UNIVERSITY OF SALFORD, DEPARTMENT OF MEDIA & PERFORMING ARTS

Description
Contemporary Documentary Archive: the collection consists of mainly documentaries dealing with crime and the police (eg Crimewatch UK, Mersey Blues etc). The collection also includes fly-on-the-wall documentaries and programmes which use ‘hidden cameras’, (eg Neighbours from Hell, Beadle’s About). However, the collection is expanding to include documentaries in general and will perhaps branch out to include current affairs programmes and drama.
