Juliet Bravo - Concept

Concept

The series was devised by Ian Kennedy Martin, who had already enjoyed success with another police drama series, The Sweeney. The genre of police/crime dramas was well established on British television by 1980; however the BBC's Juliet Bravo, along with London Weekend Television's The Gentle Touch which started a few months earlier, dealt with female officers as lead characters having to fight both crime and the prejudice of male colleagues.

Famous quotes containing the word concept:

    The concept of a mental state is primarily the concept of a state of the person apt for bringing about a certain sort of behaviour.
    David Malet Armstrong (b. 1926)

    The nearer a conception comes towards finality, the nearer does the dynamic relation, out of which this concept has arisen, draw to a close. To know is to lose.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The latest creed that has to be believed
    And entered in our childish catechism
    Is that the All’s a concept self-conceived,
    Which is no more than good old Pantheism.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
