• The British Film Business

    A fascinating read both for the general reader on film and also those with a serious interest in the subject of the film industry and film–making For the past 80 years the British film industry has struggled to compete with Hollywood. The early control of distribution by American companies in London and the lack of investment in domestic production gave Hollywood a commercial advantage that persists to this day. Successive British governments have introduced measures to protect the industry from overseas competition and stimulate British production, all with little long–term success. This book traces the history of the British film business from the days of the early pioneers, through its near collapse in the immediate post–war era to the current age of digitally enhanced blockbusters. The authors chart the successes and failures and show how Government intervention has often failed to assist the industry. They provide comment on recent developments and suggest how these could help British film making talent reach the wider audience that it frequently deserves. Bill Baillieu is a non–practising barrister with twenty years corporate finance and licensing experience in the development and funding of creative and growth businesses. His career began in the venture capital industry in the City of London, and he now specialises in the management, exploitation and valuation of intellectual property rights ranging from copyright portfolios to patented technology. John Goodchild is an experienced investment analyst and currently an associate with the London stockbrokers Walker Crips Weddle Beck plc. He has been fascinated by the British cinema since childhood when he first heard his aunta s recollections of life as a wardrobe assistant at Gainsborough Studios in the 1930s. He is also joint editor of Professional Investor where Bill Baillieua s articles on the industry were the starting point for The British Film Business

  • The British Sign Language : The Origin Of British Sign Language

    01

    The origins of BSL can be traced back to early sign languages used by deaf individuals in Britain. These early sign languages were likely influenced by local gestures and signs used in communities, as well as the manual communication methods employed in educational institutions for the deaf. In the 18th century, a breakthrough occurred when a man named Thomas Braidwood opened a school for the deaf in Edinburgh, Scotland. His teaching methods included a combination of manual alphabets and signs, which likely contributed to the development of a more standardized sign language system.

  • The British Transport Commission Group: Former Thomas Tilling Companies in the 1960s

    03
    This fascinating and informative book looks at the Tilling Group of bus companies during the 1960s. These operated approximately half of the inter-urban and rural bus services in England and Wales, and were nationalised by Clement Attlee’s Labour Government in 1948 under the control of the British Transport Commission. Ownership passed to the Transport Holding Company Ltd in 1963, though the fleets remained under Tilling Group control. During the period covered by this book, the operators within the group had very standardised fleets, with the vast majority of their buses and coaches having Bristol chassis and Eastern Coachworks (ECW) bodywork. This was a result of these manufacturers also having been nationalised and controlled by the BTC and THC. However, some Tilling Group operators still had earlier vehicles with, for instance, AEC or Leyland chassis, which were acquired prior to the requirement for them to buy only Bristol products, whilst some also had coaches with Bedford or Ford Thames chassis built in the 1950s and 1960s. Unlike the BET fleets throughout England and Wales, most Tilling fleets also had highly standardised liveries, either of red with cream relief, or green with cream relief for their stage carriage buses, or the reverse of this for their coaches. There were some exceptions, though. The most obvious ones were Midland General and Notts & Derby, whose livery was an attractive dark blue and cream; as well as the Royal Blue coaches of Southern and Western National and the maroon and cream coaches of Thames Valley subsidiary South Midland. All Tilling Group companies became part of the National Bus Company in early 1969, and before long their traditional liveries became just a memory when the NBC imposed standard red or green liveries. Throughout most of the 1960s, Jim Blake travelled to these operators and photographed their vehicles, and spent many summer Saturdays at London’s Victoria Coach Station, where their service buses as well as express coaches could be seen. He was fortunate to capture much of this changing transport scene on film, and presents some of these photographs in this volume. Many have never been published before.

  • The British Transport Police: An Illustrated History

    08
    The British Transport Police has the most diverse history of any police force in the world. It can trace its origins back to 1826, and is made up from over 240 railway, dock and canal forces. Early railway companies maintained their own police forces, but following the First World War these smaller companies were amalgamated into four large companies. In 1948 following the nationalisation of the transport infrastructure the force took responsibility for policing the railways, ports and canals as the British Transport Commission Police, the first national police force in the United Kingdom. The BTC was dissolved in 1963 but the force remained as the British Transport Police. From the beginning the force has been at the forefront of policing innovation such as being the first force to use dogs, employing women as uniformed officers, the introduction of a computerised crime reporting procedure and the first to use technology to arrest a murder suspect. Although diminished in size and areas of responsibility since privatisation of the UK transport infrastructure, the force has moved with the demands of modern policing. This book is an illustrated history of this unique force working to keep the travelling public safe.

