He writes clearly and concisely and with a demonstrable passion for the subject. He pulls off the difficult trick of bringing an impressive breadth of knowledge to this material while also communicating it in helpful and often amusing ways. -Paul Newland, University of Worcester This book constitutes the first full volume dedicated to an academic analysis of theatrically-released spinoff films derived from British radio and television sitcoms. Regularly maligned as the nadir of British film production and marginalised as a last resort for the financially-bereft industry during the 1970s, this study demonstrates that the sitcom spinoff film has instead been a persistent and important presence in British cinema from the 1940s to the present day, and includes works with distinct artistic merit. Alongside an investigation of theeconomic imperative underpinning these productions, i.e. the exploitation of a proven product with a ready-made audience, it is argued that, with a longevity stretching from Arthur Askey and his wartime Band Waggon (1940) to the crew of Kurupt FM and their recent People Just Do Nothing: Big in Japan (2021), the British sitcom spinoff can be interpreted as following a full generic 'life cycle'. Starting with the 'formative' stage where works from Hi Gang! (1941) to I Only Arsked! (1958) establish the genre's characteristics, the spinoff genre moves to its 'classic' stage where, secure for form and content, it enjoys considerable popular success with films like Till Death Us Do Part (1969), On the Buses (1971), The Likely Lads (1976) and Rising Damp (1980); the genre's revival since the late-1990s reveals a more 'parodic' final stage, with films like The League of Gentlemen's Apocalypse (2005) adopting a consciously self-reflective mode. It is also posited that the sitcom spinoff film is a viable source for social history, with the often-stereotypical re-presentations of characters and events an ideological metonym for the concerns of wider British society, notably in issues of class, race, gender and sexuality. Stephen Glynn lectures in Film and Television at De Montfort University, UK. He has published widely on British cinema and genre and previous volumes for Palgrave include The British Pop Music Film (2013), The British School Film (2016) and The British Football Film (2018). 606 $aTelevision broadcasting 606 $aMotion pictures$zGreat Britain 606 $aComedy 606 $aTelevision Studies 606 $aBritish Film and TV 606 $aComedy Studies 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting. 615 0$aMotion pictures 615 0$aComedy. 615 14$aTelevision Studies. 615 24$aBritish Film and TV. 615 24$aComedy Studies. 676 $a791.436170941 700 $aGlynn$b Stephen$f1966-$01769761 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910770254703321 996 $aThe British Sitcom Spinoff Film$94242285 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02241nam 2200361z- 450 001 9910372780803321 005 20210211 035 $a(CKB)4100000010163816 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/41134 035 $a(oapen)doab41134 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010163816 100 $a20202102d2016 |y 0 101 0 $acat 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aAprendre de lletres: literatura i pedagogia, vides paral·leles 210 $cPublicacions i Edicions de la Universitat de Barcelona$d2016 215 $a1 online resource (208 p.) 225 1 $aCol·lecció Pedagogies UB 311 08$a84-475-4014-6 330 $aPedagogia i literatura so?n disciplines humanes amb molts paral·lelismes.
