“Mad and Bad – 60 Years of Science on TV” Uma jornada fascinante pelos 60 anos do jornalismo científico britânico

Posted on 07:43 by Unknown
Um documentário imperdível sobre a odisséia do jornalismo científico televisivo britânico em seis décadas e como logrou atingir sua absoluta posicão de vanguarda na dosagem exata entre informação e entretenimento, estendendo os limites de qualidade do que se pode fazer em TV até onde “nenhum homem jamais esteve” antes. De Raymond Baxter, no “World from Tomorrow”, testando, ao vivo, um novo colete à prova de balas num inventor bastante nervoso, a “Doctor Who” na moderna Guerra contra o Terror, a televisão e o público britânicos têm se fascinado com o admirável mundo novo oferecido pela ciência na TV.
Narrado por Robert Webb, este documentário nos conduz a uma jornada fantástica, incisiva e, muitas vezes, engraçada através da rica herança da TV científica no Reino Unido a partir de programas baseados na ciência real (incluindo os já clássicos “The Sky at Night”, “Horizon”, “The World from Tomorrow”, “The Ascent of Man”), passando pela ficção científica (como “The Quatermass Experiment”, “Doctor Who”, “ Doomwatch”, “Blake’s 7”, “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”), para descobrir o que ela nos diz sobre a Grã-Bretanha, bem como sobre a expansão da imaginação científica pelo mundo nos últimos 60 anos.
Celebridades da comunidade científica e do jornalismo científico, incluindo Sir David Attenborough, Robert Winston, Tim Dr Hunt, Colin Blakemore Professor, Tony Robinson, Patrick Moore and Ball Sir Johnny, tecem comentários sobre como foi crescer com a ciência fundamental e a pesquisa de ponta adaptadas ao formato da TV e como este novo meio tem refletido – ou conduzido – nosso imaginário coletivo sobre seu papel e o lugar social do cientista no mundo contemporâneo.
