Maddie Scarlett questions the success of Bake Off’s move from the BBC to Channel 4 Tuesday 31 October 2017 Image: Channel 4 Now, we’ve been subjected to many disturbing and upsetting changes these past couple of years. I find myself asking: “Where is the world heading?” “Where is Britain heading?” “Why do I now have to press four on my remote to watch The Great British Bake Off?”. I am not alone in asking this, hundreds of thousands of people tweeted about the channel change last year. The baking paradise which had ma de its cosy home within the beloved British Broadcasting Corporation was being uprooted and, not only that (!), it was being stolen by the experimental and rebellious Channel 4. As an enthusiastic groupie for the show, I too was taken aback – however, after reading the initial coverage and opinion articles it became clear that the format of the show wasn’t going to be affected. Channel 4 had a ready packaged audience, whom it would be unwise to upset, and the same production team were making it – it might not be that bad? August 2017: adverts began to appear, bunting was being tied, and finally biscuit-crunch time was on the horizon. The public still considered the move a disaster and with protesting aplomb, baking equipment had been firmly stored at the backs of cupboards since last year.

  • Gb 1456 Thomas
    GERALD THOMAS COLLECTION GERALD THOMAS COLLECTION SCOPE AND CONTENT Documents relating to the career of director GERALD THOMAS (Born Hull 10/12/1920, died Beaconsfield 9/11/1993). When Gerald Thomas died, his producer partner of 40 years Peter Rogers said: ‘His epitaph will be that he directed all the Carry On films.’ Indeed, for an intense 20-year period Thomas directed the Carry On gang through their innuendo laden exploits, and became responsible, along with Rogers, for creating one of the most enduring and endearing British film series, earning him his place in British popular culture. Thomas originally studied to become a doctor, before war service with the Royal Sussex Regiment put paid to his medical career. When demobilised in 1946, he took a job as assistant in the cutting rooms of Two Cities Films at Denham Studios, where he took Assistant Editor credits on Laurence Olivier’s Hamlet (1948) and the John Mills thriller The October Man (1947). In 1949, he received his first full credit as editor, on the Margaret Lockwood melodrama Madness of the Heart (1949). During this time Peter Rogers had been working as associate producer with his wife, producer Betty Box, on such films as It’s Not Cricket (1949) and Don’t Ever Leave Me (1949). It was Venetian Bird in 1952 that first brought Thomas and Rogers together; Thomas employed as editor by director brother Ralph, and Rogers part of the producer team with Betty Box. Rogers was keen to form a director/producer pairing (following the successful example of Box and Ralph Thomas), and so gave Gerald his first directing credit on the Circus Friends (1956), a Children’s Film Foundation production.
