Talk of Drama

Résumé du livre

Highlighting the decline of artistic aspiration and the advance of market forces, this is an account of television drama, past and present. Taking the late Dennis Potter and the so-called golden age in which he worked as its starting point, this book provides a platform for TV dramatists of today-including renowned auteurs like Alan Bleasdale, Jimmy McGovern, Alan Plater, Lynda La Plante, and Paula Milne. They talk of their struggle for survival in an ever-changing broadcasting climate.
