I'm wondering if someone on MN may be able to point me in the right direction. I have an idea for a TV programme. I'm not trying to sell the idea, it's just a programme I desperately want to watch... I do understand that ideas for programmes are easy to come by, and it's the development that's the hard bit, but I still think that it has potential... it's a documentary on Apaches, the film on farm safety that rural primary school children were shown at school in the late 70s. It was notoriously horrific (directed by the director of Long Good Friday). I long to know more about how it was made, who wrote it, who approved it, reactions to it from teachers and children, and whether there was an aftermath.
In an ideal world it would be a Film Studies documentary for the Open University, but I'd be happy to see it done as a lightweight I Love the 70s talking head kind of thing.
I know it's a long shot, but having looked at the Pact website, I can't tell which production companies might even potentially be interested in doing this. Does any MNer know?
