Time Shift : Oliver Postgate


Tonight, documentary series Time Shift aired their programme dedicated to Oliver Postgate who died last year. I would recommend this to anyone but in particular people interested in moving image and narrative. I'd quite happily argue the case for Postgate and Firmin being the best British moving image story tellers of the 20th century. Click the picture to watch.
