My fantasy is, if I wasn't on 'Dexter,' I would move my family to London and work for the BBC on 'Doctor Who.' ~ Manny Coto
Albrite Bbc quotes by Manny Coto
We're safe enough now,' he thought, 'we're snug and tight, like an air-raid shelter. We can hold out. It's just the food that worries me. Food and coal for the fire. We've enough for two or three days, not more. By that time ... '
No use thinking ahead as far as that. And they'd be giving directions on the wireless. People would be told what to do. And now, in the midst of many problems, he realised that it was dance music only coming over the air. Not Children's Hour, as it should have been. He glanced at the dial. Yes, they were on the Home Service all right. Dance records. He switched to the Light programme. He knew the reason. The usual programmes had been abandoned. This only happened at exceptional times. Elections, and such. He tried to remember if it had happened in the war ... ("The Birds") ~ Daphne Du Maurier
Albrite Bbc quotes by Daphne Du Maurier
I refuse to have a life partner who spends his days pretending to be on a BBC show. ~ Lisa Lutz
Albrite Bbc quotes by Lisa Lutz
There are no shepherds in Shepherd's Bush. I've been there. It's just houses and stores and roads and the BBC. That's all." pointed out Richard, flatly.
"There are shepherds," said Hunter, from the darkness just next to Richard's ear. "Pray you never meet them. ~ Neil Gaiman
Albrite Bbc quotes by Neil Gaiman
All I can do is advocate changes at the BBC while respecting editorial independence upon which the success of the BBC rests. I can't do anything that requires the BBC to pay certain people certain amounts. ~ Jeremy Hunt
Albrite Bbc quotes by Jeremy Hunt
If you're looking to find a career that makes a difference - and work you really love - this book will show you how. ~ Paul Allen
Albrite Bbc quotes by Paul Allen
Guy of Gisborne: "I understand the king is winning, thanks be to God."

Robin Hood: "He's killing more people."

Gisborne: "Is that not winning?"

Robin: "Show me an argument ever settled with bloodshed, and then I'll call it winning. ~ BBC Robin Hood
Albrite Bbc quotes by BBC Robin Hood
The BBC has the obligation to think big. And at the moment, that clarion call sounds an uncertain note to me. ~ Jonathan Dimbleby
Albrite Bbc quotes by Jonathan Dimbleby
I have been to Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street but cannot get on the BBC. I am very disappointed because it boils down to snobbery. ~ Phil Taylor
Albrite Bbc quotes by Phil Taylor
It was just at the end of the golden era of BBC comedy, which was fantastic. ~ John Leeson
Albrite Bbc quotes by John Leeson
Little in his brief life was lost on him; there are premonitions of Nineteen Eighty-Four even in his memoir of schooldays 'Such, Such Were the Joys'. Experiences in the colonies and the BBC can be seen to have furnished raw materials; so indeed can his reading of Evgeny Zamyatin's We and other dystopian literature from the early days of Stalinism. But the transcendent or crystallising moment undoubtedly occurred in Spain, or at any rate in Catalonia. This was where Orwell suffered the premonitory pangs of a man living under a police regime: a police regime ruling in the name of socialism and the people. For a Westerner, at least, this epiphany was a relatively novel thing; it brushed the sleeves of many thoughtful and humane people, who barely allowed it to interrupt their preoccupation with the 'main enemy', fascism. But on Orwell it made a permanent impression. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Albrite Bbc quotes by Christopher Hitchens
In television the democratization of knowledge and its pedagogical commercial exuberance have become one. Consider from the end of the nineties such BBC history shows as Surviving the Iron Age or The Ship: Retracing Cook's Endeavor Voyage - each shown 2001.... All these shows recruit volunteers who are put into environments conspicuously uncomfortable.... An emphasis on participants' surprise at the difficulties of daily life and a previously unexamined and thus taken for granted assumption of physical comfort is the formula for melodrama in these kinds of shows.... All of them are one part soap opera, one part period recreation - and with folks from our time who invite audience identification as "us," viewers mentally enacting too, playing at, reenacting, shadowing, experimenting, speculating, trying to provide evidence for, various understandings of varying pasts.... "Science" and all it stands for - knowledges broadly understood or our everyday knowledge-managed technologies - are especially lively players in the action.... ~ Katie King
Albrite Bbc quotes by Katie  King
When I was a kid growing up in the '80s, the BBC showed those old Buster Crabbe serials like Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers. So instead of ponderous sci-fi or depressing sci-fi or dystopian sci-fi and all the things we're kind of used to, where it's always raining and it's always dark, I thought, "Wouldn't it be nice to do something that was just fun and absolutely nonstop?" Like, I love writing action, and this thing is that. It's all action. ~ Mark Millar
Albrite Bbc quotes by Mark Millar
Universities are the most anti-Israel mainstream institutions in America. And Westerns journalists nearly always use militant or gunman to describe Islamist terrorists. For Reuters, BBC, the Associated Press, CNN, and nearly all newspapers, it violates moral neutrality to label even a man attempting to smash a bomb-laden car into a nightclub a terrorist. ~ Dennis Prager
Albrite Bbc quotes by Dennis Prager
In the summer of 2004, Malem Jan was sitting with Sirajuddin Haqqani, the second son of Jalaluddin, in their Pakistani base in the North Waziristan town of Miram Shah when they heard their names on the BBC. The Americans were offering $250,000 and $200,000, respectively, as rewards for information leading to their capture. ~ Anand Gopal
Albrite Bbc quotes by Anand Gopal
We took up the offer with the BBC, and that was Monty Python's Flying Circus. I didn't have to submit my ideas to the group. I used to turn up on the days we recorded with a can of film under my arm, and in it went. ~ Terry Gilliam
Albrite Bbc quotes by Terry Gilliam
I sat on the floor and watched TV
Thanking Christ for the BBC
A stupid fucking place to be
Down Rain Street ~ Shane MacGowan
Albrite Bbc quotes by Shane MacGowan
As soon as I got my proper first job, I never did acting again. I think the last thing I did was a Mike Figures film, and then I got a series with the BBC. I'm glad of the experience, because I think it's very, very good to understand what actors go through. ~ Justin Chadwick
Albrite Bbc quotes by Justin Chadwick
People in the BBC are always dying to get out of their open-plan offices. ~ Andrew Davies
Albrite Bbc quotes by Andrew Davies
The BBC is a victim of its own independence. ~ Graham Norton
Albrite Bbc quotes by Graham Norton
Yesterday people were going past my window in t shirts and dresses. But that's the men at the BBC for you. ~ Eddie Mair
Albrite Bbc quotes by Eddie Mair
My wife and I have just returned from Belgium where, courtesy of the hotel TV, we acquired a new perspective on the Iraq war. The difference between BBC, ITV and CNN on the one hand and the channels from Belgium, Germany and France on the other was stark and disturbing. The 'coalition' output, which strongly influences public opinion in Britain, comprises reports from 'embedded' reporters telling us about the mud and dust, press conferences by generals describing the tip of the iceberg they wanted us to see and studio debates among armchair pundits. ~ David Walker
Albrite Bbc quotes by David Walker
The BBC should not have a cheerleader. It should have somebody who runs the organisation in the interests of the public and that should be a chairman. ~ Gavyn Davies
Albrite Bbc quotes by Gavyn Davies
He is more rooted to the idea of home. He created this home...and established routines like watching the BBC and cooking barbecues for friends. It's much harder to dismantle that world and to rebuild it somewhere else. ~ Azar Nafisi
Albrite Bbc quotes by Azar Nafisi
As long as the appointment process is transparent and there is a broad mix of political views among the governors of the BBC, I think the public can feel confident that impartiality and independence are just as important to me as they have been to previous incumbents. ~ Gavyn Davies
Albrite Bbc quotes by Gavyn Davies
Magic is just a term people use for things they're too primitive to understand properly. ~ Justin Richards
Albrite Bbc quotes by Justin Richards
Have you ever had someone? And when I say "had", I'm being indelicate. ~ Irene Adler
Albrite Bbc quotes by Irene Adler
The BBC fulfils a wonderful cultural function. Maybe the problem is that it feels it needs to be everything to everybody. ~ Andrew Davies
Albrite Bbc quotes by Andrew Davies
These days, in the world of apps and social media and … idiot friends, it is literally impossible to avoid spoilers.

