Reviews

“Leggott’s book is an accessible and fascinating read that will be of interest to a general readership with ties to the North East region as well as those studying regional popular TV. For some it will be a pleasurable trip down memory lane. Its importance, however, lies in its reimagining of long forgotten popular texts … that has been successfully pieced together here for the very first time.” (Ben Lamb, Critical Studies in Television, Vol. 17 (4), 2022)
