Introduction: overview of activities in 2004/5 The V&A at South Kensington was named ‘Large Visitor Attraction of the Year’ and the V&A Museum of Childhood won the ‘People's Award for Favourite Children's Attraction’ in the Visit London Awards 2004. The V&A met all quantitative targets in the Funding Agreement; some were substantially exceeded. Nevertheless , the Funding Agreement cannot – indeed, does not aim to – represent all of the activities of such a diverse and complex organisation as the V&A. This introduction expands upon some of the areas represented under the performance measures and includes areas not otherwise covered in order to indicate how the Museum has achieved its successes during the year. -

The Date-A-Base Book 2015
The Date-A-Base Book 2015 Copyright © Dave and Kate Haslett 2014 First published in Great Britain in 2014 by ideas4writers 2a New Street Cullompton Devon EX15 1HA The right of Dave and Kate Haslett to be identified as the authors of this work has been asserted by them in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 All rights reserved No part of this publication may be stored, copied or reproduced in any form without the express written permission of the authors Please help support ideas4writers by telling people about this book! Introduction Welcome to the eighth edition of The Date-A-Base Book! As always, every entry has been cross-checked in Encyclopaedia Britannica and on official websites and other sources. This is not an easy process as there’s an awful lot of “disinformation” out there, and it’s definitely getting worse. Whenever there was doubt – which there frequently was – we’ve tried to go back to the original source. Even so, we advise you to double-check each date before using it, and satisfy yourself that it is 100% correct. If you come across any mistakes please let us know. We’ll post any corrections we hear about on the official ideas4writers blog: http://ideas4writers.wordpress.com As far as possible we’ve used New Style (NS) dates from the Gregorian calendar. Celebrities are notorious for knocking a few years off their ages. Wherever possible we’ve given both their real and claimed dates of birth, and noted which is which. Similarly, they don’t always go by their real names, so we’ve used the names by which they are most commonly known. -

A visual cornucopia of entertainment, pop music, phone-ins with big name guests and viewers questions that know no boundaries, cartoons, games, the occasional adventure stunt, and comedy all taking place within one show. The viewer on the other hand is relaxed, possibly still in their pyjamas with a bowl of cereal on hand, knowing that amongst the fast paced antics, they’re in safe hands of up-for-a-laugh presenters, with a one-to-one relationship that’s crucial within a thriving atmosphere of this kind. All those conventions when blended together are associated with only one genre of television; the live Saturday morning magazine show. For over 30 years, both the BBC and ITV spent that one day of the week breaking the rules of conventional television, and that fact that it was primarily aimed at children meant that if anything went wrong, no one cared. -

BBC ONE AUTUMN 2003 THE COMING SEASON ON BBC ONE DRAMA 02 ENTERTAINMENT 08 FACTUAL 14 SPORT 24 CBBC & DAYTIME 28 INDEX 32 COPYRIGHT NOTICE The material contained in this Press Pack bulletin is protected by copyright which is owned by the BBC and may not be reproduced or used other than in respect to BBC programmes. © BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION 2003 DRAMA CHARLES II A dynamic romp through history - racy, visceral and violent – Charles II is set in the corridors and bedrooms of power, when the conflict between monarch and State was at a crossroads. Starring Rufus Sewell as King Charles II, Rupert Graves, Helen McCrory, Martin Freeman, Dame Diana Rigg and Ian McDiarmid. The drama focuses on the court of King Charles II, his squabbling family and his glamorous mistresses – from the high-born and promiscuous Barbara Villiers (Helen McCrory) through folk heroine and sex symbol of the day Nell Gwynne, to French spy Louise de Keroualle (Mélanie Thierry). From the pen of award-winning screenwriter Adrian Hodges, whose credits include David Copperfield and The Lost World, this ambitious and original take on Charles’s reign penetrates to the heart of the charismatic monarch who was deeply traumatised by the execution of his father. Charles Stuart is destitute, weary and hopeless. After nearly a decade in exile from Republican England, never did the prospects of regaining his crown seem so bleak - until canny General Monck persuades Parliament to invite him back to take up the throne. Charles’s triumphant ride into London on his 30th birthday segues into another victory: the long-anticipated seduction of beautiful, tantalising Barbara Villiers, who has been holding out on him for several months. -
