fitness diva Rosemary Conley), VANESSA BAUER (former Dancing on Ice champion, who partnered with X Factor star Jake Quickenden and Wes Nelson of Love Island) and Russia’s NINA ULANOV (another former Dancing on Ice champion, who partnered with Emmerdale’s Matthew Wolfenden and Corrie’s Steven Arnold aka butcher Ashley Peacock). This summer they will be bringing their unique style of extravagant ice dancing to the centre piece performance of the 55th Billingham International Folklore Festival of World Dance. The showcase event is “The Creative Spirit of John Curry” – a special tribute to the sensational Olympic, World and European figure skating champion. Who took the world by storm in the 1970s but whose life was tragically cut short at the young age of 44 from an AIDS related illness. The celebration is choreographed by Mark Hanretty, Balbir Singh Company and Yebin Mok (American figure skater) – who also appears in the showcase.

Leanne (Christine Tremarco) is taking her two young children to visit her grandfather (Edward Woodward). She stops to buy flowers at a motorway lay-by but then inexplicably vanishes, leaving her two children waiting for her in the car, lost and far from home. They set off to find her – only to go missing themselves. Their ordeal is captured on CCTV cameras and, before long, the family’s heart-stopping trauma is not only a complex police investigation but also a major news story. The action unfolds on days one, three, 28, 33 and 79 of the investigation. As each episode unravels, it becomes clear that nobody is quite what they seem – not Leanne’s grieving husband, Matthew (David Oyelowo), who finds himself under suspicion; not the laconic detective, Barclay (Hugh Bonneville), or his cynical sergeant, Foster (Janet McTeer); not Leanne’s parents, Barbara (Penelope Wilton) and John (Patrick Malahide); and not Sarah (Sarah Smart), a stranger who is drawn into both the investigation and the family.

Ruth A Deller, Sheffield Hallam University, UK Abstract In this paper, I discuss the phenomenon of celebrity reality television and explore its function for those participating in it.

In this paper I discuss the role these shows can serve for celebrities at different levels of their careers. I argue that reality television appeals in different ways to celebrities at different points in the fame ‘cycle’: ‘ordinary’ people or ‘pre-celebrities’ seeking to become known through it; proto-celebrities who wish to expand their fame; celebrities engaged in the work of promotion for their other endeavours; celebrities who wish to remake their existing star image through using reality television as a rehabilitative strategy or an opportunity to develop new skills; and those whose careers are in a period of ‘post-celebrity’ who seek to renew their fame.
