Play
For Today Resource
This section of the Hull University Film Studies website is a
resource dedicated to the study of the BBC's play strand Play
for Today. Play for Today was a milestone in the
history of British television, cinema and the wider culture. At its
best, the strand combined a remit encouraging aesthetic
experimentation and political radicalism with the potential to
reach audiences of millions, free-to-air, on primetime BBC1 (at a
time when there were far fewer channels to watch). This combination
makes Play for Today a true ‘National Theatre'. (Details>>)
