	Sanford, Jeremy
		As the writer of Cathy Come Home and Edna the Inebriate Woman, Jeremy Sandford has the distinction of an output which is the one of the smallest yet possibly the most famous in the history of British television drama.
		Cathy Come Home is surely the most talked about television play ever, and an iconic text in the radical canon of the 1960s Wednesday Play, which has become overshadowed by the association with its director, Ken Loach, and producer, Tony Garnett.
		When Cathy was reshown in 1993 as part of a season commemorating the setting up of the housing charity Shelter, Sandford wrote to the Independent taking issue with a claim that doubts had been raised over the accuracy of the homelessness and family separation statistics given at the end of the play.

	Cathy Come Home
		The programme adopts an episodic structure, depicting the stages in the decline of Cathy and her family across a number of years.
		But is also partly a matter both of the large amount of research on the problem of homelessness which went into the writing of the script and then the amount of time which the script gives to depicting aspects of this problem as it advances the storyline concerning Cathy and her family.
		The resultant effect is one of high immediacy values, providing the viewer with a strong sense of "witness." Where the script broadens its scope to situate Cathy's story in the context of the more general problem, camerawork and sound-recording produce a scopic field and address to the viewer which is that of conventional reportage.

	Cathy Come Home - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cathy Come Home is a British television play, originally broadcast on December 16, 1966 on BBC1.
		Initially their relationship flourishes, they have a child and move into a happy modern home, but when Reg loses his job and they are evicted, their lives spiral downwards through a process of unemployment, squatting, eviction and care homes.
		This realistic style very much helped heighten the impact of the piece, particularly the scene in which Cathy and Reg are forcibly evicted with their children by bailiffs from the home in which they have been unable to keep up rent payments.

		I wrote 'Cathy' in bitterness and anger because I had seen happening to a girl, a neighbour of mine, and her children, the things that happened to Cathy.
		Then 'Cathy' was bought by Tony Garnett for the BBC and there were hundreds of letters at the time of that first showing, thanking me that at last the truth had been told about one area of life as it really is in Britain.
		So, too, were those scenes in which Cathy is trying to sleep out with her family in ruined building, in a tent, anything rather than having to face the humiliation of going into public care.

	BBC - BBC Four Cinema - Cathy Come Home
		Made for The Wednesday Play in 1968, the shattering story of a young homeless couple caught in a poverty trap led to the formation of the homeless charity Shelter, and also helped to invent an entirely new kind of television drama.
		Cathy Come Home was written by Eton and Oxford educated Jeremy Sandford, who insisted that "the upper classes are completely written out," and whose strong social conscience had already led him to write angry documentaries and passionate journalism attacking the flaws in the welfare state.
		A third play was planned but never made, provisionally entitled Till The End Of The Plums, which was to have exposed the plight of gypsies, a subject Sandford devoted much of his life too.

		Its first campaign was to carry forward this message that had come from Cathy and press for action.

		This tells the bleak tale of Cathy, who loses her home...
		Pressure from Shelter eventually led to a change of the law in 1977 which means that homeless families can no longer be treated as the protagonists of "Cathy" were (although the law certainly has its defects - for example the use of bed and breakfast as temporary accommodation, and its non-applicability to single homeless people).
		However the performance of the two leading players in "Cathy" is also perfect.

		Maybe my approach to filming comes from that sense of being an outsider, because of my background; maybe because my parents both came from poor backgrounds, but improved their lives a little and gave us the opportunity to do something more.
