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.

  • John Pearce (“For the Love of Mike”)
    “FOR THE LOVE OF MIKE” Autobiography by John Pearce – OBE Formatted by Bruce Carty – Ph.D. CHAPTER 1. There is a temptation to start with the line "I was born at an early age." But, I can top that. I wasn't supposed to be born at all! Oh, nothing to do with lack of contraceptive knowledge back in those pre-pill days, days when men walked into pharmacies, asking to speak to "the male chemist". I was born because my brother had died. My dear old Pommy dad was the last of the line. It was a pretty long line, dating back several centuries, and having a title somewhere - probably lost due to non-payment of rates, or other handouts demanded of the King of the day. Preservation of the line meant a lot in those days. My dad had two of sisters who had also come to live in Australia. They both married, but none of them to anyone called Pearce. My dad's firstborn was Edward; but, at the age of about eleven, he died of something people don't much die of these days {well, not as much as they did} - rheumatic fever. By this time my sister was very much alive, a couple of years younger than the lamented late Ted. But she would never be a male Pearce, able to carry on the name. And that's where I came into being. I've never believed I have lived on borrowed time, but, if Edward has been sitting on a cloud "up there" watching all these years, thank you, older brother, for letting me have a great life.

Introduction: Television as History 2006 marks the fiftieth anniversary of broadcast television in Australia. It was launched in Sydney and Melbourne in 1956, just in time for the Melbourne Olympic Games. This anniversary has provoked a flurry of events, including a national conference, a number of exhibitions, and a spate of celebratory television specials and newspaper articles. Now seems a particularly fruitful time, then, to look at the ways in which television itself has become a historical object; to consider some of the ways in which television is memorialised. This paper is concerned not so much with the events of this history as much as with the way in which it is written; with television as history rather than the history of television. Television as history can be distinguished from histories of things on or about television, such as programs, broadcasters, genres, technology, policy, audience and the like. Particular historical studies are not uncommon, but if you wanted to explain to someone what constitutes our discipline’s major object of study, you would be hard put to identify a work that tackled that job as history.1 Media, cultural and television studies routinely construct television within the endless present tense of science, policy, journalism and critique.

Thomas Vincent O’Donnell 30 December 2005 iii Abstract In Australia, the decades of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s were times of a great nationalist revival and cultural self-discovery. In the visual arts, theatre, popular and classical music, and especially in cinema and television, a distinct Australian voice could be heard that was accepted as culturally valid and nationally relevant. The renaissance of local production for cinema and television was reliant on the patronage of the state, first the Commonwealth government with the establishment of the Australian Film Development Corporation and the Experimental Film and Television Fund in 1970 and, later, the Australian Film and Television School.

It touches briefly on the period prior to 1969 as it relates to the ownership structure of the traditional media owners with a comparison of the foreign owned film industry. In turn this brings the former, i.e. the modern Australian Film industry and the Australian Film Commission, plus the latter, the traditional media owners and the foreign film distribution/exhibition domination, together in the 1980's development of private enterprise in the Australian film industry of today. This is to certify that this paper has not been submitted to any other institution or university for consideration by them in either a diploma or degree course. I hereby declare that this paper is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree of diploma of a university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the paper.

  • BROADCASTING NOSTALGIA in AUSTRALIA
    BROADCASTING NOSTALGIA in AUSTRALIA Broadcasting demonstrations started with Walter Coxon in 1918 at the Perth Royal Show. He broadcast speech and music from one side of the showground to the other. Then Ernest Fisk from A.W.A. gave demonstrations to engineers in Sydney in 1919 and to politicians in Melbourne in 1920 by broadcasting the record “God Save The King”. The distances were around 500 yards. The Government started granting broadcasting licences in December 1922 (first was Charles MacLurcan with 2CM Sydney). The first broadcasting licences were issued to amateur operators. These radio pioneers were responsible for the development of broadcasting in Australia. Most stations started with one microphone and one 78 R.P.M. horn record player, (the microphone was placed in the horn), and sometimes a Pianola. When a record finished, the announcer took out the needle, put in a new one, and then played the next record. Some stations also experimented with television (previously called ‘radiovision‘) from 1929. The first was 4CM in Brisbane, which was often viewed in Melbourne. They were granted Australia’s first television licence in 1935 (see separate article). Most of these licensed amateur broadcasters became the owners, managers, and engineers of the early commercial and pre ABC stations. In 1923 the Government started issuing permanent broadcasting licenses to businesses, with an unusual type of receiver, following lobbying from A.W.A. and other receiver manufacturers. It was the “sealed set”. Receivers were sealed to receive only one station of your choice, and a licence fee was also paid to that station.