If a character dies, it is gonna be the number one trending topic on Twitter, it is gonna be the top trending story on Facebook - and Reddit and Tumblr just turn into a completely uncensored memorial service of memes.

This happens all the time with sports results, but - I shit you not - I once got a notification from the BBC News app saying that a character in a show I was watching had just died! I thought that news notifications are supposed to be for impending natural disasters, not for just ruining my bloody afternoon. ~ Dan Howell
Albrite Bbc quotes by Dan Howell
I'd like to do a kind of 'Sunday Night At The Palladium'-style variety show on the BBC. ~ Anton Du Beke
Albrite Bbc quotes by Anton Du Beke
I've told you, I don't know!' bellowed the Doctor, angrily. 'I can't have an answer for everything.'
Oh, that's a good one, thought Ace. ~ Mark Gatiss
Albrite Bbc quotes by Mark Gatiss
The BBC is another part of the destruction of Great Britain. ~ Norman Tebbit
Albrite Bbc quotes by Norman Tebbit
It was regarded as a responsibility of the BBC to provide programs which have a broad spectrum of interest, and if there was a hole in that spectrum, then the BBC would fill it. ~ David Attenborough
Albrite Bbc quotes by David Attenborough
I went to L.A., and I was on two different studio movies at Fox and Sony, but they were never made in the end. When the second one wasn't happening, I ended up doing an episode of 'Who Do You Think You Are?' for the BBC, and went on a roots trip from England to Kenya, India, and pre-partition India in Pakistan, where my family originally came from. ~ Gurinder Chadha
Albrite Bbc quotes by Gurinder Chadha
I wanted to say, "I'm the Doctor and this is my companion," but I doubted Sophie was a fan of the long-running BBC series. Forget the TARDIS and the sonic screwdriver, the Doctor's best gadget was the psychic paper. I can't tell you how many times I wished I had some. ~ Kevin Hearne
Albrite Bbc quotes by Kevin Hearne
An adaptation I was working on of Trollope's 'The Pallisers' has been axed by the BBC ... I was also going to do Dickens' 'Dombey and Son' but they've asked me to do 'David Copperfield' instead. ~ Andrew Davies
Albrite Bbc quotes by Andrew Davies
Before the BBC, I joined the Navy in order to travel. ~ David Attenborough
Albrite Bbc quotes by David Attenborough
this morning, listening to the BBC news, I learned that half of all prisoners in the UK have the reading age of an eleven-year-old, or below. This ~ Neil Gaiman
Albrite Bbc quotes by Neil Gaiman
When the BBC decided to bring Doctor Who back as a feature film a few years ago, one national newspaper ran a poll to ask its readers who should be the new Doctor, and I topped it. ~ Simon Callow
Albrite Bbc quotes by Simon Callow
The first thing we did was to proclaim our Liverpoolness to the world, and say 'It's all right to come from Liverpool and talk like this'. Before, anybody from Liverpool who made it, like Ted Ray, Tommy Handley, Arthur Askey, had to lose their accent to get on the BBC. ~ John Lennon
Albrite Bbc quotes by John Lennon
