Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
For 30 and more years, they were part of our lives--almost-forgotten figures like Reginald Bosanquet; young Turks who became almost Establishment figures like Jon Snow and Anna Ford; repositories of seriousness like Alastair Burnett and Trevor McDonald. This record of the years of the News at Ten includes a lot of material on the various ways in which the organisation of the flagship of ITN changed with time and it also tells us an impressive amount about the key stories of those years. Biafra and the Moon Landings; the American evacuation of Saigon and the fall of the Berlin Wall; the Falklands war and the miners' strike--News at Ten covered all of these and did so with a fair-mindedness that never skimped analysis, but kept a popular audience with it. The decision to shut down was justified by scheduling, but has also with dumbing down, with a sense that this balancing act is done. Its success was always a matter of tone--responsible journalism that did not talk down, but remembered to whom it was speaking ... And, finally, this intelligent and thoughtful memoir does not neglect those lighter stories with which the programme always used to end-- attack rabbits, golf-stealing crows and exploding cattle. --Roz Kaveney

Synopsis
This definitive book celebrates the programme's finest achievements. Taking a look at over 30 years of broadcasting history it will show why News at Ten became a part of everyday life.
