Huw Wheldon
|
|
(1916–86, kt 1976) Welsh television producer, presenter and executive who had a major influence on the development in Britain of arts programmes and documentaries. His single greatest contribution was *Monitor, much enlivened by his own expansive and often partisan enthusiasms. He also had executive control over increasingly large sections of BBC TV between 1962 and 1975. His subsequent freelance career included a series on the royal palaces and collections (Royal Heritage 1977).
