  • The Crime Drop and the Security Hypothesis
    British Society of Criminology Newsletter, No. 64, Special Edition, Autumn 2009 Life on Mars Eugene McLaughlin City University, London Titles of annual academic conferences are intriguing matters. The title of the BSC Cardiff Conference was “A „Mirror‟ or a „Motor‟? What is Criminology for?”. Prospective delegates were asked to deliberate on how they viewed themselves and their work. Should they be providing a „mirror‟ that „seeks to reflect as accurately as possible the conditions that are encountered in the contemporary social order?‟. Or should they have an applied orientation with their research being „a „motor‟ of social change to advance key values of justice and security?‟. Now of course the „either/or‟ nature of the quotes are worthy of a paper in themselves and a plenary session addressing the „what is criminology for?‟ theme directly would have been fascinating. As with every conference, the initial session reflected the organisers‟ struggle to manage the array of interests that define British criminology. The opening of the conference runs to familiar formula of a brief welcome by the President and someone representing the place hosting the event. There would also be an opening plenary paper by an eminent criminologist tasked to, in some way, capture the theme of the conference. In this case it would be Lawrence Sherman seeking to evidence the enlightenment credentials of „Experimental Criminology‟. However, this year‟s opening would also include the BSC‟s new Outstanding Achievement Award. Eventual confirmation that Stan Cohen would be the recipient of the first award added an extra buzz to proceedings. After all, it was Cohen who has described his ambivalent but ongoing relationship with criminology as one of “repressive tolerance”.

  • Oxford Lecture 1 - Final Master
    OXFORD LECTURE 1 - FINAL MASTER HOW TO GROW A CREATIVE BUSINESS BY ACCIDENT The legendarily bullish film director Alan Parker once adapted Shaw's famous dictum about the academic profession - "those who can, do. Those who can't teach." So far so familiar. And to many in this room, no doubt, so annoying. But he went on: "those who can't teach, teach gym. And those who can't teach gym, teach at film school." I appreciate that Oxford is not a film school, though it has a more distinguished record than any film school for supplying the talent that has fuelled the British film and TV industries for almost a century - on and off camera. Writers like Richard Curtis, who brought us 4 Weddings and a Funeral, Love Actually, The Vicar of Dibley and Blackadder; or The Full Monty and Slumdog Millionaire scribe Simon Beaufoy; directors of the diversity of Looking for Eric's Ken Loach and 24 Hour Party People's Michael Winterbottom; writer/directors like Monty Python's Terry Jones and the Thick of It's Armando Iannucci; actors and performers ranging from Hugh Grant to Rowan Atkinson; and broadcasting luminaries like the BBC's Director General Mark Thompson and News International's very own Rupert Murdoch. So, Oxford has been a pretty efficient film and TV school, without even trying. And perhaps that is Parker's point. Can what passes for creativity in film and TV ever really be taught? But here in my capacity as News International Visiting Professor of Broadcast Media (or if you prefer an acronym, NIVPOB - the final M is silent) I may be even further down Parker's food chain.

  • Keeley Hawes, Philip Glenister, Dean Andrews, Marshall Lancaster, Montserrat Lombard
    Ashes to Ashes (DVD) Talent: Keeley Hawes, Philip Glenister, Dean Andrews, Marshall Lancaster, Montserrat Lombard. Director: Johnny Campbell, Bille Eltringham Classification: M (Mature) Duration: 516 minutes (including 8 episodes) We rate it: Five stars. Date of review: 22nd October, 2009 Several years ago, audiences in both the UK and Australia were introduced to the wondrous BBC drama Life on Mars. Taking its name from a David Bowie song, Life on Mars followed the intriguing exploits of a 2006 Manchester cop, Sam Tyler, (played by the wonderful John Simm) who was hit by a car and seemingly sent back in time to 1973. The show functioned as a compelling psychological thriller, following Tyler’s efforts to discover what had sent him back in time (was he in a coma, dying, dreaming, or in some kind of limbo-land or Purgatory?) and his attempts to escape 1973 and get back to his life in 2006. At the same time, the show was a loving and at times hilarious re-creation of the 1970s British cop-show milieu (think of The Sweeney crossed with The Professionals, but shot with today’s filmmaking technology), and it featured the wonderful Philip Glenister as the now-iconic DCI Gene Hunt, a politically- incorrect, hilariously foul-mouthed and utterly lovable character who infuriated Tyler as often as he helped him in his various quests. Life on Mars was a critical and commercial hit, and it spawned a tremendously effective second series. The characters central to Life on Mars were both sympathetic and fascinating, the writing and direction of the episodes occasionally awe-inspiring, and the mystery at the heart of the entire show was brilliantly handled to the very end.

