  • Free, M. (2015) Don't Tell Me I'm Still...Pdf
    Pre-publication version. This is scheduled for publication in the journal Critical Studies in Television, Vol. 10, Summer 2015. It should be identical to the published version, but there may be minor adjustments (typographical errors etc.) prior to publication. Title: ‘Don’t tell me I’m still on that feckin’ island’: Migration, Masculinity, British Television and Irish Popular Culture in the Work of Graham Linehan Author: Marcus Free, Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick – [email protected] Abstract The article examines how, through such means as interviews and DVD commentaries, television situation comedy writer Graham Linehan has discursively elaborated a distinctly migrant masculine identity as an Irish writer in London. It highlights his stress on how the working environment of British broadcasting and the tutelage of senior British broadcasters facilitated the satirical vision of Ireland in Father Ted. It focuses on the gendering of his narrative of becoming in London and how his suggestion of interplays between specific autobiographical details and his dramatic work have fuelled his public profile as a migrant Irish writer. Graham Linehan has written and co-written several situation comedies for British television, including Father Ted (with Arthur Mathews – Channel 4, 1995-98); Black Books (with Dylan Moran – Channel 4, 2000-2004 (first series only)); The IT Crowd (Channel 4, 2006- 13); and Count Arthur Strong (with Steve Delaney – BBC, 2013-15). Unusually, for a television writer, he has also developed a significant public profile in the UK and Ireland through his extensive interviews and uses of social media. Linehan migrated from Dublin to London in 1990 and his own account of his development as a writer stresses his formation through the intersection of Irish, British and American influences.

  • 160329 DCU Master
    1 Inaugural Ambassadorial Lecture at Dublin City University given by His Excellency Dominick Chilcott, the British Ambassador to Ireland Thank you very much for that generous introduction. Lord Mayor, President of DCU, chers colleagues, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen – good evening. It is an honour to be asked by the Lord Mayor and the President of DCU to give this inaugural ambassadorial lecture. We should all congratulate Dublin City Council and DCU for taking the initiative to establish what will doubtless become a regular part of Dublin’s diplomatic calendar. Dublin is a highly successful city. It is host to many of the state’s most important institutions. It sits at the centre of a very lively regional economy, which is growing faster than China’s these days. It boasts great universities and an outstanding cultural hinterland; a great passion for literature and the theatre; wonderful music in its splendid concert halls; outstanding sport - and much more. Dublin is a terrific posting, particularly for a British ambassador, although to be honest not many Brits would have joined the diplomatic service to serve in Ireland. We more often harbour romantic ideas of living in exotic countries in tropical climes - I know I did. But actually, the move from London to Dublin is about as good as it gets. This place is a hidden gem. At the time of the formation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in 1801, Dublin was the second most populous city in the union. When King George the Vth came here in 1911, the editor of the Irish Times claimed that Dublin was the second city of the British Empire.

  • Linguistic and Cultural Changes Throughout the History of the Eurovision Song Contest
    Linguistic and cultural changes throughout the history of the Eurovision Song Contest Trabajo de Fin de Grado Lenguas Modernas y Traducción Facultad de Filosofía y Letras Written by: Sergio Lucas Rojo Tutored by: Irina Ursachi July 2020 Abstract This paper aims to clarify some of the linguistic problems that have arisen in recent years at the Eurovision Song Contest, one of the most important music events in the world. Through an exhaustive bibliographic review and the individual analysis of a large number of entries, it is concluded that linguistic diversity, an identifying feature of the show in the past, has been reduced by establishing a rule that does not oblige artists to sing in the language of the country they represent. English has taken over the reins of this annual competition, although there is still room for the traditional and the ethnic. The research that has been carried out is intended to serve as a reference for all Eurovision followers who wish to expand their knowledge. It also attempts to clarify concepts such as “linguistic diversity”, “identity” and “culture”, which can be extrapolated to other fields of knowledge. It must be noted that not only have linguistic issues been dealt with, but there are references to all the factors involved in the contest. However, it is those phenomena related to languages that form the backbone of the work. Key words: Eurovision Song Contest, languages, culture, identity, Europe, music. Resumen Este trabajo responde a la necesidad de aclarar algunos problemas lingüísticos que han surgido en los últimos años en el Festival de Eurovisión, uno de los eventos musicales más importantes del mundo.

  • Classic Radio 1 Schedules (1967-2004)
    Frequency Finder UK (www.frequencyfinder.org.uk) Classic Radio 1 Schedules (1967-2004) October 1967 In the early years, Radio 1 was very different. It was originally conceived as a general popular music network, broadcasting easy listening, jazz, folk and country as well as pop and rock music. The intention was that it would opt out of the Light Programme with music when the Light was carrying a speech programme. This was largely the pattern in the first few years, with a lot of sharing between Radios 1 and 2, though the two stations did carry separate music programmes at breakfast and late afternoon. The daytime schedules didn't fully separate until the 1970s. Another feature of the early schedule is that many programmes featured different presenters on different days or in different weeks. A lot of the presenters floated between several shows. Saturday Monday to Friday 05:30 As Radio 2 05:30 As Radio 2 07:00 Tony Blackburn 07:00 Tony Blackburn 08:30 Junior Choice with Leslie Crowther (also on R2) 08:30 Family Choice with a guest presenter (also on R2) 10:00 Saturday Club with Keith Skues 10:00 Jimmy Young (also on R2 until 11:00) 12:00 Emperor Rosko 12:00 Midday Spin with Simon Dee (Mon), Duncan 13:00 Jack Jackson (also on R2) Johnson (Tue), Kenny Everett (Wed), David Rider 14:00 Chris Denning (also on R2) (Thur) and Stuart Henry (Fri) (also on R2) 15:00 Pete Murray (also on R2) 13:00 (Mon) Dave Cash - Live Music 16:00 Pete Brady (also on R2) 13:00 (Tue) Keith Fordyce - Live Music 17:30 Country Meets Folk with Wally Whyton (also on 13:00 (Wed) Bob Miller and The Millermen with R2) Parade of the Pops - Live orchestral pop 18:30 Scene and Heard - magazine with Johnny Moran 13:00 (Thur) Pop North with the Northern Dance 19:30 As Radio 2 Orchestra 22:00 Pete Murray (easy listening, also on R2) 13:00 (Fri) The Joe Loss Show - Live orchestral pop 00:00-02:00 Night Ride with Sean Kelly (easy listening, 14:00 Pete Brady (also on R2 15:00-16:15) also on R2) 16:30 What's New 17:30 David Symonds Sunday 19:30 As Radio 2 except..
