JM: Living in London with theatre going on all around me and being aware of my older brothers and sisters going, and me wanting to do what they were doing, and also to do it professionally eventually, in some form. TB: Were you surrounded by people that were in the same professions growing up and would you say that that influenced you greatly or do you think that that would have been inevitable anyway? JM: Not by actors or directors, I don’t think, but yes, by art and design, and because I loved the theatre so much that was the combination of the two, was to train to be a theatre designer. TB: Can you remember a key moment in your, when you were growing up that made you want to - an actual moment where you thought ‘this is for me’, or any particular plays that you saw that made you inspired? [1.03] JM: When I was at primary school I was really taken by a play that was set up, with the lighting, I just thought it transformed everything into another world.

  • THE TELEVISION ANNUAL for 196O the Most Eminent Actors and Actresseson the British Stage Nowadays Appear in Television
    THE TELEVISION ANNUAL FOR 196o The most eminent actors and actresseson the British stage nowadays appear in television. Vivien Leigh chose the unusual playThe Skin of Our Teeth,when she appeared for Granada. According to the "audience ratings", however,the play was not popular with viewers. THE TV REVOLUTION KENNETH BAILYSurveys the Non -Stop Development of British Television THE expansion of television, in numbers of viewers and in organization behind the programmes, has made a rapid spurt. In size and complexity, what is involved in television today was undreamed of only five years ago. Gone for ever are the days when every viewer knew where each programme was coming from, and knew that the BBC was responsible for all that he saw. Today many a viewer finds himself lost in a tangle of symbols like ATV, AR, ABC, TTT, TWW, and more; understanding of what goes on is fogged by varied "channel" numbers; by such slogans as "Granada from the North" when the programme comes from Chelsea; and by a mixture of ITV "boss" names always popping up in the press, like Parnell, Bernstein, Grade, Brownrigg and Adorian. Those old familiar names, Alexandra Palace and Lime Grove, which once meant the absolute source of all British television, are now lost among the mostly unnamed and little publicised studios of ITV in London and the provinces. And much that is seen comes out of film cans from Hollywood, New York, Elstree and Teddington, produced out of a vortex of film -cum -TV financiers, producers, distributors and others. The maze of operations which is television today contrasts sharply with the tiny beginning, and the slow start.
