Description

.BBC : The Secret Life of the Airport (2009)



Information:
Three-part series charting the development of Britain's airports and how they have transformed the country, in the process creating both freedom and fear.

Part 1 : Preparing for Take Off ---> http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00l7q57
/>
This part navigates from the heady, imperial glamour of Britain's first airport terminal at Croydon to the internationally-agreed hieroglyphics on today's taxiways and runways. Using rare archive and access to airports' hidden corners, it reveals the intense local rivalry, skulduggery and sheer passion for flight behind our airports.

Contributors include architect Lord Foster, philosopher and author Alain de Botton, veterans of Britain's interwar airports and a 'wildlife control co-ordinator', talking about how, in 100 years, the muddy airfield became the 24-hour airport.

First Broadcast : Mon 15 Jun 2009, 21:00, on BBC Four.

Part 2 : Joining the Jet Set --->

This part explores the golden age of jet travel, when 'money, tickets, passport' became the mantra of the moving masses. Using rare archive and contributions from early travellers and airport workers, it looks at how airports expanded our horizons and the repercussions that these gateways of the globe had for British society.

Contributors include Design Museum director Deyan Sudjic and author Sarfraz Manzoor.

First Broadcast : Mon 22 Jun 2009, 21:00, on BBC Four.

Part 3 : The Final Approach --->

First Broadcast : Mon 29 Jun 2009, 21:00, on BBC Four.
