It explores the main production paradigms of 1970s television: multi-camera studio video, Outside Broadcast video, and 16mm film. It combines archival research, textual analysis and original interviews with television pioneers such as Alvin Rakoff, Herbert Wise and Margaret Matheson. The book provides production histories and critical analysis of three landmark serials: \u003cem\u003eI, Claudius \u003c\/em\u003e(BBC 1976), \u003cem\u003eThe Mayor of Casterbridge\u003c\/em\u003e (BBC 1978) and \u003cem\u003eTinker Tailor Soldier Spy\u003c\/em\u003e (BBC 1979). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-IN;\"\u003eDr. Douglas McNaughton\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-IN;\"\u003e is a senior lecturer at the University of Brighton.
