The BBC Follows the Poll Sam Pollock Tells You How the General Election Will Be Covered in Up-To-The-Minute Broadcasts The BBC Follows the Poll Sam Pollock tells you how the General Election will be covered in up-to-the-minute broadcasts IN TELEVISION ON the evening of Polling Day, October 8, BBC Television embarks on the biggest and most complex operation it has ever undertaken-an operation dwarfing even its effort on the occasion of the last General Election in 1955, which was itself a record. No fewer than fifty-seven cameras-twenty more than in 1955-will be mobilised for the task of giving the viewer not only the speediest results service possible, with a continuous flow of authoritative comment, interpretation, and analysis, but of enabling him as results are declared, and without moving from his armchair, to make a nation-wide tour of keypoints and centres of interest in the electoral battle. As in 1955, the headquarters and hub of the operation will be the London studio (equipped for the occasion with nine cameras-the normal maximum complement of the largest studio is four), from which at 9.15 p.m. Richard Dimbleby will again introduce the most experienced pair of election commentators and .analysts in Britain: David Butler, whose standing as a psephologist (a word many of us first became acquainted with in connection with his work) has practically made him Britain's 'Mister Election'; and Robert McKenzie, whose British Politi- cal Parties has become a standard work on our party system-not to mention his distinction as a commentator on world affairs. As the results come in, Butler and McKenzie will help the viewer more fully to appreciate their significance with a running fire of comment IN SOUND and analysis, with sidelights on local backgrounds and personalities, with an equally full service of results, comment, analysis footnotes on ' swings' and trends as they emerge. In assessing the latter, MEANTIME, and Polling Day ' actuality,' lacking only visual illustration, will be David Butler and his backroom team-mates will be assisted by one of the available for listeners.

  • HANCOCK's HALF HOUR COLLECTIBLES Notes To
    HANCOCK’S HALF HOUR COLLECTIBLES Notes to accompany Volume 2 All photographs copyright (C) BBC The Tony Hancock Appreciation Society is delighted to have given its support to the production of this new and unique series concerning the lost or rare work of, and related to, Tony Hancock, one of our greatest comedians. Tony Hancock,1951 The Tony Hancock Appreciation Society (THAS) Since its inception in 1976, the THAS and its many allies have been at the forefront of efforts to find, preserve and promote the works of Tony Hancock. As detailed in the previous volume of this series, this toil has, over the decades, yielded innumerable discoveries of work by Hancock that was previously believed to have been lost. The result is that the THAS now has the most extensive archive of Hancock’s stage, radio, television, and film work in the world. In addition, we have myriad recorded items related to his career, such as interviews and documentaries featuring Hancock, his colleagues and friends. Each offers valuable insights into his life and work. It is this extensive collection, combined principally with that of Ted Kendall, the noted sound engineer and media researcher, and the contents of the BBC Sound Archives, that have enabled the publication of Hancock’s Half Hour Collectibles. It is natural for modern audiences to question why broadcast material is missing from the period in which Hancock was ascendant from the late 40s until 1968. As many readers may know, this issue has, in fact, affected the legacy of numerous performers, programmes and broadcasts; and this phenomenon is by no means limited to the BBC, the United Kingdom, or indeed, the period during which Hancock was active.

Irwin Monitor (BBC, 1958–65), a series which showcased the arts and their creators and was presented by Huw Wheldon, is now remembered as the flagship of late 1950s and early 1960s arts documentary television broadcasting. In Arts TV: A History of Arts Television in Britain, John Walker describes Monitor as ‘a crucially important early series’ (1993: 45), arguing that ‘no one could deny its ground-breaking achievements’ (ibid.: 49). John Wyver, in Vision On: Film, Television and the Arts in Britain, called Monitor ‘among the BBC’s most celebrated contributions to “good broadcasting’’ ’ (2007: 27).1 In the edited collection Experimental British Te l e v i s i o n , Jamie Sexton refers to Monitor as the ‘BBC’s critically acclaimed arts series’ (Mulvey and Sexton 2007: 90), while Kay Dickinson, in the same collection, refers to it as a ‘well respected fortnightly Sunday arts magazine programme’, pointing out that this was where Ken Russell first made his name (ibid.: 70).

They were ‘plump and shocking pink, with noses that were long, perhaps for sucking up … soup’.1 Originally broadcast on BBC One during 1969–72, the series was repeated many times thereafter. On the night of 10 October 1974 the BBC showed a special episode, ‘Vote for Froglet’, one designed for grown-ups, in which the narrator informs the Clangers that ‘the proudest moment of the British people [is] a parliamentary election’. The purpose of the episode was, however, not to celebrate the state of democracy on the day the country went to the polls. Postgate had something he wanted to get off his chest. The grandson of George Lansbury, who led the Labour party during 1932–5, Postgate was from a left-wing bohemian family. Yet, as the post-war period developed, he came to believe that ‘the prospect of a just and loving social order based on the principles of true socialism’, for which his grandfather and parents had worked, would not materialize.

  • The Outwood Cricket Club Founded 1889 a Brief
    THE OUTWOOD CRICKET CLUB FOUNDED 1889 A BRIEF HISTORY BY L. C. WALLER Published by Allan Good, Hurst & Co., Ltd., 233/235 High Street, Beckenham, Kent and Printed by Michael Stephen Press, la Links Road, London, SW17. CONTENTS Foreword Mainly Acknowledgements Early Days Until 1914 Between The Wars (1919-1940) 1946-1965 Au Revoir List of Honour Notes on a few of the interesting buildings in the Outwood District Outwood Cricket Club - a brief history is the only formal history of Outwood Cricket Club. It was produced by L.C. 'Johnny' Waller in 1966. FOREWORD The Author has been kind enough to ask me to write a foreword to his History of the Outwood Cricket Club. It is of course a particular honour to follow the Past Presidents of the Club, Mr. Alfred Lloyd, Mr. Theodore Lloyd, and until her death in 1963 Mrs. B. M. Lloyd. The Lloyd family were Lord of the Manor, a distinction I cannot remotely claim, but one thing we shared was a love of village cricket, and Outwood Cricket in particular. The Club owe a debt of thanks to Mr. Waller, for the time and energy he has devoted to preparing this History. The research entailed in order to produce an accurate picture over nearly eighty years, is more than may be realised. Although this is the story of Outwood, it could well be many a village club, and some of the characters portrayed may bring nostalgic memories to those who have had the privilege of being associated with that particular luxury known as “Village Cricket".
