Wave goodbye to your friends and relationships. Welcome to the life of a first-year doctor.

And yes, it may leave a scar.

Book Synopsis The British Television Pilot Episodes Research Guide 1936-2015 by : Christopher Perry
Download or read book The British Television Pilot Episodes Research Guide 1936-2015 written by Christopher Perry and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-12 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new idea can become an expensive flop for TV executives. So from the earliest days of television, the concept of a pilot episode seemed like a good idea. Trying out new actors; new situations and new concepts before making a series was good economical sense. It was also tax deductible. Sometimes these pilots were shown on television; sometimes they were so awful they were hidden from sight in archives; and sometimes they were excellent one-offs, but a series seemed elusive and never materialised. Chris Perry has always been fascinated by the pilot episode. So many pilots are made annually, but never seen by audiences. Only a handful appear on screen. It's a hidden world of comedy, variety, drama and factual programming. This volume attempts to lift the lid on the world of the TV pilot by revealing the many transmitted and untransmitted episodes made through the decades.
Book Synopsis The Church on British Television by : Marcus Harmes
Download or read book The Church on British Television written by Marcus Harmes and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will be the first systematic and comprehensive text to analyze the many and contrasting appearances of the Church of England on television. It covers a range of genres and programs including crime drama, science fiction, comedy, including the specific genre of ‘ecclesiastical comedy’, zombie horror and non-fiction broadcasting. Readers interested in church and political history, popular culture, television and broadcasting history, and the social history of modern Britain will find this to be a lively and timely book. Programs that year after year sit enshrined as national favourites (for example Dad’s Army and Midsomer Murders) foreground the Church. From the Queen’s Christmas Message to royal weddings and Coronation Street, the clergy and services of England’s national church abound in television. This book offers detailed analysis of landmark examples of small screen output and raises questions relating to the storytelling strategies of program makers, the way the established Church is delineated, and the transformation over decades of congregations into audiences.

Book Synopsis Contemporary British Television Drama by : James Chapman
Download or read book Contemporary British Television Drama written by James Chapman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early twenty-first century has seen the emergence of a new style of television drama in Britain that adopts the professional practices and production values of high-end American television while remaining emphatically 'British' in content and outlook. This book analyses eight of these dramas - Spooks, Foyle's War, Hustle, Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes, Downton Abbey, Sherlock and Broadchurch - which have all proved popular with audiences and in their different ways represent the thematic and formal paradigms of post-millennial drama. James Chapman locates new British drama in its institutional and economic contexts, considers their critical and popular reception, and analyses their social politics in relation to their representations of class, gender and nationhood. He demonstrates how contemporary drama has mobilised both new and residual elements in re-configuring genres such as the spy series, cop show and costume drama for the cultural tastes of modern audiences. And it concludes that television drama has played an integral role in both the economic and the cultural export of 'Britishness'.
Book Synopsis Group Identities on French and British Television by : Michael Scriven
Download or read book Group Identities on French and British Television written by Michael Scriven and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in audiovisual technology, most notably the advent of the popular usage of digital technology in the last few years, have altered the face of popular television. Thanks to cable, satellite and now digital technology, television broadcasts can reach an international audience. The reaction from cultural critics has been mixed. As the debate concerning the effects of new telecommunications and audiovisual technology continues unabated, this book examines the underlying hypothesis that collective allegiances are moving away from the national paradigm towards the global/local model and provides a balanced appraisal of the depiction of a select number of group identities on television in Britain and France.

Book Synopsis Television's Moment by : Christina von Hodenberg
Download or read book Television's Moment written by Christina von Hodenberg and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Television was one of the forces shaping the cultural revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, when a blockbuster TV series could reach up to a third of a country’s population. This book explores television’s impact on social change by comparing three sitcoms and their audiences. The shows in focus – Till Death Us Do Part in Britain, All in the Family in the United States, and One Heart and One Soul in West Germany – centered on a bigoted anti-hero and his family. Between 1966 and 1979 they saturated popular culture, and managed to accelerate as well as deradicalize value changes and collective attitudes regarding gender roles, sexuality, religion, and race.

Book Synopsis In Conversation with Cinematographers by : David A. Ellis
Download or read book In Conversation with Cinematographers written by David A. Ellis and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although cinematographers are vital to the filmmaking process, they don’t always get the recognition they deserve. Directors of cinematography often are responsible for the look of a film and its lasting impression on the viewer, but their skills are not as readily appreciated as those of directors or screenwriters. David A. Ellis had the privilege of meeting with a number of accomplished cinematographers to discuss their art and craft. In Conversation with Cinematographers features interviews with 21 directors of photography--as well as two notable camera operators--most of whom still work in film and television today. In this volume, readers are taken behind the scenes of some of the most successful films and shows of the last several decades. Interviewed in this book are: • Sue Gibson (Hear My Song, The Forsyte Saga) • Gavin Finney (Colditz, Mr Selfridge, Wolf Hall) • Oliver Stapleton (The Cider House Rules, State and Main, The Proposal) • Phil Meheux (The Fourth Protocol, Casino Royale) • Brian Tufano (Trainspotting, Billy Elliot, The Evacuees) • Clive Tickner (Traffik, The Puppet Masters, Inspector Morse) • Stephen Goldblatt (The Prince of Tides, Angels in America, The Help) • Seamus McGarvey (High Fidelity, Atonement, The Hours) • Peter MacDonald (Excalibur, Hamburger Hill, Rambo 3) • Mike Southon (Gothic, Doctor Who: The Hider in the House) • Rob Hardy (Every Secret Thing, Testament of Youth, Ex Machina) • Harvey Harrison (101 Dalmatians, The Expendables, Sahara) • Mike Valentine (Shakespeare in Love, Skyfall, The Bourne Ultimatum) • Robin Browne (Gandhi, A Passage to India, Air America) • Adam Suschitzky (Life on Mars, The Whisperers) • Ken Westbury (Dr. Fischer of Geneva, The Singing Detective) • Simon Kossoff (Young Charlie Chaplin, Client 9,The Daisy Chain) • Chris Seager (Call the Midwife, Game of Thrones) • David Worley (Quantum of Solace, Thor: The Dark World, The Full Monty) • Trevor Coop (Amadeus, Ballykissangel, Chocolat) • Haris Zambarloukos (Mama Mia, Cinderella, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit) • Peter Hannan (The Gathering Storm, My House in Umbria, The Razor’s Edge) • Roger Pratt (Shadowlands, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Batman) These cinematographers recount their experiences on sets and reveal what it was like to work with some of the most acclaimed directors of recent times, including Danny Boyle, Francis Ford Coppola, Clint Eastwood, Lasse Hallstrom, David Lynch and Steven Spielberg. With valuable insight into the craft of moviemaking and featuring more than forty photos, this collection of interviews will appeal to film professors, scholars, and students, as well as anyone with an interest in the art of cinematography.
