  • Teletubbies and Postmodern Childhood Jonathan
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Central Archive at the University of Reading Familiar Aliens: Teletubbies and Postmodern Childhood Jonathan Bignell This article argues that the British pre-school children’s television programme Teletubbies develops some of the theoretical concerns of postmodernist criticism. The aim of the article is to consider how this theoretical discourse and Teletubbies work together to rethink the notion of the child, as a conceptual category and an audience category imagined for British television. I shall argue that the aesthetic of Teletubbies corresponds to the reflexive textuality identified by postmodernist theory, and instantiates some of the confusions between self and other, adult and child, that this theoretical discourse has debated.1 Some of the existing work on Teletubbies discusses it in terms of its effects on the child audience and its relationship to educational and social goals, using arguments that adduce what is claimed to be knowledge about actual children. 2 In contrast, this article discusses arguments that derive from abstract conceptions of childhood as a condition or life-stage. However, I demonstrate here that these two approaches keep merging into each other, and that this issue is part of the greater problem of boundaries, propriety and ambivalence that postmodernist thinking has addressed and of which it is a symptom. The French theorist Jean-François Lyotard is interested in childhood as a discursive category, rather than in actual children as concrete individual subjects. He discusses childhood in relation to notions of process, such as the process of constitution of the subject, and the relation between a subject and an object, event, or experience.

  • Independent Television Producers in England
    Negotiating Dependence: Independent Television Producers in England Karl Rawstrone A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts and Creative Industries, University of the West of England, Bristol November 2020 77,900 words. Abstract The thesis analyses the independent television production sector focusing on the role of the producer. At its centre are four in-depth case studies which investigate the practices and contexts of the independent television producer in four different production cultures. The sample consists of a small self-owned company, a medium- sized family-owned company, a broadcaster-owned company and an independent- corporate partnership. The thesis contextualises these case studies through a history of four critical conjunctures in which the concept of ‘independence’ was debated and shifted in meaning, allowing the term to be operationalised to different ends. It gives particular attention to the birth of Channel 4 in 1982 and the subsequent rapid growth of an independent ‘sector’. Throughout, the thesis explores the tensions between the political, economic and social aims of independent television production and how these impact on the role of the producer. The thesis employs an empirical methodology to investigate the independent television producer’s role. It uses qualitative data, principally original interviews with both employers and employees in the four companies, to provide a nuanced and detailed analysis of the complexities of the producer’s role. Rather than independence, the thesis uses network analysis to argue that a television producer’s role is characterised by sets of negotiated dependencies, through which professional agency is exercised and professional identity constructed and performed.

    volume 8 issue 15/2019 MEMORY, NOSTALGIA AND THE MATERIAL HERITAGE OF CHILDREN’S TELEVISION IN THE MUSEUM Amy Holdsworth University of Glasgow 9 University Avenue, Glasgow, G12 8QQ United Kingdom [email protected] Rachel Moseley University of Warwick Department of Film and Television Studies Millburn House, Coventry, CV4 7HS United Kingdom [email protected] Helen Wheatley University of Warwick Department of Film and Television Studies Millburn House, Coventry, CV4 7HS United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract: ‘The Story of Children’s Television, from 1946 to Now’ was an exhibition co-conceived by the authors and colleagues from the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum in Coventry, UK, running from 2015 to 2017 through a national tour. At the exhibition, objects from children’s television history sat alongside screens showing the programmes to visitors. Our research explores how children’s television culture operates as a site of memory and nostalgia, through which we can investigate forms of (inter)generational cultural memory. This paper explores the reconnections and disconnections that emerge in encounters with the material heritage of children’s television in Britain. Keywords: television, history, children, museums, exhibitions 1 A. Holdsworth et al., Memory, Nostalgia and the Material Heritage of Children’s Television in the Museum Figure 1.

  • Sue Howard and Susan Roberts: Teletubbies Downunder: the Australian Experience
    International Central Institute for Youth and Educational Television (IZI) Special English Issue No. 12/1999/2: "The Teletubbies" Sue Howard and Susan Roberts "Teletubbies" downunder: The Australian experience Introduction Broadcast at 7.30 a.m. on Australian television and scheduled alongside other programmes intended for preschoolers, it’s highly likely that only a small percentage of Australia’s population has actually watched an episode of "Teletubbies" and most of those viewers would be under the age of 5.It is clear, however, that the evocative name ‘Teletubby’ has entered the Australian lexicon and has currency and cultural meaning for Australians in general. For example, Shane Warne, an Australian cricketing hero with a weight problem was referred to as a ‘sporting Teletubby’ by a writer for the national daily newspaper (Australian 19/12/97). Again in The Australian, in an article presenting research into childhood obesity, a subheader proclaimed ‘Overindulgent, overprotective parents are turning their children into "Teletubbies"...’ (Australian 1/9/99) - an accompanying photograph depicts an overweight primary school child, eating potato chips and drinking soft drink, slumped on a sofa infront of a TV set. As these examples show, the meanings that the "Teletubby" epithet (with or without a capital T) have generated are somewhat contradictory - they are part pejorative, and part lovable. To put it crudely: champion leg-spin bowlers and young children = good; fat and television = bad. What we would argue is that these contradictory meanings (particularly for people who have never watched the programme) are largely attributable to the critical media attention that the series attracted even before it went to air in Australia early in 1998.
