Edinburgh International Television Festival 1978 - official programme

Price:  £16.00

Graff, Julian ed.
The theme of the 1978 festival was 'taboos in television'; it dealt also with censorship in relation to Northern Ireland. Many b/w illustrations. Discussed such issues as racism in television, and current affairs programmes produced by the ITV regions of the time. This is a fascinating look back seen through the industry itself at the themes and issues that drove creative British television in the late 70's. Large stapled booklet, covers creased and marked, with small closed tear, number written on front cover, good. p73
