The Man Who Loved Dolphins by COLIN SHAW
Read by John Kidd
A new series in which Charles Thompson investigates the reasons why we are so concerned about the image we project and what other people think of us. During the next six weeks. the programme will cover everything from pop to politics, from soap powders to superstars - comparing the techniques used by the image makers in Britain and America. 1: That's Entertainment
The first of the series examines the basic reasons for forming an image, and gets behind the grease paint to examine the world of showbusiness. Who makes the superstars of today? Who protects their public images? How fragile are those images? And what is the reality behind the glamour of working on television, in the recording studios or on the stage?
