Regrettably without the JSP proposal being adopted, the limited protection it would have afforded us is likely to result in pressure for more homes on our green spaces.” The Strategic Development Locations that had been identified in South Gloucestershire were Buckover, Charfield, Coalpit Heath, Thornbury and Yate.

  • Fist of Fun Press Release
    Fist of Fun Press Release Fist of Fun was on TV in 1995. And since then, despite the popularity and artistic credibility of its writers and stars Stewart Lee and Richard Herring, it has never been repeated, never been released, and never been included as part of those 100 best sketch programs that turn up from time to time. So finally, on 6th December 2011, Go Faster Stripe will be gambling its economic future by putting that right, and releasing a four disc set of the first series. Late last year GFS heard that the BBC’s DVD making department had a meeting where they decided “neither Sales nor Marketing believed that Lee & Herring had much sales potential in the current market” leaving the door open for an idiotic independent producer to licence the material. So Stew and Rich clubbed together with Go Faster Stripe and stumped up the money and bought the rights. And they have made a beautiful thing. The set contains all the episodes, each with commentary tracks from Rich and Stew. And there’s a couple of commentaries from Kevin Eldon and Ben Moor too. There’s the unbroadcast pilot episode, a modern day interview with the pair as they go though a box of 90s memorabilia, and there’s even the disappointing live show recorded at the height of their TV fame. On discs 3 and 4 – in what they think is a first – they have included all the surviving studio tapes from the show recordings. That’s all the retakes, all the between take banter as well as a load of deleted scenes.

  • British Comedy, Global Resistance: Russell Brand, Charlie Brooker
    British Comedy, Global Resistance: Russell Brand, Charlie Brooker, and Stewart Lee (Forthcoming European Journal of International Relations) Dr James Brassett Introduction: Satirical Market Subjects? An interesting facet of the austerity period in mainstream British politics has been the rise (or return) to prominence of an apparently radical set of satirists.1 Comedians like Russell Brand, Charlie Brooker and Stewart Lee have consolidated already strong careers with a new tranche of material that meets a widespread public mood of disdain for the failure and excess of ‘global capitalism’. This can be seen through Brand’s use of tropes of revolution in his Messiah Complex and Paxman Interview, Brooker’s various subversions of the media-commodity nexus in Screenwipe, and Lee’s regular Guardian commentaries on the instrumentalisation of the arts and social critique. While radical comedy is by no means new, it has previously been associated with a punk/socialist fringe, whereas the current batch seems to occupy a place within the acceptable mainstream of British society: BBC programs, Guardian columns, sell out tours, etc. Perhaps a telling indication of the ascendancy of these ‘radical’ comedians has been the growing incidence of broadsheet articles and academic blogs designed to ‘clip their wings’. For example, Matt Flinders has argued that Russell Brand’s move to ‘serious politics’ is undermined by a general decline in the moral power of satire: 1 Numerous people have read and commented on this paper. In particular, I thank Erzsebet Strausz, Lisa Tilley, Madeleine Fagan, Kyle Grayson, Roland Bleiker and Nick Vaughan-Williams. The idea for the paper arose in a series of enjoyable discussions with Alex Sutton and Juanita Elias and I am grateful for their encouragement to develop these ideas.

Signature: Emma Bennett Date: 23 September 2016 3 ABSTRACT Why do people go into rooms to watch other people speak? What is it that is taking place when a performer walks onto a stage, or steps up to a microphone, and, in the silence that has fallen, begins to speak? This thesis considers both the pleasures and the anxieties that attend such public acts of speaking, and responds in particular to the kinds of utterances that announce themselves as in some way ‘non-serious’.

  • Comedy As Freedom of Expression
    COMEDY AS FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION Paul Sturges Dept of Information Science Loughborough University Published in Journal of Documentation 66(2) 2010, 279-293. INTRODUCTION Information Science is a broad, inclusive disciplinary area. If rather than looking to define or delimit it, we look for its driving principle or ethical rationale a good choice would be Article 19 of the UN Universal Declaration on Human Rights. This is a powerful statement on intellectual freedom encompassing freedom of opinion, expression and access to information. Without the freedom to generate, organise, access and use information there would be very limited scope for information science. However, despite this, intellectual freedom issues have never been a substantial preoccupation of the information science literature: freedom has been taken as a given. An obvious reason for this is that in the past the bulk of information science literature has been generated in the USA, and northern Europe. In these parts of the world and historically related countries such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand, there has been such a long, and largely unquestioned tradition of free speech (Grayling, 2007) that the struggles to obtain and preserve intellectual freedom in other parts of the world can easily escape notice. In a globalised communications environment, intellectual freedom necessarily moves to the centre of professional attention and can then become explicitly, instead of implicitly, a central focus for academic study. The present article enters the area of intellectual freedom to examine freedom of expression (more traditionally, but rather unhelpfully, referred to as free speech): the aspect of intellectual freedom that concerns the generation of information and the voicing of opinion.
