  • John Hawkesworth Scope and Content
    JOHN HAWKESWORTH SCOPE AND CONTENT Papers relating to film and television producer, scriptwriter and designer JOHN STANLEY HAWKESWORTH. Born: London, 7 December 1920 Died: Leicester, 30 September 2003 John Hawkesworth was born the son of Lt.General Sir John Hawkesworth and educated at Rugby and Queen's College, Oxford. Between school and university he spent a year studying art at the Sorbonne in Paris, where Picasso corrected his drawings once a week. Following the military tradition of his family, Hawkesworth joined the Grenadier guards in 1940 and had a distinguished World War II record. In 1943 he married Hyacinth Gregson-Ellis and on demobilisation from the army began work in the film industry as an assistant to Vincent Korda. As art director he worked on many films for British Lion including The THIRD MAN (GB, 1949), OUTCAST OF THE ISLANDS (GB, 1951), and The SOUND BARRIER (GB, 1952). As a freelance designer he was involved with The MAN WHO NEVER WAS (GB, 1955) and The PRISONER (GB, 1955). Joining the Rank Organisation as a trainee producer, Hawkesworth worked on several films at Pinewood and was associate producer on WINDOMS WAY (GB, 1957) and TIGER BAY (GB, 1959). Hawkesworth's writing for television began with projects including HIDDEN TRUTH (tx 9/7/1964 - 6/10/1964), BLACKMAIL (Associated Rediffusion tx 1965 - 1966) and the 13 part BBC series CONAN DOYLE (tx 15/1/1967 - 23/4/1967), before embarking on the acclaimed LWT series The GOLDROBBERS (tx 6/6/1969 - 29/4/1969). It was with the latter that the Sagitta Production Company who were to produce the highly successful Edwardian series UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS (tx 1970 - 1975) for LWT, came into existence, making Hawkesworth and his long term professional partner Alfred Shaughnessy household names.

Voters making selections in their own branch categories list only film titles on their ballots, not the individuals responsible for the various achievements. For that reason, as well as for reasons of printing time and convenience of using this pamphlet, full credit rosters are not provided for the listed films. An exception to the above exists in the four Acting categories, where simply listing titles would not provide enough voting information. Actors Branch members filling out their Nominations ballots must indicate both titles and the particular performers they are voting for. For that reason, the Reminder List provides a listing of up to fifty cast members for each film. Pictures eligible in the Animated Feature Film, Documentary Feature and Foreign Language Film categories are also eligible in the Best Picture category, provided they meet the qualifications for the category.

  • Candidate Hub: a Manifesto on Voter Apathy
    Candidate Hub: a manifesto on voter apathy Voter apathy in the United Kingdom is an ever-increasing feature of our once highly- regarded democracy.1 Low election turnouts due to voter apathy are a cause of concern in the UK. General Election turnouts have fallen from 77.7% to 65.1% between 1992 and 2010, with the projections for 2015 looking worse again.2 Low turnouts are indicative of failing democracies and result in unequal representation. In the UK, there is a genuine disconnect between people and the policies that affect their lives. This cannot be allowed to continue. 1 - http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/apathy-alienation-how-disengaged-four-in- ten-voters-reject-all-parties-8940389.html 2 - http://www.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2012/nov/16/uk-election-turnouts-historic Candidate Hub 2014 - to contact us, email [email protected] 1 Candidate Hub In 2012, the Manchester Central by-election attracted a turnout of only 18%. Although by- elections are expected to have low turnouts, due to a lack of public awareness and media attention, 18% is the lowest turnout for any election in Post-War Britain.3 This result follows the constituency’s general election turn-out of just 44.3% in 2010, the lowest in the UK.4 There has obviously been some disconnect between the people of this constituency and the parties and candidates vying to represent them. The Guardian interviewed some young people in the Manchester Central constituency to inquire about their lack of participation, one respondent replied that he wouldn’t vote because he didn’t “know much about politics”.5 The problem might not be solved easily, but more has to be done.
