This book explores the formative period of British television
drama, concentrating on the years 1936-55. It examines the
continuities and changes of early television drama, and the impact
this had upon the subsequent 'golden age'. In particular, it
questions the caricature of early television drama as 'photographed
stage plays' and argues that early television pioneers in fact
produced a diverse range of innovative drama productions, using a
wide range of techniques. It also explores the often competing
definitions about the form and aesthetics of early television drama
both inside and outside the BBC. Given the absence of an
audio-visual record of early television drama, the book uses
written archive material in order to reconstruct how early
television drama looked, and how it was considered by producers and
critics, whilst also offering a critical examination of surviving
dramas, such as Rudolph Cartier's Nineteen Eighty-Four.
