The BFI are releasing the 1965-1971 BBC series \u201cOut of the Unknown\u201d on DVD, and I am putting together a little package of commentaries\/documentaries to accompany some of the episodes.<\/p>\n

Here is a list of some staff. I have tried to help by breaking the individuals into lists based on their production roles on \u201cOut of the Unknown\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cAndover and the Android\u201d<\/h2>\n

Toby Hadoke, David Brunt<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Chick Anthony was studio sound supervisor and Clive Thomas was TM2 on \u201cAndover and the Android\u201d.<\/p>\n

Pat Heigham<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I was the Grams Op on \u201cAndover and the Android\u201d and produced some innovative sound effects. We experimented with speaking backwards for a robot voice.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

re<\/i> Speaking Backwards<\/b><\/h3>\n

Mike Cotton<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Dick Graham, an OOV in Pres, could speak backwards – we recorded him and replayed it backwards and the result was (almost) intelligible if you knew what he had said. He was keen on country pursuits such as Doil Flunking and welly throwing. I think he was a relative of Graham Southcot. Memories of Stanley Unwin.<\/p>\n

Len Shorey<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Roger Ordish, an LE Producer, appeared live on a early BBC-1 show and sang backwards. We set up a dummy tape machine on the set and recorded it in the control room. The gram\/op I believe it was Nick Ware, who then turned the spools over and played on cue. To everyone’s astonishment out came the national anthem with lyrics clearly enunciated.<\/p>\n

When interviewed, Roger said he learnt the technique (or art) when working on night duty in Bush House editing tape.<\/p>\n

Bill Jenkin<\/strong><\/h3>\n

He did something similar on another show. I can’t remember the show but it was in the TV Theatre. It was a version of \u00a0Spike Milligan’s “I’m Walking Backwards To Christmas”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
