Your Noon Briefing: Edinburgh TV Festival, religious TV programming, etc
THE Edinburgh International Television Festival is to award its first-ever Lifetime Achievement award – at this year's event, in August.
And, say the organisers, the inaugural recipient is to be Beryl Vertue OBE.
This year will be the 40th anniversary of the festival and in their commendation, the organisers note: "Beryl has worked with everyone from Galton and Simpson and The Goons, to Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, and founded Hartswood Films which has been responsible for producing a raft of hits from Men Behaving Badly to Sherlock.
"She has also recently produced, with Serena Cullen, the forthcoming adaptation of Lady Chatterley's Lover, written and directed by Jed Mercurio. Festival delegates will be able to hear about her experiences and thoughts on the future for independent production companies in the accompanying Lifetime Achievement Keynote address."
PS The festival is still accepting nominations to its TV Awards – here.
A PLAN for a Scotland-based online TV channel with a left-wing agenda is seeking support – via crowdfunding.
If successful in raising a target £11,000, Stephen Paton's 'Left:Scotland' will, he says, "be an online channel covering left-wing and radical politics in Scotland".
He adds: "It will include at least one regular weekly show that is a continuation of my previous work, plus it'll also become a resource for activists, creating content in collaboration with other groups across the country."

A SENIOR campaign manager is being sought by the Cabinet Office, to be based in Edinburgh.

Plus its dedicated twitter feed, allmediajobs.
BEGINS the Dundee-based newspapers, comics and magazines publisher, DC Thomson: "DC Thomson comic, The Beano, has launched an epic new 3D multiplayer action game, Dennis and Gnasher Blast in Beanotown.
"The game is created in association with Frima Studios (co-creators of The Beano's Minecraft mod) and is free to download for iPad on the App Store."
BEGINS an announcement from Glasgow digital creative agency, MadeBrave: "MadeBrave® is celebrating a successful third birthday by moving office to The Albus building in Glasgow's Bridgeton.
"The award-winning design agency, run by Andrew Dobbie, has announced a turnover of £647,000, up £227,000 on last year, with a projection for their fourth year of £1.2m."
BEGINS The Herald's TV critic, Mark Smith, today: "Over the next few days, television will do its duty and broadcast its annual tranche of religious programming to mark Easter weekend.
"But what's surprising this year, considering how reluctant television has sometimes been to cover religious subjects, is how good some of the programmes are."
ALSO in The Herald, deputy business editor, Greig Cameron begins: "STV chief executive, Rob Woodward, has sold £383,000 of shares in the broadcaster.
"A stock market notification said Mr Woodward sold 100,000 shares at a price of 383 pence each on Tuesday."
FASCINATING read from The Guardian's media pundit, Roy Greenslade, who begins: "Before we were able to count the clicks, in the days of ink on paper, editors tended to operate on hunches. Who were their readers? Who might be lured into becoming a reader? Why did anyone buy their newspaper anyway?
"Market research was usually rejected on the grounds that it was either too expensive (for publishers) or too unlikely to produce 'sensible; results (the ones editors favoured).
"Even when it was employed, the results tended to be open to wide interpretation, allowing editors to divine strategies based on what they intuited the research was telling them. Back to instinct again and a range of implausible theories about how to attract readers."
COUPLE of media-related media releases posted this morning on the site: From the Gloag Foundation – a documentary narrated by actress, Meryl Streep (read more, here); from Stripe Communications, its winning of a Scottish whisky digital and PR brief (read more, here).
