Ceramics A Fragile History

Ceramics are one of the oldest and most-fundamental art forms around. Ceramics are used for everything from eating and drinking to celebrating birth, marriage or even death. Many people believe that ceramics contain social DNA and reveal about the taste and habits of a nation. This three-part series explores the history of the art form in Britain, beginning in Tudor times, and traces the evolution of different techniques and styles used in the art of pottery. The programme also explores key figures who helped put British ceramics on the map and revolutionised the industry.

Collaborate

"Collaborate" tells the story of Palestinian collaborators with the State of Israel who were exposed, ostracized by their people, and are now trying to find their way back to their homes, their people, and their identity: Bahaa, a informant who is released from Palestinian prison and flees to Israel in order to build a home for his new family; Abed, a senior source in the Shin Bet who, after many years living in Israel, is searching for a way back to the Palestinian village he left as a child; and Younes, a land collaborator on his deathbed, trying to create a new future for his family. The personal story is intertwined with the national story, in which the land brokers function as instruments of war in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This story is told in the voices of senior security officials.
