Many of Australia’s greatest radio serials were produced during the 1940s. Among those listed in this guide are the Sunday night one-hour plays - The Lux Radio Theatre and The Macquarie Radio Theatre (becoming the Caltex Theatre after 1947); the many Jack Davey Shows, and The Bob Dyer Show; the Colgate Palmolive variety extravaganzas, headed by Calling the Stars, The Youth Show and McCackie Mansion, which starred the outrageously funny Mo (Roy Rene). Fine drama programs produced in Sydney in the 1940s included The Library of the Air and Max Afford's serial Hagen's Circus. Among the comedy programs listed from this decade are the George Wallace Shows, and Mrs 'Obbs with its hilariously garbled language. Big Sister began in 1942, the first daytime serial for women to be broadcast nationally throughout Australia. Until then nothing had really rated in daytime, but Big Sister, with full publicity and a great cluster of star actors, rated enormously. It remained at, or near, the top of the ratings for its five year run. Its importance lay in its success, which led to scores of daytime serials that followed over the next twenty years and gave work to so many writers, actors and producers. Big Sister was impeccably produced by Lynn Foster, who, on its conclusion, followed it up with her own serial Crossroads of Life. Big Sister was reproduced by another network in the late 1950s but only had a short run. When a Girl Marries was the best known soapie to follow Big Sister in the 1940s. Another feature of the 1940s was the establishment of more production houses in Melbourne as radio reached its boom stage. BEA and John Hickling carried on from the 1930s and they were joined by Donovon Joyce Productions, Crawfords and Morris West's Australasian Radio Productions (ARP). Serials produced by Donovon Joyce included Convict Girl, The Devils Duchess, The Lillian Dale Affair, Two Roads To Samarra and Office Wife; Crawfords produced Opera For The People, Glenda Raymond Sings and a great many serials; BEA produced The Markhams and other titles in The Markhams of Four Winds series, all written by Madge Thomas; and Morris West, among other programs, wrote the very fine Prince of Peace, a down-to-earth study of Christ, for ARP. Lindsay Hardy wrote many of Donovon Joyce's serials, but Grace Gibson, who set up her studio in Sydney in 1944, rather scooped Joyce when she commissioned Hardy to write the three very successful suspense serials Dossier on Dumetrius, Deadly Nightshade and 26 Hours. Night Beat was another popular Gibson suspense series. Her two flagships, however were the long running soap operas Dr Paul (1949-1970) and Portia Faces Life (1952-1970). 4 Radio Series Collection Guide5 In the early 1950s Morris West sold ARP and it became ART (Australasian Radio and Television Productions), whose programs included a year long serial Laura Chilton and about a dozen contemporary novels adapted into shorter serials, including On the Beach. In the late 1940s and early 1950s possibly the most popular programs were those of a frantically adventurous nature aimed at a younger audience - The Air Adventures of Biggles, Superman, Tarzan and Hop Harrigan. These are just a few of the more than 1500 radio series and serials held by the Archive. This guide makes information on these titles readily available for the first time and includes in most cases dates of broadcast, principal cast members, writers and producers, and summaries of their content. It will prove a veritable treasure- house for researchers and students of radio serials and series. All titles listed in this foreword are from commercial radio, but the Archive's collection does include the scripts of two very famous serials from the ABC - The Lawsons (1944-1949) and Blue Hills (1949-1976). July 1998 * Richard Lane is the author of The Golden Age of Australian Radio Drama 1923-1960 : A History through Biography. As a scriptwriter and producer of radio plays Richard Lane knew personally and worked with many of the people listed in this guide. He was one of the founders of the Australian Writers’ Guild, and since having his first radio plays produced and broadcast at the age of eighteen he has won four AWGIES. 5 Radio Series Collection Guide6 Introduction Australia’s radio series play an important role in Australia’s cultural heritage, and are a rich and valuable resource for future generations. These radio series filled the air waves for some 40 years and included adventure, comedy, drama, children’s shows, chat shows, variety, quiz shows and soap operas of all types. The National Film and Sound Archive’s collection includes substantial holdings of the radio series and serials broadcast in Australia from the 1930s through to the 1970s. Numerous sources were used to compile this listing of the Archive’s holdings, including auditioning of the radio transcription discs, scripts, label information, publicity material, and books published on the subject, trade periodicals and catalogues. Members of the radio series community also provided invaluable assistance in contributing their time and effort with comments, corrections and additional information. Contributors include Bruce Asmus, Nancye Bridges, Jill Bull, Margaret Christensen, Alan Heinecke, Reg James, Jamie Kelly, Richard Lane, Jack Mitchell, David Riddell, Frank van Straten and Mike Sutcliffe. The Australian Radio Series Guide was developed and co-ordinated by Jane Van Balen from our Collection Information Section with assistance from numerous Archive staff. We are pleased to release the guide and to make it available in all of its offices and access centres for on-site research. Copies of the catalogue are also available for sale through the Archive’s offices in Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney. Ron Brent Director National Film and Sound Archive July 1998 6 Radio Series Collection Guide7 How to use this guide The entries in this guide cover the period from the 1930s to the 1970s and document each series as a whole, not at the individual episode level. The titles are listed in alphabetical order. While complete runs are held for many series, only a few episodes are held for others. Information on episodes held by the Archive has been included where they have been fully accessioned, as well as a notation where scripts are held. Each catalogue record contains the following information: Title The series title (sub-series titles are usually indicated in notes) Series Number A unique number used to identify the record in the Archive’s database, MAVIS (Merged Audio Visual Information System) Summary Description of the intellectual content of the item Contributors The major members of the production team are shown (see below for abbreviation key).

