Book Description
Based on original archive research, this book traces the emergence of a distinctly British form of TV entertainment: the early BBC uniformed police series. Challenging the commonly held assumption that the genre began with the 1955 series "Dixon of Dock Green", Susan Sydney-Smith suggests that in fact these series were shaped by television’s own evolution in social function from the relaying of news to the replaying of stories.
