Özet:
The book gives lively and engaging insights into how and why socially sensitive story lines were taken up by different TV programmes from the late 1980s to the 2000s. Drawing on a series of case studies it traces the path of storylines from initial conception through to audience reception and uses contemporary examples to link practice to theory.
