My 70's TV Childhood
Commercial Break 4
This week, I journey back to the golden age of British television advertising in the 1970s. Those wonderful commercial breaks were filled with jingles we can still sing today and catchphrases that became part of our everyday language. The 70s were simpler times with no mobile phones or social media, where computers existed largely only in TV shows with their big cabinets, whirring tape spools, and banks of flashing lights doing nothing in particular.From the chocolate treats like Finger of Fudge "It's just enough to give your kids a treat and just enough until it's time...

1.7 Unidentified Flying Oddball (1979) “The Goose Edit”
It’s Goose Week on Time Babble! To celebrate, we’re babbling about Unidentified Flying Oddball (1979), which was directed by Russ Mayberry and stars Dennis Dugan as both our hero, and his android/robot twin, alongside a funeral* of ‘end of career’ british character actors, including Jim Dale as the villain, Ron Moody, Kenneth Moore, John Le Mesurier, Rodney Bewes and Pat Roach, as the magnificent Oaf. 'So many geese in movies - so little time’ is our mantra this week, as we praise the cinematic beauty of the goose-edit, one-take apple eating, and the liberal use, but inappro...

Timothy Bewes, "Free Indirect: The Novel in a Postfictional Age" (Columbia UP, 2022)
What is the purpose of a novel? What purpose or logic do literary critics assign to a novel? How has the novel changed? What does that mean for its readers and literary criticism in the contemporary era? What does novel share with cinema and what does that mean for contemporary thought?Timothy Bewes provides brilliant insights on these questions in his book, Free Indirect: The Novel in a Postfictional Age (Columbia UP, 2022).Everywhere today, we are urged to “connect.” Literary critics celebrate a new "honesty" in contemporary fiction or call for a return to "realism." Yet su...
