Photography Cornucopia?- BBC4 Monday 24th May
I have attached a ? because it may not turn out as interesting as it seems but the following programmes are on BBC4 this coming Monday evening:
9:00pm Great British Photography Challenge Seemingly a new series. Rankin challenges 6 amateurs to take pictures in various different situations with what appears to be a variety of cameras. 10:00 Mark Lawson talks to David Bailey 11:00 Britain in Focus: This is a repeat where A Eamonn McCabe charts the history of photography 12:00 What Do Artists Do All Day? Profile of photographer Dennis Morris who looks back on his photography of the Punk scene and London's black community It would appear that only the Rankin Challenge is repeated on both the early hours of Tuesday at 2:30 -3:30am and on Wednesday at 11:00pm as well Mike |

Thanks for the prompt Mike.
I think I've seen them all before, but with so little on the telly about photography, I'll tape them and watch them again over a few days with breakfast and a cuppa. It's just a bit strange that they put so much on together in one go, rather than spread it out and make it look like they're showing more. Anyway, some is better than none. Terry S |

The BBC seem to like to have 'an evening of' type scheduling.

Cheers for the heads up Mike. I think I have only seen the Eamonn McCabe programme so the others may prove interesting.

There's a series of "What do artists do all day" programmes....the one i remember most was Albert Watson.

Interestingly I heard part of an interview with what appears to be one of the participants in tonight's Rankin Challenge. As this was Radio Northampton I assume that the person is based in this location.
So why am I telling you this? Well I think I am introducing a depressing aspect in that I have no direct evidence as yet but given this person started photography 10 years ago and inhabits Instagram and Flickr I strongly suspect he is 100% digital as I depressingly assume all the rest of the participants will be but we shall see. I remain sceptical of the real size in the revival of film photography that some pundits are heralding with a fanfare of trumpets and long to see somebody on such programmes who at least occasionally uses film or mentions wanting to dip his toes in film water or even be curious about it. At that point I may just begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel Mike - in Monday morning mood |

Not all are about photography, but I have enjoyed the majority of them very much and I too remember the Albert Watson episode, where he took to setting off some form of fireworks to photograph close ups of trees through the smoke...?... Quote:

Thanks, Terry and so much for the word "New" in front of the word "Series" in the Radio Times

Remember that BBC4 is gearing up to be the 'Archive' channel. No new productions, just old stuff, great loss. This one might be 'new' however; it is still a compilation of existing material though. On Camera: Photographers at the BBC. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08jgr3w
