	Attenborough, David
		Despite this rare skill, shared only by a handful of his fellow scientists, mainly in weather reporting, Attenborough was promoted to senior management at the BBC where he served for 15 years.
		As controller of BBC2, he oversaw (and introduced on screen) the arrival of colour on British screens on 1 July 1967, and is credited with turning BBC2 round from elite ghetto to an attractive, varied and increasingly popular alternative to the main channels.
		His skill as scheduler was evidenced in the "common junctions" scheduling policy, which allowed announcers on the two BBC channels to introduce a choice of viewing, a practice which opened the Corporation up to charges of unfair advantage from the commercial broadcasters and contributed indirectly to the pressure for a fourth, commercial channel.

	Comments on 9997 \| Ask MetaFilter
		The annual volumes of the Proceedings of the British Academy contain long obituaries of deceased Fellows, which are often very entertaining to read and provide a excellent portrait of British academic life.
		The British Academy, as verstegan entertainingly notes, is a worthy and venerable organization, but for each one of these, there are dozens of lesser ones vying to splash their letters on anyone with the spare cash.
		For every profession and discipline, there dozens of honorariums and certifications and distinctions and fellows and honorables and exalteds, and it calls to mind the Wizard of Oz, handing out brains and hearts and courage out of a bottomless bag to all comers.
