 Morrissey-solo | Morrissey nominated for South Bank Show Award
The South Bank Show has been UK TV’s leading arts show for some time; The Smiths were, of course, featured in 1987.
I'm not in the business of knocking award shows that i've never heard of before they nominate Morrissey for something, but all i'll say is that hopefully their trophies aren't made of solid milk chocolate under gold foil.
One word of advice for South Bank: I don't know who you people are, but its cool that you want to honor our man Moz.

Melvyn Bragg, who read modern history at Oxford University and has presented the show since its inception in 1978, denied any allegations of "dumbing down" and compared Lucas and Walliams with the creators of The Goon Show because "they are hitting new heights of comedy".

Written and presented by Howard Goodall for the South Bank Show, produced and directed by Mathew Tucker; Series editor and presenter Melvyn Bragg.
But the problem is that the South Bank Show documentary leaves you thinking that the solution to music education in Britain is a mass cloning programme so that every child can have Howard Goodall as a personal tutor.
He goes on to show that music education in this country is far from being in terminal decline, as some are predicting, but that music in schools is undergoing a revival.

 Barbara Dickson Online - TV Review
Few could have predicted that when - in 1978 - ITV launched a new arts strand entitled 'The South Bank Show', it would become one of the leading arts documentary makers globally.
The show opens with Barbara and her band of that time (Ian Lynn on keyboards, Pete Zorn on sax/guitar, Andy Brown on bass guitar, Bob Jenkins on drums and Richie Brunton also on guitar) performing 'Caravans', a concert favourite for over twenty years now.
It is a great pity that this programme has never been repeated in the UK, as it remains perhaps the definitive example to date of Barbara's enormous talent and its ability to tackle virtually any area of popular music.

We were approached by Isolde Films to participate in a South Bank Show item all about the life and works of Malcolm Arnold.
It had been originally envisaged that this would be part of the opening show in the 2004 series, however Isolde Films and the presenter of the South Bank Show, Melvyn Bragg, have realised that this is turning into a bigger project than anticipated.
So, unless Malcolm Arnold dies suddenly, and he unfortunately is not in the best of health, the item may well snowball into a full feature and will be screened later on in the year.
