Signature:……………………………………… 2 UNIVERSITY OF SUSSEX BENJAMIN LITHERLAND SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE FIELD AND THE STAGE: PUGILISM, COMBAT PERFORMANCE AND PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING IN ENGLAND, 1700 – 1980 SUMMARY Speaking to a local radio station in the 1960s, with the glitz, glitter and glamour of televised professional wrestling at its height, one old, retired Cumbrian wrestler declared that ‘wrestling…was a game for the field not the stage’. This statement, condensed and potent as it is, could stand in for the questions this thesis asks and seeks to answer: why did wrestling develop as a professional, performed ‘sporting entertainment’? To answer this question, existing theories of social and sports history are combined with cultural studies methods and applied to Pierre Bourdieu’s notion of fields.

  • Who's the Daddy? Slim Version.Pdf
    Prologue The New London Theatre, Wednesday 7 March 1979 HE SHOW began with serious trumpeting. A fanfare of some importance and the audience were applauding. It felt Tlike history was being made, although some of the people there that night, figures dotted throughout the whole of Shirley Crabtree’s life, would later think differently. Once the limelight faded there would be a divided opinion on the Crabtree clan and their influence on professional wrestling, and we shall come to these matters in due course. For now, we are trying to conjure up a scene, resurrect a bit of telly history so to speak, so we’re looking down at the TV cameras, which are themselves trained on the mock-auditorium set up at the front. There is empty raised seating either side of the doors centre-stage, and a backdrop of red, brown, and cream. Every set of eyes is focused on the doors and over all of this, the shows superimposed titles come and go. Although the audience were familiar with people like Kent Walton and Dickie Davies on World of Sport on Saturday afternoons, there was a certain amount of excitement on their faces as they waited for a different kind of show to begin. This was a live recording and their unblinking eyes shining back through the fag smoke could mean only a couple of things. They were either totally transfixed as they clapped like brainwashed seals, or 11 Who’s The Daddy? they’d had a skinful in the Prince of Wales on Drury Lane before the show.

The band will do well to improve on the success of their first 45 ' Why Does The Rain', which was voted second best single of 1984 by Radio One's Janice Long, but Spe- cials producer, John A Rivers has honed the Loft's sound down to four tracks of feisty guitar music which stands out from the current crop of tints and synths. The Loft have been described as " Il ciclone punko" in Italy, but it's here that the band look set to kick up a storm. the dreaded words ' computer generated' hardly make you glow with user friendliness, then Max Headroom might make you think again. Max is a TV host but also a film. His 60 minute feature is screened this Thursday, April 4, on Channel 4. Set in the near future, it's a world where TV is king and man lives by ratings alone. Net- work 23 has the rating race sewn up due to its invention of blipverts, sinister subliminal adverts which imbed themselves in viewers' minds before they have a chance to switch channels.

    Downloaded from simongarfield.com © Simon Garfield 2005 Who Is That Masked Man? In his heyday Kendo Nagasaki - brutal, silent and with a hint of Samurai savagery - was the most celebrated British wrestler of them all. As his final bout looms, the man with the sword gives up some of his secrets. Observer Sports Monthly, October 2001 Kendo Nagasaki, a man who has earned fame by beating other men until they cry for mercy, is walking around Finsbury in north London in search of a place where he can have his photograph taken. He has short brown hair, a narrow face with a prominent and slightly pinched nose, and deeply set eyes that squint in the sunlight. He wears a dark jacket and black trousers, newly shined shoes, a nice fat metallic watch that he consults to find he is a little early. He has three men with him - his manager, his driver, and his website designer. I recognise his manager first, and call out his name: 'Lloyd!' At this moment, Kendo takes something from his pocket. It is a soft, worn woollen face mask, black with white vertical stripes, and he pulls it on with alarm. It tightens at the back with those little pop-stoppers you find on baseball caps. He looks menacing, he causes the traffic to slow. On this balmy Wednesday afternoon he believes it is as important as ever to keep up appearances. Kendo and his friends find the photographer's studio and move straight for the changing room. This was one of Kendo's two stipulations: a separate changing area screened by a curtain.

    6 Issue 3. Published December 2020 LIFE, LOVE & MEMORIES CHRISTMAS EDITION PUBLISHED BY AGE UK OLDHAM HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED FOR CHILDREN Christmas is a magical time especially for children but for the generation that were young during the 1940’s, during the war years if they were lucky enough to have received presents they would more than likely have been handed down from older children or handmade from whatever material their parents could find which wouldn’t have been much due to the rationing. If you did get toys during your childhood or have given them to your children you may recognise some from the following pages. It’s interesting to note how times have changed. The advert below for the Meccano set is aimed at a boy and on the Bayko Set the girl is sitting holding her doll watching the boy building the house. Girls were predominately given things aimed at them becoming the ‘little housewife’, whilst boys were given things deemed to be masculine including cars, soldiers and even guns and rifles to emulate the cowboy films that they watched. During the 1950’s a film called Davy Crockett was very popular and children, especially boys went round wearing Davy Crockett Hats after watching the film. Davy Crockett Hat TOYS MADE FOR BOYS Fort TOYS MADE FOR GIRLS Dolls House TOYS AND GAMES FOR BOYS AND GIRLS Whip & Top Bagatelle Do you recognise any of the Comics/Annuals from your childhood: Read how in fifteen years of being a Life Story Visitor Volunteer, Maeve has heard some fascinating stories and met some lovely people FIFTEEN YEARS OF LIFE STORY When I retired in 2004 I was determined not to just relax and sit and do nothing.
