BBC Shop: The Jonathan Meades Collection (DVD)
dvd | Travel |
 £15.99
We make places. And places make us. We respond to what we have created. But how does this compact between mankind and its greatest artifices work?Jonathan Meades addressed this in a multitude of ways: visually, comically, rhetorically, obliquely, argumentatively and whilst swimming fully clothed. And also passionately. For these programmes are the expression of an obsessional preoccupation with places and with the properties they reflect: fantasy and necessity, escape and expectation, individual assertion and collective fear. Collection comprises: Abroad In Britain : In Search of Bohemia Jonathan Meades goes in search of the buildings and possible continued lifestyle and ethos of "Bohemians", looking at some present artists and poets in their studios and habitations, and considering two of the places in Britain called Bohemia, particularly looking at the architecture and character of Bohemia, the suburb of Hastings. Abroad In Britain : Severn Heaven Jonathan Meades looks at the community of people west of the Black Country, who have adapted and modified what were chalet-type wooden huts built in the 30s as holiday housing as homes.Further Abroad : Belgium Magritte was a Social Realist. Jonathan Meades explores Belgium and discovers that surrealism is the norm in coffin shops, finch sport, horse eating, vertical archery, cinema-churches, and the museums of underwear, penguins and ironing. Further Abroad : Get High The perilous attractions of vertigo. Documentary about unusual architecture, focussing on the theme of vertigo, with visits to aqueducts, office blocks, cliff-hanging houses, diving boards and cathedrals. Even Further Abroad : Absentee Landlord Investigates the churches that have been built since the Second World War. Even Further Abroad : Double Dutch Jonathan Meades explores The Fens.Even Further Abroad : Remember The Future When The World Was Modern: Big Tech of the 60s. Investigates technological relics from the 1960's. Meades Eats... Fast Food Meades looks at junk food, convenience food, the popular diet and associated risks. Abroad Again: Father To The Man Meades revisits the places his father took him to as a child in the hope that they may shed some light on the very obsession they fomented. Nostalgic? Certainly. And literally too - in that it evinces a longing for a lost home. Sentimental? Hardly. Magnetic North - episode 1 of 2 Jonathan Meades travels from the flatlands of Flanders to Germany's spectacular Baltic coast in an attempt to decipher exactly what Northernness entails Magnetic North - episode 2 of 2 Jonathan Meades travels through the Baltic states to Finland in an attempt to define Northernness, and sees castles, Lith dancing, totem poles, terrestrial sputniks and crosses.
