  • The Future of The
    The Future of Public Service Broadcasting Some thoughts Stephen Fry Before I can even think to presume to dare to begin to expatiate on what sort of an organism I think the British Broadcasting Corporation should be, where I think the BBC should be going, how I think it and other British networks should be funded, what sort of programmes it should make, develop and screen and what range of pastries should be made available in its cafés and how much to the last penny it should pay its talent, before any of that, I ought I think in justice to run around the games field a couple of times puffing out a kind of “The BBC and Me” mini‐biography, for like many of my age, weight and shoe size, the BBC is deeply stitched into my being and it is important for me as well as for you, to understand just how much. Only then can we judge the sense, value or otherwise of my thoughts. It all began with sitting under my mother’s chair aged two as she (teaching history at the time) marked essays. It was then that the Archers theme tune first penetrated my brain, never to leave. The voices of Franklin Engelman going Down Your Way, the women of the Petticoat Line, the panellists of Twenty Questions, Many A Slip, My Word and My Music, all these solid middle class Radio 4 (or rather Home Service at first) personalities populated my world. As I visited other people’s houses and, aged seven by now, took my own solid state transistor radio off to boarding school with me, I was made aware of The Light Programme, now Radio 2, and Sparky’s Magic Piano, Puff the Magic Dragon and Nelly the Elephant, I also began a lifelong devotion to radio comedy as Round The Horne, The Clitheroe Kid, I’m Sorry I’ll Read That Again, Just A Minute, The Men from The Ministry and Week Ending all made themselves known to me.

  • Who Is Sir Curtis Seretse?’: a Re-Evaluation of Black Representation in Sixties British Television
    95 ARTICLE ‘Who is Sir Curtis Seretse?’: A Re-evaluation of Black Representation in Sixties British Television DR. MICHAEL AHMED, University of East Anglia ABSTRACT This paper re-evaluates the significance of Sir Curtis Seretse, a black character from the 1960s television series Department S (ITV 1969-70) which has largely been ignored. While earlier critical and academic discourse of Department S has primarily centred on the flamboyant Jason King, the importance of Seretse’s character has been overlooked. Seretse, as the head of Department S, is in a position of authority and power over the other (white) characters of the show. Furthermore, he represents a highly educated character that converses on equal terms with Prime Ministers and Presidents, a unique representation of a black character on British television at that time. Seretse’s appearance on prime time television, at a period when black performers in the media were invariably confined to little more than token characters, is therefore worthy of further attention. This paper examines how Seretse represents a different type of black character not previously seen on British television, when compared to the representations of racial problems on other television crime dramas. KEYWORDS Black Representation; British Drama; Cult; Race; Department S; Sir Curtis Seretse Introduction: ITC and Popular British Television Drama ITC (Incorporated Television Programme Co.) was founded in 1954 by the theatrical businessmen Lew Grade, Leslie Grade, Prince Littler and Val Parnell. The company was setup to bid for the new Independent Television franchises following the publication of the newly elected Conservative government’s Television Bill. The Bill was intended, as Scannell (1990) has noted, ‘to establish commercial television, funded by advertising’ (17) that would also become an alternative broadcaster to the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), which had, up until this time, held the monopoly of British television.

  • Diana Rigg, One of Our Favourite and Most Gifted Actors and for Many the Epitome of Sixties Cool, Charm and Charisma Had Passed Away
    Back in July I thought it’d be good to follow on from the first issue, a Doctor Who special, with one paying tribute to other cult television shows, and I started putting this issue together in August after I received the first article, ‘The Avengers’ by John Winterson Richards. The article (which starts on page 3) was already ‘in the can’ if I can borrow that term, by the end of the month. Then, just a few weeks later, the sad news was announced that Dame Diana Rigg, one of our favourite and most gifted actors and for many the epitome of sixties cool, charm and charisma had passed away. Diana Rigg, who was a much loved and admired member of her profession, helped propel 'The Avengers' into its true golden age. In middle age she made a dazzling change of direction to be become one of our great classical actors. The recipient of Bafta, Emmy, Tony and Evening Standard Awards for her work on stage and screen she was a true force of nature. On page 41 we pay tribute to her. What is Cult TV? You can't predict what is going to become a TV cult. It's not the makers of a particular show that bestow cult status, but the audience who view it. Those with a passion who, long after a series has finished and gone to television heaven (shameless plug), keep it very much alive with devoted fan communities, online message boards, writing fan-fiction, and attending conventions dressed as their favourite characters.

  • Ufo Press Release V1
    UFO AUSTRALIAN DVD RELEASE FROM UMBRELLA ENTERTAINMENT UFO – THE COMPLETE S.H.A.D.O. FILE 3 years in the making, UFO finally arrives on DVD in Australia in this Special Collector’s Edition containing the complete series, digitally restored, plus a staggering range of Special Features – collected together for the first time ever in one definitive set. THE SERIES Danger from the unknown… Menace from Outer Space… Fantastic new developments since man’s conquest of the moon… Set in the 1980s, UFO presents tensely dramatic stories of an age in which Unidentified Flying Objects have become established and are believed to be a threat to the safety of Earth. Who are they? Where do they come from? Who are the occupants and what do they want? A highly organised defence system has been set up. Known as S.H.A.D.O. (Supreme Headquarters Alien Defense Organisation), it is closely guarded under a veil of deep secrecy and housed beneath a bona-fide film studio. Commander Ed Straker leads a dedicated team of specialists to monitor and thwart the alien invasion. Whether at SHADO Headquarters on Earth, Skydiver beneath the sea or the control base on the moon for interceptor craft, Straker and his team are ready for battle. Space fiction has become fact. Produced for ITC, UFO became Gerry & Sylvia Anderson’s first live action series following their immense success with THUNDERBIRDS and CAPTAIN SCARLET AND THE MYSTERONS. Gone was the “supermarionation” but in its place came one of the first big-budget British science fiction series featuring tense drama, exciting action, outstanding model work and the most glamorous girls to be seen in space … and now THE ALIENS HAVE RETURNED… UFO – THE COMPLETE SHADO FILE presents all 26 episodes of the sci-fi series, complete, uncut & meticulously restored from the original film elements.
