His sister assures him it’s the most important event in his parents’ lives. A girl in his class only wants to know “What passage? Is it rude? It sounds rude!” It is of course the passage from boyhood to manhood, still celebrated by 5,000-year old Jewish tradition at the age of 13.

Jack Rosenthal
Jack Rosenthal by Sue Vice Manchester University Press 2009 £50 hb 202pp for European Journal of Communication by Helena Sheehan Dublin City University The Television Series is a collection of books advancing television studies by focusing on the oeuvre of seminal writers of television drama. Already published are books on such authors as Alan Bennett, Trevor Griffiths, Tony Garnett, Andrew Davies, Alan Clarke, Troy Kennedy Martin and Lynda La Plante. In reviewing a number of earlier titles in the series, Robin Nelson has noted: Following a period in which the death of the author has been much vaunted, this new series tackles head-on the issue of authorial contribution ... This refreshing, overall approach allows due credit to be given to exceptional, creative individuals while fully recognizing that broadcast television production is a complex and collaborative industrial process over which no one individual can have total control ... The Television Series mobilizes a dialogue between different perspectives and critical approaches. In boldly celebrating the achievements of individuals, the accounts of careers also illustrate the collaborative process of television production and the powerplays and tensions involved in trying to articulate a distinctive vision. (Nelson 2007) Because of nature of television production, there is a complex dialectic and often tension of individual vision and creativity with other forces involved. This book captures that dynamic well. Both the series and this book make a useful contribution to television studies by focusing on the role played by certain key authors within the larger dynamics of television production. Jack Rosenthal (1931-2004) hailed from working class Manchester, descended from Russian Jewish immigrants who endured poverty and hard times.

Boring, pious, out of date. ‘Miserabilist’ is the term often used in critical discourses to convey a combined impression of a political and aesthetic dead-end (Thorpe 2005). Certainly, many critics have been worried about exam- ples of the form from the 1990s and early 2000s – such as Brassed Off (1996), The Full Monty (1997), and Billy Elliot (2000). Paul Marris, for instance, argues that The Full Monty and Billy Elliot are ‘Ealing in the North’ – conservative, backward looking elegies, steeped in masculinist ideologies of the past (Marris 2001, p.
