The BBC

A Century on Air

David Hendy
David Hendy’s account of the BBC’s history covers its complex birth and relationship with the Governmental  alongside discussions that sheds light on those working there, including the freelance ‘penny-a-line’ writers, foreign correspondents and the typist who typed up and copied the D-Day plans. The result is a deep insight into the radical changes in British society, from the first Shipping Forecast, through 1970s light entertainment and into the 21st century.
