(Continued.....2nd September 1989) I imagine a show like this, were one to be guided by a tele mogul's Scotsman comments on Mr Murdoch's Edinburgh lecture, would be classified as a quality show. It is certainly no lower on the brow than his examples of tip-top tele - Only Fools and Horses, forsooth! His remark, that if lower quality is a consequence of a market-led, advertising controlled television so be it, but that we can trust its audience to keep programme makers on their quality toes, demonstrates that, with the likes of that opposing imminent Murdocilisation, the battle is lost. Article credited to Stanley Eveling. Published in the Scotsman paper on 2nd September 1989.
