“masterly documentary strand “
“the BBC produces a string of top notch documentaries”

THE TIMES –Jess Search 03/07/2007
“BBC’s Storyville films, such as Born into brothels and Peace One Day... ...are films that
have catalysed change, altered public opinion or influenced law and policy”

THE GUARDIAN – Zoe Williams 09/03/2007
“Storyville rocks. It should get all the licence-fee money”

THE FINANCIAL TIMES – John Lloyd 21/07/2007
“The series, now 10 years old, is a toehold in the television world against its Beckamisation,
a reminder of how poignant and stimulating narrative that admits complexity can be”.
“Storyville helps deepen our human understanding, rescuing it from the major shallows of
Victoria”.

THE INDEPENDENT – Kim Sengupta 19/03/2007
“Documentary is now a winning genre”
About “Screamers” “It was perhaps not surprising that the film was commissioned by
Storyville, which has built up a reputation for adventurous and innovative programming”