  • The British Working Class in Postwar Film

    01
    An incidental pleasure of watching a film is what it tells us about the society in which it is made. Using a sociological model, The British working class in postwar film looks at how working-class people are portrayed in British feature films from the decade after the Second World War. Though some of the films examined are well known, others have been forgotten and deserve reassessment. Original statistical data is used to assess the popularity of the films with audiences. With an interdisciplinary approach and the avoidance of jargon, this book seeks to broaden the approach to film studies. Students of media and cultural studies are introduced to the skills of other disciplines, while sociologists and historians are encouraged to consider the value of film evidence in their own fields. The work should appeal to all readers interested in social history and in how cinema and society interact. 1. Exploring a lost culture 2. Who were the workers? 3. The guns fall silent: Recollections of war 4. People don’t lock their doors: The working-class community 5. Family fortunes: Portrayals of the working-class family 6.

    ‘I was mesmerised’ LAURA SHEPPERSON, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Heroines

    ‘This gripping, vividly evoked novel takes the reader to the dark heart of the 16th century … unforgettable’ Tracy Borman, author of The King’s Witch

    Nothing scares men like witchcraft…

    1589. Scottish housemaid Geillis and Danish courtier Margareta lead opposite lives, but they both know one thing: when a man cries “witch”, no woman is safe.

    Yet when the marriage of King James VI and Princess Anna of Denmark brings Geillis and Margareta together, everything they supposed about good, evil, men, and women, is cast in a strange and brilliant new light.

    For the first time in history, could black magic – or rumours of it – be a very real tool for women’s political gain?

    As the North Berwick witch trials whip Scotland – and her king – into a frenzy of paranoia, the clock is ticking. Can Margareta and Geillis keep each other safe? And once the burnings are over, in whose hands will power truly lie?

    Inspired by the incredible true story that set 16th-century Scotland and Denmark alight, The Burnings is 2023’s most bewitching debut novel, by a multi-awardwinning new star of historical fiction.

But it’s off-season, the hotel is falling apart and now she has to share the beach with someone else: a grumpy, stressed-out guy called Finn. How can she commune with nature when he’s sitting on a rock, watching her? Especially when they don’t agree on burnout cures. (Sasha: manifesting, wild swimming, secret chocolate bars; Finn: drinking whisky.)

    08
    In December 2005, London lost one its most famous symbols: the Routemaster bus – a bus designed and made in London, by Londoners for Londoners, which was to London what the gondola is to Venice. In terms of postcards, books, films and cheap souvenirs, and in the eyes of the world, the Routemaster represented the city just as much as Big Ben. It was the last bus to be have conductors as well as drivers, the last bus to ring familiar shouts that are at least a century old: ‘Fares please,’ ‘Full up inside but room on top,’ ‘Next stop the British Museum’! The last bus, in other words, to be a proper bus. In this fond history, Travis Elborough tells the story of the Routemaster’s invention, rise and decline, of the people who worked on it and of the enthusiasts who were mad about it. The streets will never be the same again.

  • The Business of Platforms: Strategy in the Age of Digital Competition, Innovation, and Power

    03

    A trio of experts on high-tech business strategy and innovation reveal the principles that have made platform businesses the most valuable firms in the world and the first trillion-dollar companies.

    Managers and entrepreneurs in the digital era must learn to live in two worlds—the conventional economy and the platform economy. Platforms that operate for business purposes usually exist at the level of an industry or ecosystem, bringing together individuals and organizations so they can innovate and interact in ways not otherwise possible. Platforms create economic value far beyond what we see in conventional companies.

    The Business of Platforms is an invaluable, in-depth look at platform strategy and digital innovation. Cusumano, Gawer, and Yoffie address how a small number of companies have come to exert extraordinary influence over every dimension of our personal, professional, and political lives. They explain how these new entities differ from the powerful corporations of the past. They also question whether there are limits to the market dominance and expansion of these digital juggernauts. Finally, they discuss the role governments should play in rethinking data privacy laws, antitrust, and other regulations that could reign in abuses from these powerful businesses.

    Their goal is to help managers and entrepreneurs build platform businesses that can stand the test of time and win their share of battles with both digital and conventional competitors. As experts who have studied and worked with these firms for some thirty years, this book is the most authoritative and timely investigation yet of the powerful economic and technological forces that make platform businesses, from Amazon and Apple to Microsoft, Facebook, and Google—all dominant players in shaping the global economy, the future of work, and the political world we now face.

    Winner of the 2018 PEN/E.O. Wilson Prize for Literary Science Writing
    Shortlisted for the 2018 Wellcome Book Prize
    Shortlisted for the 2018 Wolfson Prize

    The story of a visionary British surgeon whose quest to unite science and medicine delivered us into the modern world – the safest time to be alive in human history

    In The Butchering Art, historian Lindsey Fitzharris recreates a critical turning point in the history of medicine, when Joseph Lister transformed surgery from a brutal, harrowing practice to the safe, vaunted profession we know today.