  • A Review of New Historical Drama from the BBC
    Eras Edition 9, November 2007 – http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/eras ‘Time-warp Television’ – A review of new historical drama from the BBC: Life on Mars, created by Mathew Graham, Tony Jordan and Ashley Pharoah, BBC, 2006. Robin Hood, created by Foz Allan and Dominic Minghella, BBC, 2006. Torchwood, created by Russell T. Davies, BBC, 2006. Robin Hood in an anorak and touting an anti-war message? Costume drama in the gritty back streets of 1970s Manchester? Clearly this is not your father’s BBC. While there is still plenty of Austen and Dickens for the purist, the BBC, long the home of waistcoats, mutton chops and empire waists, has breathed some new life into the historical drama with two series that seem to engage as much with the way we respond to history as to the historical setting itself. A cult and critical hit, Life on Mars, follows Manchester Police Detective Sam Tyler (played by John Simm) who is ‘transported’ back to 1973 after being hit by a car. Used to being a Detective Chief Inspector with expensive digs, a well-cut suit, and police-work governed by political correctness and computers, Sam finds himself demoted, dressed in a leather jacket, living in a dingy room with a Murphy-bed, and working with DCI Gene Hunt. Hunt, played with joyful relish by Philip Glenister, is the very antithesis of modern policing. He is unabashedly racist, sexist, homophobic and not above bashing the uncooperative suspect mid-interview. All guts and reaction, he is the ying to Sam’s yang, as it becomes clear that DI Tyler has lost the ability to trust his instincts.

A character called Thomas Jerome Newton is surrounded by the dazzle and blaze of a bank of television screens. He looks vulnerable, overwhelmed and enigmatic. The moment is an oddly perfect metonym of its age, one that speaks uncannily of commercial confusion, artistic innovation and political inertia. The film is Nic Roeg’s The Man Who Fell to Earth – an adaptation of Walter Tevis’ 1963 novel – and the actor on screen is David Bowie, already celebrated for his multiple, mutable pop star identities in his first leading role in a motion picture. In an echo of what Nicholas Pegg has called “the ongoing sci-fi shtick that infuses his most celebrated characters” – including by this time, for example, Major Tom of “Space Oddity” (1969), rock star messiah Ziggy Stardust and the post-apocalyptic protagonists of “Drive-In Saturday” (1972) – he performs the role of an alien (Kindle edition, location 155).

  • John Simm ~ 47 Screen Credits and More
    John Simm ~ 47 Screen Credits and more The eldest of three children, actor and musician John Ronald Simm was born on 10 July 1970 in Leeds, West Yorkshire and grew up in Nelson, Lancashire. He attended Edge End High School, Nelson followed by Blackpool Drama College at 16 and The Drama Centre, London at 19. He lives in North London with his wife, actress Kate Magowan and their children Ryan, born on 13 August 2001 and Molly, born on 9 February 2007. Simm won the Best Actor award at the Valencia Film Festival for his film debut in Boston Kickout (1995) and has been twice BAFTA nominated (to date) for Life On Mars (2006) and Exile (2011). He supports Man U, is "a Beatles nut" and owns seven guitars. John Simm quotes I think I can be closed in. I can close this outer shell, cut myself off and be quite cold. I can cut other people off if I need to. I don't think I'm angry, though. Maybe my wife would disagree. I love Manchester. I always have, ever since I was a kid, and I go back as much as I can. Manchester's my spiritual home. I've been in London for 22 years now but Manchester's the only other place ... in the country that I could live. You never undertake a project because you think other people will like it - because that way lies madness - but rather because you believe in it. Twitter has restored my faith in humanity. I thought I'd hate it, but while there are lots of knobheads, there are even more lovely people.

Savage, Bagnall, and Longhurst have also pointed out that “Over the past twenty-five years, this sense that the working class ‘matters’ has ebbed.

This point is also echoed by Ebert and Zavarzadeh: “By advancing singularity, hetero- geneity, anti-totality, and supplementarity, for instance, deconstruction has, among other things, demolished ‘history’ itself as an articulation of class relations. In doing so, it has constructed a cognitive environment in which the economic interests of capital are seen as natural and not the effect of a particular historical situation.

    THAT STATEMENT CONNECTS the modern Steam Punk Movement, The Jetsons, Metropolis, Disney's Tomorrowland, and the other items that we are celebrating this weekend. Some of those past futures were unpleasant: the Days of Future Past of the X-Men are a shadow of a future that the adult Kate Pryde wanted to avoid when she went back to the present day of the early 1980s. Others set goals and dreams; the original Star Trek gave us the dreams and goals of a bright and shiny future t h a t h a v e i n s p i r e d generations of scientists and engineers. Robert Heinlein took us to the Past through Tomorrow in his Future History series, and Asimov's Foundation built planet-wide cities and we collect these elements of the past for the future. We love the fashion of the Steampunk movement; and every year someone is still asking for their long-promised jet pack. We take the ancient myths of the past and reinterpret them for the present and the future, both proving and making them still relevant today. Science Fiction and Fantasy fandom is both nostalgic and forward-looking, and the whole contradictory nature is in this year's theme. Many of the years that previous generations of writers looked forward to happened years ago; 1984, 1999, 2001, even 2010. The assumptions of those time periods are perhaps out-of-date; technology and society have passed those stories by, but there are elements that still speak to us today. It is said that the Golden Age of Science Fiction is when you are 13.
