| ‘The Art of the Record’
I am sorry to be informed that in a book which I understand is called ‘The Art of Record’ by John Corner, you publish the erroneous and very damaging claim that changes were made between the first and second transmissions of ‘Cathy Come Home’ because of the alleged doubts about its accuracy. |

Cathy's Not Come Home
Twenty five years ago the film of Jeremy Sandford's screenplay 'Cathy Come Home' pricked the conscience of the Nation. | |

|
Dear Professor Corner
Cathy Come Home I was pleased by the amount of space you devoted to this film, for which as you know I did the research and wrote the screenplay, in your recent book ‘The Art of Record’. However, I much regret having to say that allegations made in para.4 on page 106 are inaccurate | |

Dear Ken
Cathy Did you get a letter recently from me asking whether you were happy with the BBC's proposal that money for the screenplay should be split 1/3 to you and 2/3 to me? |

PART IV
Travellers in Houses
Gypsies and Travellers in houses: it is impossible to form an accurate picture of their numbers. In 1972 it was believed that there is a Traveller in a house for every one in a caravan or tent. | |
| |
|
PART V
Living in Horse-Drawn Caravans
Travellers are proud of their culture and their traditions and wherever they live, whether in trailers or houses, their walls will usually be hung with pictures of horses and old fashioned caravans. | |

| Introduction - The images of Irish Travellers that Mathias Oppersdorff had brought back across the Atlantic to his darkroom seemed to him powerful and important. Something told him that a record should be kept of the lives of these proud Travelling Tinker people, their horses and their homes in tents and wagons. | |

In Search of a
Herefordshire Childhood
PART I
I’m returning to the North Herefordshire meadows, lakes and streams, humble cottages and noble though decaying mansions and castles amidst which I grew up. My home was Eye Manor, a William and Mary historic place, and I’m now returning to talk to traditional farmers and other Herefordshire people as well as those more privileged country gentry, and reviving my memories of the poetry, folklore and country ways of fifty years ago. | |

| Jeremy Sandford’s father first saw Herefordshire from the window of a horse drawn Gypsy wagon. It was driven by Mary, his mother, the wife of an Irish landowner. Christopher Sandford fell in love with the county and so it was that, having acquired the famous Golden Cockerel Press, he moved to Eye, a William and Mary manor house four miles to the north of Leominster. Jeremy spent his youth here, riding far and wide throughout the county with his father on a chestnut hunter called Doctor Syntax and Jeremy on a Dartmoor pony called Jet. He was conventionally educated | |

Michelle’s Story
Film Treatment; Eleventh Draft (JS) “Michelle’s Story” is a modern story based on fact. A powerful tale told with humour and pathos, portraying in depth the complex reality of one girl’s life, and what happened when bad times hit her. Like “Raging Bull”, “Christiana F” and “Goodfellas”, “Michelle’s Story” uses documentary techniques to create a realistic modern urban landscape and to show the complex internal life of characters developing, reacting, and struggling within that landscape. | |
