Publishers Description: This book explores the formative period of British television drama, concentrating on the years 1936-55. It examines the continuities and changes of early television drama, and the impact this had upon the subsequent golden age. In particular, it questions the caricature of early television drama as photographed stage plays and argues that early television pioneers in fact produced a diverse range of innovative drama productions, using a wide range of techniques.
