It analyses the relationship between the physical location of TV series production at Elstree Studios, UK, the representation of place in programmes, and the international trade in television fiction between the UK and USA. The TV series made at Elstree by the ITC and ABC companies and their affiliates linked Britishness with an international modernity associated with the USA, while also promoting national specificity. To do this, they drew on film production techniques that were already common for TV series production in Hollywood.

  • Welsh Government
    Detailed Responses to the recommendations of the report, Voting Rights for Prisoners, are set out below: Recommendation 1 The Committee recommends that: The Welsh Government and National Assembly for Wales Commission introduce legislation to give all those Welsh prisoners who are serving custodial sentences of less than four years the right to vote in devolved Welsh elections. Mohammad Asghar and Mark Isherwood do not agree with this recommendation. Response: Accept The Welsh Government believes that enabling at least some prisoners to vote will send very strong and positive messages to prisoners that they still have a stake in society and, in turn, that they have responsibilities towards society as a whole. Enfranchisement based on sentence length will strike a reasonable balance; we agree that a custodial sentence of four years is an appropriate threshold, which acknowledges the nature, gravity and circumstances of the offending. Accordingly, the Welsh Government will work to introduce legislation in this Assembly to enable prisoners from Wales serving a custodial sentence of less than four years to vote in devolved local government elections. We shall work closely with the UK Government and partners to implement such legislation. We estimate that some 1,900 prisoners out of a total of about 4,800 prisoners from Wales would be enfranchised. The recommendation concerning Assembly elections is directed to the Llywydd and it would be for her, in the first instance, to respond in the context of the Senedd and Elections (Wales) Bill. Financial Implications – The financial implications of providing for prisoner voting will be addressed as part of the negotiations which will take place with the UK Government.

  • What Is a Lighting Director?
    What is a lighting director by Martin Kempton What is a lighting director? Simply put - a lighting director designs the lighting for multi-camera television productions. He or she instructs the crew of electricians in their work in addition to guiding the team of operators who usually sit with the LD in the lighting control room. All this while working closely with the director and the rest of the production team to deliver the best possible pictures. However, there's rather more to it than that, and on this page on the website I explain where LDs work, what kinds of shows LDs work on and give some of the background to what we do. It's important to point out right away that simple 'illumination' is actually a relatively unimportant part of our work. Current TV cameras are capable of operating in very low light levels so it would be quite possible to see what was going on in most studios simply by switching on the houselights. Fortunately, producers and directors realise that the result would look pretty awful. Another thing is also worth making clear – a lighting director is not an electrician. He or she might have been once, but an LD is not another name for a crew chief or gaffer. Most television LDs do not have electrical qualifications, although some may have. In any case, this is not a requirement of the job. The electrical supervisor (gaffer) is in charge of realising the LD’s design in the studio from the rigging and electrical point of view.

  • The Prisoner (1967) Screening and Panel a Revolution in Sixties British Television Design
    THE PRISONER (1967) SCREENING AND PANEL A REVOLUTION IN SIXTIES BRITISH TELEVISION DESIGN PRESENTED BY THE ART DIRECTORS GUILD FILM SOCIETY AND THE AMERICAN CINEMATHEQUE Sunday, April 27 at 5:30 P.M. at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood Sponsored by The Hollywood Reporter LOS ANGELES, April 15, 2014 - The Art Directors Guild (ADG) Film Society and American Cinematheque kick off the 2014 ADG Film Series with a special screening of the celebrated British psychological thriller The Prisoner (1967), designed by Jack Shampan, on Sunday, April 27 at 5:30 P.M. at the Egyptian Theatre, sponsored by The Hollywood Reporter. It was in 1967 that Patrick McGoohan produced his masterpiece – The Prisoner. He created, directed and starred in the unique story of a spy who resigns, but is too dangerous to be set free – Ian Fleming meets Franz Kafka. The Prisoner demanded a very special world, much of it found in the otherworldly Portmeirion, a private city built of architectural relics on the coast of Wales. “It all began in 1960, with British TV's Dangerman – 30 minutes of gritty film noir,” said Production Designer John Muto, Founder and Co-chair of the ADG Film Series. “More detective than spy adventure, the program starred Patrick McGoohan, the charismatic actor who's said to have passed on the role of James Bond.” Dangerman, (re-titled Secret Agent in America), ran most of the decade. Meanwhile the first Bond feature, Dr. No, revolutionized the look of the spy film – in chic high style – inspiring shows from The Avengers to The Man From Uncle.

Zimbardo* Stanford University, USA This commentary offers a critical evaluation of the scientific legitimacy of research generated by television programming interests. It challenges the validity of claims advanced by these researchers regarding the Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) and highlights the biases, fallacies and distortions in this study conducted for BBC-TV that attempted a partial replication of my earlier experiment. I have reluctantly accepted the editor’s invitation to prepare this commentary on my evaluation of Rethinking the psychology of tyranny: The BBC Prison Study, following my reviewer’s judgment of it as not acceptable for publication in any scientific journal. It is rarely productive to engage in such public debate without undermining the integrity of our discipline in the process. However, across their many publications, these authors have insisted on using the Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) as their ‘straw situation’ to give visibility and conceptual legitimacy to their scientifically irresponsible ‘made-for-TV-study’. Thereby, they have forced me to counter their allegations in the BJSP, less to defend my research than to publicly
