How does television see itself? Get inside the box with this selection of insider accounts of a rapidly changing medium.
By the 1970s, TV in Britain was not just a booming cultural industry but the nation's dominant medium for entertainment and news. This collection shows how television looked at itself, whether questioning, critical or just self-congratulatory. The programmes highlight a period of extraordinary change, with technology and industry evolving rapidly, and the multi-channel era we know now just beginning to emerge.
