	Bakewell, Joan
		Joan Bakewell has been one of the most respected presenters and commentators on British radio and television over a period of some thirty years.
		Even when presenting holiday reports from various exotic parts of the globe she never gave the impression she was ready to abandon herself to anything resembling relaxed frivolity or other conventional "holiday-making" (she was consequently usually dispatched to report back from destinations with obvious cultural and artistic links).
		Her unflurried, concerned tone of voice enables the viewer to concentrate upon the intellectual questions being raised during discussions of such emotional topics as providing funds for the treatment of terminally ill children--questions that in less practiced hands could otherwise all too easily be swamped by gushing sentimentality.

		Now ensconced in Primrose Hill, Joan was born in Stockport in 1933 and went to Newnham College Cambridge before embarking on a distinguished broadcasting career.
		Joan hit the headlines recently with her series Taboo in which an erect human penis (albeit heavily pixilated) was shown on terrestrial TV for the first time.
		Of Primrose Hill, where she has lived for 39 years, Joan told the Standard: "I remember when it was very down market - old prams in the street and the steam from the trains at Euston making the curtains rot.

	Camden New Journal - Books: The View From Here - Life at 70 by Joan Bakewell
		But the “thinking man’s crumpet” as Joan was called 40 years ago has always intimidated me. Then, every evening on BBC2 she sat swinging her perfectly cut brown hair and infinitely long legs, and gazed at her guests on Late Night Line-up with huge, melting brown eyes.
		This is not a guide book, Joan says she doesn’t intend it to be one, “it is not a how-to book of advice and homely wisdom.” But it is a compendium of observations that many of us in what she calls the foothills of old age have reflected upon.
		Joan is as indignant as I am that that older mothers get criticized, but older fathers are admired.

		It was this sociological aspect that Ms Bakewell chose to talk about, rather than the more salacious aspects of her life such as her affair with Harold Pinter.
		It is the BBC which Bakewell focuses on, throwing herself open to any questions as she is no longer answerable to the corporation.
		While she is wary of the phrase "dumbing down" in relation to the BBC she is vitriolic about the damaging nature of the Hutton saga: "it is complicated and it is disastrous".
