This working paper explores the significance of the work of the assistant head of BBC Television Talks and Features, Grace Wyndham Goldie, in the development of current affairs and documentary television which took place at the BBC in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Wyndham Goldie was central to these processes. She was passionately committed to the creation of a ‘neutral’ current affairs television, built upon the veracity of the live image. This same passion was not evident in her attitude to the production of documentary television, and she disdained the carefully crafted process of documentary filmmaking. Notably, while Wyndham Goldie was one of a very few women to reach the top of the BBC management ladder, she offered limited encouragement and support to other women working at the corporation.

BBC 的 Grace Wyndham Goldie：重新评价“电视第一夫人”

本工作文件探讨了 BBC 电视谈话和专题片的助理负责人 Grace Wyndham Goldie 的工作在 1950 年代末和 1960 年代初在 BBC 发生的时事和纪录片电视发展中的重要性。Wyndham Goldie 是这些过程的核心。她热情地致力于创建一个“中立的”时事电视，建立在现场图像的真实性之上。同样的热情在她对纪录片电视制作的态度中并不明显，她鄙视精心制作的纪录片制作过程。值得注意的是，虽然温德姆戈尔迪是为数不多的登上 BBC 管理阶梯顶端的女性之一，但她对在该公司工作的其他女性提供的鼓励和支持有限。
