This compelling account of a turbulent period in the history of the
BBC opens at a time of national decline under the Labour
governments of Harold Wilson and James Callaghan, and ends during
Margaret Thatcher's iconoclastic Conservative premiership. The
intervening years saw mass unemployment, trade union strikes and
war in Northern Ireland and the Falklands - as well as legendary
BBC programmes such as Live Aid, Fawlty Towers and Dad's Army, The
Singing Detective and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and David
Attenborough's Life on Earth. Comprehensively revised and expanded
for this new edition, Jean Seaton's perceptive study presents an
absorbing analysis of an institution that both reflects Britain and
has helped to define it.
