How Women Excelled at the BBC, 1923–1939
MIA0010.1177/1329878X16664998Media International AustraliaMurphy 664998review-article2016 Review Essay Media International Australia 1 –10 ‘New and important careers’: © The Author(s) 2016 Reprints and permissions: how women excelled at the sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1329878X16664998 BBC, 1923–1939 mia.sagepub.com Kate Murphy Bournemouth University, UK Abstract From its beginnings in 1923, the BBC employed a sizeable female workforce. The majority were in support roles as typists, secretaries and clerks but, during the 1920s and 1930s, a significant number held important posts. As a modern industry, the BBC took a largely progressive approach towards the ‘career women’ on its staff, many of whom were in jobs that were developed specifically for the new medium of broadcasting. Women worked as drama producers, advertising representatives and Children’s Hour Organisers. They were talent spotters, press officers and documentary makers. Three women attained Director status while others held significant administrative positions. This article considers in what ways it was the modernity and novelty of broadcasting, combined with changing employment possibilities and attitudes towards women evident after the First World War, that combined to create the conditions in which they could excel. Keywords BBC, employment, history, interwar, radio, women Introduction In the conclusion to her chapter on women in the BBC in Women in Top Jobs, the sociologist Isobel Allen queried ‘whether women had done as well in the BBC as might be expected’ (Fogarty et al., 1971: 214). She pointed out that most of the very senior women were about to retire with no obvi- ous female successors. ‘There is certainly no reason to imagine’, she continued, ‘that anything like the situation in the early 1930s, when almost half the departmental heads in the BBC were women, could be repeated in the near future’ (Fogarty et al., 1971: 214). -

Glen Hansman
PARKSVILLE QUALICUM RETIRED TEACHERS’ ASSOCIATION NEWSLETTER #9 – September 2017 PRESIDENT’S GREETING from Cathy Van Herwaarden: How about this summer??? It just goes on and on and on!!! However, hearing those early evening crickets always reminds me of going back to school. Did anyone else notice that there was always a cricket or two that would get into the school to keep you company while getting the classroom ready for the beginning of school? Probably a long, lost memory now! BCTF President – Glen Hansman As we approach the beginning of a new school year, disturbing signs of a resurgent neo-Nazi, white supremacist movement have got teachers talking about how best to confront these toxic forces and their potential impact on our students. It’s a dilemma we have faced over the decades. Here’s an excerpt from an article in the April 1943 issue of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation magazine: “In a very special sense, the teachers are involved in this great conflict, for they in themselves carry the light of learning and the torch of freedom — which Nazism and Fascism seek to extinguish — for if these tyrannies succeed, education ceases and propaganda takes its place. Between these two conceptions lies the world of difference between democracy and dictatorship. There can be no meeting place or compromise between them.” From the Second World War to Charlottesville, we are reminded how critically important it is to continue educating young people to understand that “world of difference between democracy and dictatorship.” B.C. teachers have a lot of experience with anti-racist education. -
Negotiating Musicianship Live Weider Ellefsen
Ellefsen Weider Live Live Weider Ellefsen In this ethnographic case-study of a Norwegian upper secondary music musicianship Negotiating programme – “Musikklinja” – Live Weider Ellefsen addresses questions of Negotiating musicianship subjectivity, musical learning and discursive power in music educational practices. Applying a conceptual framework based on Foucault’s discourse The constitution of student subjectivities theory and Butler’s theory of (gender) performativity, she examines how the young people of Musikklinja achieve legitimate positions of music student- in and through discursive practices of hood in and through Musikklinja practices of musicianship, across a range of sites and activities. In the analyses, Ellefsen shows how musical learn- musicianship in “Musikklinja” ers are constituted as they learn, subjecting themselves to and perform- ing themselves along relations of power and knowledge that also work as means of self-understanding and discursive mastery. The study’s findings suggest that dedication, entrepreneurship, compe- tence, specialization and connoisseurship are prominent discourses at play in Musikklinja. It is by these discourses that the students are socially and institutionally identified and addressed as music students, and it is by understanding themselves in relation to these discourses that they come to be music student subjects. The findings also propose that a main charac- teristic in the constitution of music student subjectivity in Musikklinja is the appropriation of discourse, even where resistance can be noted. However, within the overall strategy of accepting and appropriating discourses of mu- sicianship, students subtly negotiate – adapt, shift, subvert – the available discourses in ways that enable and empower their discursive legitimacy. Musikklinja constitutes an important educational stepping stone to higher music education and to professional musicianship in Norway. -

Populism and Reaction in BBC Current Affairs Radio, 1928
Change and Reaction in BBC Current Affairs Radio, 1928 - 1970 Current affairs captures something unique about British broadcasting. Like public service broadcasting it serves to differentiate British from American media and also like public service broadcasting it is influenced more by broadcasting values than by audience ratings. A search for the origins of current affairs radio begins with the ‘topical’ talks of the 1930s that addressed political issues of the day, usually with the utmost caution. As Scannell and Cardiff (1991) describe, there were some attempts under the first Head of Talks, Hilda Matheson and her successor, Charles Siepmann to address social problems (most notably unemployment and homelessness) but the decade was marked by increasing caution and, in the words of Asa Briggs (1965: 148), a ‘swing to the right’. By the beginning of the Second World War, topical talks were in a fairly moribund state and completely unprepared for what was to come. One of the factors which jerked the BBC out if its complacency was the popularity of the Nazi propagandist, William Joyce ("Lord Haw-Haw") who attracted audiences of over a quarter of the adult population. The BBC’s response was to employ the novelist, J. B. Priestley to deliver a series of topical talks after the Nine O’Clock News entitled Postscript to the News. Sian Nicholas accounts for Priestley’s success (a ‘national sensation’) in these terms: The popularity of the Postscripts, and Priestley’s transformation into the radio personality of 1940, indicates as much the dissatisfaction of the British people with what they were being offered as they do the undoubted craft of the author. -
