Creator of television series such as Shameless, Clocking Off, State
of Play, Reckless, Linda Green and Children's Ward, Paul Abbott is
a British 'showrunner' and writer whose name and reputation for
edgy, intelligent, successful and socio-political programmes holds
significant weight both in the contemporary television industry and
with the public. This is the first book-length academic study of
the television programmes created, written by, and/or
executive-produced, by Abbott. It is also the first academic study
to attempt to consider his complete oeuvre. Within a broadly
chronological structure this book elucidates, decodes and evaluates
key examples of Abbott's output, exhibiting a vital evaluation of
Abbott's work over the past three decades and assessing his
contribution to British television. Engaging with thematic and
ideological notions of the personal, the autobiographical, the
honest, the shameless, the pleasurable and the painful recourse of
the specificity of 'ordinary life', the volume seeks to combine
close textual analysis of Abbott's work with archival research and
specially commissioned interviews with Abbott and other important
industry practitioners. -- .
