A celebration of all things British television from Greg Bakun, an American collector of British television programmes. The website started as a blog where Bakun would write about a randomly selected programme from his own archive. The site has now evolved and offers a series of podcasts on the same subject but with an emphasis on television preservation, restoration and missing material. Episodes so far include an interview with Chris Perry, CEO of Kaleidoscope, a celebration of Tony Hancock, which presents rare audio recording clips from his shows, and an interview with Sue Malden, the first ever BBC Archive selector. Although not easy to find, the site also includes reviews of DVDs.

A visually incoherent site (a consequence of downloading text direct from other sites) which brings together an impressive amount of information from numerous sources documenting the life and work of the Irish playwright and novelist. The site lists online texts, literature festivals and events, reviews, articles, and other websites and blogs devoted to Beckett. There are audio and film and television sections which indicate when a recording or broadcast is available commercially on CD or DVD (a warning that these are not always up to date) The site also records material available in other countries and in other languages. A small number of titles are streamed.

Originally launched in 2004 by Professor Daniel Fischlin, CASP Version 2 was released in 2007 offering more than double the content, including learning, teaching, multimedia, and research resources and pedagogical tools related to how Shakespeare has been adapted into (and out of) Canadian theatre. The multimedia section streams audio and video content.

This history resource features a crisp, clean design and has a wide range of nicely-illustrated, easily searchable articles, reviews, podcasts, videos and interviews. Although it is aimed at a broad audience rather than a specifically academic one, there is much here that will interest teachers and researchers. Some of the content is directly concerned with pedagogy, such as this piece on history in the classroom which rehearses some of the recent arguments between politicians and academics on how history should be taught, and argues that the use of audiovisual materials in the classroom (such as Blackadder Goes Forth, in teaching the First World War) is more nuanced and critically engaged than the way it tends to be presented by politicians and in the mainstream press. Elsewhere Matthew Jones writes about UCL’s Cultural Memory and British Cinema-going of the 1960s project and among the site’s podcasts is a series on ‘Iconic Texts’, in which academics talk about documents which have had a profound historical impact, such as the Communist Manifesto, Thomas Hobbes’ ‘Leviathan’ and Mary Wolstonecraft’s ‘Vindication of the Rights of Woman’.

The podcast of the Times Higher Education supplement appears as a weekly issue review, and also appears more irregularly in the form of one-off interviews with academics and authors, or discussions concerning a particular aspect of higher education. Examples include a look at education in Palestine, use of social media, and a discussion about university business models and the threats, or opportunities presented by massive open online courses (MOOCS).