    Victorian operating theatres were known as ‘gateways of death’, Fitzharris reminds us, since half of those who underwent surgery didn’t survive the experience. This was an era when a broken leg could lead to amputation, when surgeons often lacked university degrees, and were still known to ransack cemeteries to find cadavers. While the discovery of anaesthesia somewhat lessened the misery for patients, ironically it led to more deaths, as surgeons took greater risks. In squalid, overcrowded hospitals, doctors remained baffled by the persistent infections that kept mortality rates stubbornly high.

    At a time when surgery couldn’t have been more dangerous, an unlikely figure stepped forward: Joseph Lister, a young, melancholy Quaker surgeon. By making the audacious claim that germs were the source of all infection – and could be treated with antiseptics – he changed the history of medicine forever.

    With a novelist’s eye for detail, Fitzharris brilliantly conjures up the grisly world of Victorian surgery, revealing how one of Britain’s greatest medical minds finally brought centuries of savagery, sawing and gangrene to an end.

  • The Byrds On Track: Every Album, Every Song

    03
    The Byrds were just a little bit ahead of their time. By releasing six genre-defining albums in three years, their transformative powers took electric guitars to traditional folk music, brought jazz into psychedelic pop and helped introduce what we now know as Americana, by being the first major rock band to embrace the sound of Nashville. They were heralded as the pioneers of folk rock, acid rock and country rock, and that’s not to mention space rock, abstract electronics and all the inter-genre crossover material that defines most of their albums. They influenced so many of the musical movements that followed as they kept moving in constant progression, hungry to push the boundaries of popular music. Combining a brief history of the band, and their legacy, this book examines each one of the band’s 12 studio albums. It highlights the many high points, especially from their mercurial 1965 – 1968 era, and the less successful later years when the law of diminishing returns took over. Also discussed within the ‘Connected Flights’ part of each chapter are the band’s contemporaneous non-album singles and B-sides. Previously unreleased tracks that were later released as part of their extensive reissue campaigns will also be covered, making this book one of the most extensive guides to The Byrds’ music yet produced.

Saddled with newly promoted Detective Constable Kerr, whose attitudes to police work differ sharply to his own, Fusil must overcome his own judgements to get to the bottom of the case.

    BOOK 2: CIRCLE OF DANGER
    Three drownings in three months: Fusil refuses to accept the coroner’s verdicts of accidental deaths. Leading the investigation, Kerr is forced into the centre of a drugs ring and becomes enthralled with a potentially dangerous woman. Can he untangle his feelings to catch the real criminals?

    BOOK 3: MURDER AMONG THIEVES
    A well-planned heist against a supposedly ‘robbery-proof’ van leaves two guards dead and two others badly hurt — and huge sums of money missing. As Fusil closes in on the armed gang, the suspects show up murdered, one by one. Who is really responsible for the armed robbery?

    BOOK 4: GUILT WITHOUT PROOF
    Fusil seeks to connect a hijacked lorry with a corpse discovered in a burnt-out cellar. He is frustrated by over-attentive superiors, a lack of funds and political squabbles. DI Fusil disregards orders in search of the truth.

    BOOK 5: DESPITE THE EVIDENCE
    Constable Kerr stumbles upon a dead or dying man in a crashed car, but is suddenly knocked unconscious. When he recovers, he learns the man is fine, but he is convinced there is more at play and uncovers a trail of theft and murder.

    BOOK 6: CALL BACK TO CRIME
    Fusil and Kerr disregard their bosses’ objections and stubbornly search for a link between a woman killed in an ‘accidental’ fire and the assault of an ex-convict. Is the one-time villain being blackmailed back into a life of crime?

    BOOK 7: FIELD OF FIRE
    Fusil’s team uncover an assassination plot threatening two state visits. Then a brutal murder follows and a car plunges into the water at the local docks with the driver still inside. Things are only going to get worse for Fortrow C.I.D.

    MEET THE DETECTIVE
    Detective Inspector Robert Fusil is a dedicated C.I.D. man and a gifted police officer, but he’s not averse to bending the rules if he needs to. That makes his superiors, and sometimes his juniors, wary. They appreciate Fusil’s no-nonsense attitude and ability to solve — often ingeniously — the most complex of cases, but keep an eye on him, just in case.

  • The Cabbage Babies: Repopulation Postcards & the First Movie Ever Made

    Where do babies come from? According to hundreds of early 1900s postcards, they hail from “Cabbage Patches.” Far from being just an ’80s doll craze, the idea of Cabbage Patch babies has roots that span centuries. These aren’t just quirky artworks; they’re early precursors to the surrealism movement, and they hint at a darker, lesser-known history. Embark on a captivating journey through alternative history as we decode the messages in these artworks. These are genuine postcards from 1900-1920s, sent across Europe and the US, many containing clues in the messages on their backs. By delving into lesser-known histories like the orphan trains and foundling hospitals, and even tapping into ancient references, we shed new light on these fascinating postcards.
