This is the official blog of the ‘History of Forgotten Television Drama in the UK’ project within the Centre for the History of Television Culture and Production, Royal Holloway, University of London. The research project has involved the investigation of material that has been unfairly forgotten or critically neglected and a re-assessment of its historical significance, cultural importance or artistic achievement.
