It provides an insight into key events, personalities, programmes, internal politics and trends in popular entertainment, censorship and anti-American policy as they individually or collectively affected the Department. Martin Dibbs examines how the Department's programmes became markers in the daily and weekly lives of millions of listeners, and helped shape the nation's listening habits when radio was the dominant source of domestic entertainment. The book explores events and topics which, while not directly forming part of the Variety Department's history, nevertheless intersected with or had an impact on it. Such topics include the BBC's attitude to jazz and rock and roll, the arrival of television with its impact on radio, the pirate radio stations, and the Popular Music and Gramophone Departments, both of whom worked closely with the Variety Department. 001359802 647_7 $$aWorld War$$d(1939-1945)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01180924 001359802 650_0 $$aGreat Britain-History. 001359802 650_0 $$aSocial history. 001359802 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945. 001359802 650_0 $$aCivilization$$xHistory. 001359802 650_0 $$aJournalism. 001359802 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001359802 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319956084 001359802 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319956107 001359802 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in the history of the media. 001359802 852__ $$bebk 001359802 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-95609-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001359802 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1359802$$pGLOBAL_SET 001359802 980__ $$aBIB 001359802 980__ $$aEBOOK 001359802 982__ $$aEbook 001359802 983__ $$aOnline 001359802 994__ $$a92$$bISE
