Synopsis
Within 17 years of the first ever public broadcast in the UK, Britain again found itself at war. From humble, or 'tedious' beginnings broadcasting to localities during those early years, the Home Office and the BBC suddenly awakened to the potential wartime benefits of public radio. Behind the curtains of a million blacked-out homes the Home Service sought to keep the nation informed, upbeat and entertained. When Radio Came of Age examines the relationship between the government, the corporation and the listener - the triumphs and the controversies. We discover just how influential public broadcasting became among a people capable of displaying remarkable indifference in perilous circumstances, and yet could act almost as one in the interest of patriotic unity in their country's hour of greatest need.

Paperback. Etat : New. Within seventeen years of the first public broadcast in Britain, the nation again found itself at war. As the Second World War progressed, the BBC eventually realised the potential benefits of public radio and the service became vital in keeping an anxious public informed, upbeat and entertained behind the curtains of millions of blacked-out homes. The Radio Front examines just how the BBC reinvented itself and delivered its carefully controlled propaganda to listeners in the UK and throughout Nazi-occupied Europe. It also reveals the BBC's often-strained relationships with the government, military and public as the organisation sought to influence opinion and safeguard public morale without damaging its growing reputation for objectivity and veracity.Using original source material, historian and author Ron Bateman tracks the BBC's growth during the Second World War from its unorganised and humble beginnings to the development of a huge overseas and European operation, and also evaluates the importance of iconic broadcasts from the likes of J.B. Priestley, Vera Lynn and Tommy Handley. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9780750996648
