with peter cushing and yvonne mitchell the sunday night play on bbc television has become almost a national institution indeed it is often said that television drama entering as it does millions of homes fills the need for a national theatre in britain in 1946 when the bbc television service resumed after the war the whole field of international theatre was ready to be explored since then the world s plays hundred by hundred have been given new meaning and new audiences through the eyes of the television camera today the drama department is extending its scope more and more plays are being specially written for the television screen so the new writer takes his place alongside ibsen and shakespeare and in these plays are presented some of britain s most distinguished actors and actresses

sporting events as in this fifth test match between england and south africa are now part of the service for bbc viewers in the summer visits to the oval or lord s and wimbledon in the winter visits

2 november 1956 by bbc television bbc television talks is a department which has created its own character a talks programme does not consist simply of putting a man in front of a camera to talk it can be a series of zoo quests about animals and jungles it can be a current affairs magazine like panorama it can be orson welles or jacqueline mackenzie under talks you will find the men of politics and the men of learning the archæologists discussing the latest finds and sparking off new interest in books and courses on archæology bookmen and scientists and social historians and just ordinary people of the world whose activities are part of our affairs the bbc s royal charter speaks of the value of broadcasting as a means to inform and educate as well as to entertain all these three principles are to be found embraced in the talks programmes and through these programmes some of our most distinguished experts have become as familiar to the home as the professional entertainer sir mortimer wheeler and dr glyn daniel have become television personalities in their own right they have made archæology bright and interesting whether through animal vegetable mineral or as pictured

one time light entertainment followed the example of the music hall the act was the staple ingredient but bbc television developed its own forms of comedy now more and more shows are based on a single personality it is around their particular talent that the show is moulded it is light entertainment s task to provide all types of humour from slapstick to satire but it has developed far beyond the variety stage conception of entertainment now there are serials to be done spectaculars to produce and new artists to be groomed to find those elusive laughs in the audience bill maynard and terry scott are examples of the new age in light entertainment they were newcomers who were given a chance on the television screen and they took it with the help of miss shirley eaton to become star names
