This is the first book-length study of one of the most prolific producers working in British television, responsible for both Cathy Come Home (1966) and This Life (1996-8). The book discusses the ways in which Garnett has shaped the role of the creative producer, and analyses his contribution to a distinctively televisual social realism. -- .
