    THE TIGER Homes for heroes by the sea . THE NEWSLETTER OF THE LEICESTERSHIRE & RUTLAND BRANCH OF THE WESTERN FRONT ASSOCIATION ISSUE 104 – JULY 2020 CHAIRMAN’S COLUMN Welcome again, Ladies and Gentlemen, to The Tiger. Whilst the first stage of the easing of the “lockdown” still prevent us from re-uniting at Branch Meetings, there is still a certain amount of good news emanating from the “War Front”. In Ypres, from 1st July, members of the public will be permitted to attend the Last Post Ceremony, although numbers will be limited to 152, with social distancing of 1.5 metres observed. 1st July will also see the re-opening of Talbot House in Poperinghe. Readers will be pleased to learn that the recent fund-raising appeal for the House, featured in this very column in the May edition of The Tiger reached its required target and my thanks go to those of you who donated to this worthy cause. Another piece of news has, as yet, received scant publicity but could prove to be the most important of all. In the aftermath of the recent “attack” on the Cenotaph, during which an attempt was made to set alight our national flag, I was delighted to read in the Press that: a Desecration of War Memorials Bill, carrying a ten year prison sentence, would be brought before the Commons as a matter of urgency. The subsequent discovery that ten years was the maximum sentence rather than the minimum tempered my joy somewhat, but the fact that War Memorials are now finally to be legally placed on a higher plane than other statuary is, at least in my opinion, a major step forward in their protection.

  • An Overview of the Working Classes in British Feature Film from the 1960S to the 1980S: from Class Consciousness to Marginalization
    An Overview of the Working Classes in British Feature Film from the 1960s to the 1980s: From Class Consciousness to Marginalization Stephen C. Shafer University of Illinois Abstract The portrayal of the working classes has always been an element of British popular film from the comic music hall stereotypes in the era of Gracie Fields and George Formby in the 1930s to the more gritty realism of the “Angry Young Man” films that emerged in the 1950s and 1960s. Curiously, in the last thirty years, the portrayal of the working classes in popular film has become somewhat less sharply drawn and more indistinct. In an odd way, these changes may parallel criticisms directed toward politicians about a declining sense of working-class unity and purpose in the wake of the Margaret Thatcher and post-Thatcher eras. When noted English film director and commentator Lindsay Anderson was asked to contribute an overview article on the British cinema for the 1984 edi- tion of the International Film Guide, he ruefully observed that from the per- spective of 1983 and, indeed, for most of its history, “British Cinema [has been] . a defeated rather than a triumphant cause.”1 Referring to the perennial fi- nancial crises and the smothering effect of Hollywood’s competition and influ- ence, Anderson lamented the inability of British films to find a consistent na- tional film tradition, adding that “the British Cinema has reflected only too clearly a nation lacking in energy and the valuable kind of pride . which cher- ishes its own traditions.”2 In particular, Anderson observed that when, on occa- sion, the British film industry had attempted to address the interests and needs of its working classes, the “aims” of the film-makers “were not supported .

  • War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada's Military, 1952-1992 by Mallory
    War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada’s Military, 19521992 by Mallory Schwartz Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Mallory Schwartz, Ottawa, Canada, 2014 ii Abstract War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada‘s Military, 19521992 Author: Mallory Schwartz Supervisor: Jeffrey A. Keshen From the earliest days of English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television (CBC-TV), the military has been regularly featured on the news, public affairs, documentary, and drama programs. Little has been done to study these programs, despite calls for more research and many decades of work on the methods for the historical analysis of television. In addressing this gap, this thesis explores: how media representations of the military on CBC-TV (commemorative, history, public affairs and news programs) changed over time; what accounted for those changes; what they revealed about CBC-TV; and what they suggested about the way the military and its relationship with CBC-TV evolved. Through a material culture analysis of 245 programs/series about the Canadian military, veterans and defence issues that aired on CBC-TV over a 40-year period, beginning with its establishment in 1952, this thesis argues that the conditions surrounding each production were affected by a variety of factors, namely: (1) technology; (2) foreign broadcasters; (3) foreign sources of news; (4) the influence

  • This Is My Life John Waite
    This is my Life John Waite Over the last few years I have been approached several times to write a book, but the problem was just what to write about. People suggested either Judo or Aikido, but I considered that better people than I had already done this. I decided that I should write something that I could leave to my children, because over the years I have often wondered about my own family history. What I do know is where I was born and where I spent my early childhood. However, I do not know very much about my immediate family. For example, being the youngest in a family of 12, 1 I do not know much about the life and experiences of my brothers and sisters during their early years; and have little knowledge of my parents and even less about my grandparents. For many years my family celebrated my birthday on 29th March, but it was only when my sister Millie took me to Hackney town hall to obtain a replacement birth certificate that we discovered my birth was registered on the 30th! We deduced from this that I was born either late on the 29th or early on the 30th March 1931. 1931 was about the time the country and in fact the world was coming out of the Depression and starting to recover from the Wall Street crash and the considerable debt of WW1 of 1914- 1918. Grandfather on my father’s side was a boilermaker- shipwright and my father followed him into the same trade.
