'I used to think of #DennisPotter as a kind of escape artist, exploding the box in innumerable directions, but he’s more interesting. He’s already outside, already an outsider, examining the box from without'
Dennis Potter’s TV Plays Were Guides to the Purgatory of the Modern Age

the brilliant and perspicacious #DennisPotter and his lament on the evils of #RupertMurdoch - it's a cruel world that men like Potter leave us and Murdoch lives on. #writers #tvsky
i wish i had met #DennisPotter - a brilliant artist and one who named his terminal cancer "Rupert" after #RupertMurdoch whom he despised and correctly indentified as a cancer. We should have listened. No one listened. Look where we are now. This interview gives me chills. #writers #tvsky

I often think of this moment. And now more than ever. If you've never seen it, do.

As today (24/02/25) marks the 60th anniversary of the debut of #DennisPotter as a television dramatist, delighted to team up with Tom May on a new piece on Potter's very first TV play #TheConfidenceCourse. A few new research nuggets in there.

The brilliant #DennisPotter named the cancer that killed him in the 90s ‘Rupert’. Prescient.

The quality these days is woeful, in inverse relationship to the quantity.
Anyone else on here remember the wonderful #DennisPotter?
- Pennies from Heaven
- Lipstick on my collar
- The singing detective
etc.
Can't find them now! I don't think any streaming service has them either.

Flexing my Photoshop muscles, just in case the BFI ever release this and need a cover.

Watching #Traitor on #BBCFour by #DennisPotter. John Le Mesurier is a brilliant actor. A drunk and broken academic idealist.
