3 Variety is the spice of life

4 Why Filming ? Fees Visitors Economic generation

5 Sense and Sensibility

6 BBC drama using Ham House. As a London location difficult to calculate the reason for the visit. Ham also appeared in other TV and films so hard to say which show provoked the visit.

7 Sense and Sensibility This BBC drama was shot at Ham in 2007 and was shown on BBC1 from the 1st January 2008 for 3 weeks. The exterior of the house was visible. A link was placed from the Sense and Sensibility microsite on the BBC website to Ham’s page on the National Trust website. Visitor figures in January, February and March of 2008 were 107% higher than those of the same months in 2007.

23 RISKS!

24 RISKS Conservation issues. Time scale - Yesterday and tomorrow. Staffing and costs. Credits. Blink and you will miss us - the jigsaw effect. Surviving the edit.

25 Do we want to do this? Closing down – Can we do that ? Reputation - fly on the wall or spy on the wall? Image - crime, security, satire and good taste. H & S - regulation - kids, guns, animals and nudity.

43 Simple stuff

44 Don’t underestimate factual TV

45 Don’t underestimate Farne Islands the RDF series be on ITV, the BBC will start running their “Great British Year” series on October 2nd the “Spring” episode features the Farnes heavily. Autumnwatch are also planning to use our puffin burrow cam footage in October and local news almost always feature newborn Farnes seal pups during that month.

46 Big Spring Clean

47 Big spring clean results - 2011 Petworth – 23,000 extra visitors £85k in extra revenue

48 Public reaction This series could be seen as straightforward propaganda for the National Trust, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching it, and now have a far better understanding of what they do behind the scenes with our national treasures. It also helped me to understand the organisation's motives a little better (they aim for honest 'conservation', rather than artificial 'restoration'). It also gave an opportunity for the back-room workers, who spend hours labouring away to preserve our heritage, a chance to shine in the spotlight for a little while. 8/10