The Archive will protect the integrity of Australia’s screen and sound heritage. In practice, however, we must make value judgments about how that heritage is defined, selected, preserved, documented and made accessible. Access to the Collections is considered a public right. Consistent with this principle, the Archive will provide access to all who seek it, as is practicable. Access is not possible, however, where it would compromise preservation requirements. The Archive will not contravene the legal or contractual rights of copyright holders, donors, depositors or co-operating institutions. Clients may have to negotiate with such parties to gain access to certain material.

    Office of Professor David Flint Chairman 27 October 2000 Hon. Paul Neville MP Chairman Standing Committee on Communications, Transport and the Arts RG.95 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 [Dear Mr Neville] ABA Submission to the House Committee on Communications Government’s announcement of the inquiry into the radio industry, particularly the adequacy of radio services in regional and rural Australia, is very timely. The Australian Broadcasting Authority (ABA) has implemented many of the provisions of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992, including those relating to the planning and allocation of new services. Eight years later, it is opportune to consider the extent to which the deregulation of radio broadcasting has delivered improved services, and whether legislative provisions have adequately addressed community needs. The ABA welcomes the opportunity to provide the attached submission to the House Committee. The submission provides an overview of the effectiveness of the legislative provisions, in particular, those that are relevant to the Inquiry’s terms of reference. We would be happy to provide additional information on any particular aspect of the ABA’s submission should the House Committee so require. I note the House Committee may conduct public hearings in relation to matters covered by this inquiry, and I would be happy to attend if invited to do so. Please do let me know if we could be of further assistance in the meantime. Yours sincerely [David Flint] Submission by the Australian Broadcasting Authority to the House Committee on Communications Inquiry into the Radio Industry The changing regulatory environment Twenty years ago, a ‘typical’ regional Australian radio market contained, in addition to one or more ABC services, a single commercial radio station operating on the AM band.
  • Marie Collier: a Life

    Marie Collier: a Life

    Marie Collier: a life Kim Kemmis A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History The University of Sydney 2018 Figure 1. Publicity photo: the housewife diva, 3 July 1965 (Alamy) i Abstract The Australian soprano Marie Collier (1927-1971) is generally remembered for two things: for her performance of the title role in Puccini’s Tosca, especially when she replaced the controversial singer Maria Callas at late notice in 1965; and her tragic death in a fall from a window at the age of forty-four. The focus on Tosca, and the mythology that has grown around the manner of her death, have obscured Collier’s considerable achievements. She sang traditional repertoire with great success in the major opera houses of Europe, North and South America and Australia, and became celebrated for her pioneering performances of twentieth-century works now regularly performed alongside the traditional canon. Collier’s experiences reveal much about post-World War II Australian identity and cultural values, about the ways in which the making of opera changed throughout the world in the 1950s and 1960s, and how women negotiated their changing status and prospects through that period. She exercised her profession in an era when the opera industry became globalised, creating and controlling an image of herself as the ‘housewife-diva’, maintaining her identity as an Australian artist on the international scene, and developing a successful career at the highest level of her artform while creating a fulfilling home life. This study considers the circumstances and mythology of Marie Collier’s death, but more importantly shows her as a woman of the mid-twentieth century navigating the professional and personal spheres to achieve her vision of a life that included art, work and family.

Signature:……………………………………… 3 Summary Due to their characteristic themes (such as „perverse‟ desire and monstrosity) and form (incoherence and excess), exploitation films are often celebrated as inherently subversive or transgressive. I critically assess such claims through a close reading of the films of the Spanish „sex and horror‟ specialist Jess Franco. My textual and contextual analysis shows that Franco‟s films are shaped by inter-relationships between authorship, international genre codes and the economic and ideological conditions of exploitation cinema. Within these conditions, Franco‟s treatment of „aberrant‟ and gothic desiring subjectivities appears contradictory. Contestation and critique can, for example, be found in Franco‟s portrayal of emasculated male characters, and his female vampires may offer opportunities for resistant appropriation.

    Lindsay Hardy the man who wrote from Lindsay Street Victor Harbor —via Adelaide & Sydney— to the Middle East, North Africa, New Guinea, to Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, North America —Vancouver, Hollywood, Toronto, New York— to London, Sydney, to permanent expatriacy in London Peter Adamson To Angus ‘Gus’ Dodd of the 2/48th, who, typical of the vast majority of diggers, said so little of his war service that it was only when I researched Hardy’s life that I gained an inkling of what he endured. ©2014 Peter David Adamson 7 Horn Court, Walkerville. South Australia. 5081. <[email protected]> (08) 8344-3709 2 Lindsay Hardy was Australia’s finest writer of suspense thrillers for radio. Born in Victor Harbor, South Australia, he moved to Sydney, joined the army in December 1939, was wounded twice (once in North Africa and again in New Guinea), returned to Australia, and began writing radio serials. He and his serials soon became household names. He then sought fame in Hollywood and was successful, until McCarthyite hysteria saw him refused residential status. Disappointed, he moved to Cana- da and London; came back to Sydney, then finally, with very little work in Australian radio and television for writers of drama, re- turned to England and permanent expatriacy. 3 Lindsay Hardy the man who wrote Contents Preface 5 Acknowledgments 7 Introduction: Who was Lindsay Hardy? 9 1.
