I was looking after my fouryear-old 

granddaughter, Stella, 

one day last year, and after 

watching some television - 

Knowledge Kids, naturally - she 

asked me to set her up on my 

computer. She was interested 

in a particular game site where 

she could point and click on a 

set of clothes and play dress up. 

Today, at five years of age, 

Stella zips around the web 

on her own - watching Swan 

Lake and Nutcracker videos on 

YouTube, and playing all sorts 

of games. She’s even recorded 

herself eating (and wearing) 

chocolate cupcake icing and 

singing a sugar-fuelled song. 

Her mom, Kiki, uploaded it to 

Facebook so family and friends 

could share the experience. 

When we launched our 

children’s website this past 

winter, I asked Stella to test our 

newly commissioned games 

that feature the Knowledge 

Kids characters Chip, Inkie 

and Luna. Her response was 

positive, but she complained 

that one of our point and 

click games called “Decorate 

the Dam” was too fast and 

Thank You 

frustrating. (The game was 

eventually slowed down.) 

All this to say how much 

children’s television has fundamentally 

changed since my 

own days of sitting passively 

in front of a neighbour’s TV set 

watching The Lone Ranger and 

Roy Rogers. Today, children 

are bombarded by content and 

many different ways of consuming 

and interacting with media. 

What hasn’t changed is the 

need for parents and caregivers 

to be involved in young children’s 

viewing choices. As options 

expand beyond television 

to computers, mobile phones 

and now tablets, it becomes 

increasingly important for young 

children’s viewing to be supervised. 

Realistically, though, that’s 

not always possible. That’s why 

families depend on Knowledge 

Kids to serve as a trusted source 

of quality content: offering 

programs, games and activities 

that promote literacy and 

learning, that pass on positive 

social values such as caring and 

sharing, and that are free from 

the influence of commercial 

advertising. 

Knowledge Kids is a place 

where kids can explore the 

world in a safe and positive 

environment. As Stella’s 

grandfather, that gives me 

great comfort.

Great Stories are Meant to Be Shared 

With summer here, it’s a great time to catch up on some reading. 

Not just the bestsellers stacked up on your own wish list, but 

books you’ve been longing to share with the kids: old favourites 

from your childhood, or new treasures you’ve come to love. 

One way to foster interest in reading – particularly if a little 

encouragement is needed – is through books with familiar 

characters, like the favourite friends on Knowledge Kids. After all, 

whether in print or on the screen, imaginative storylines, engaging 

characters and delightful visuals are the hallmarks of great stories 

for kids. 

Many of our shows are based on much-loved children’s books, 

among them classics such as Arthur and The Berenstain Bears, 

and newcomers like Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs. 

We’ve selected these shows for Knowledge Kids because their 

creators have shown the same loving attention to detail and quality 

as the original authors, and because they spark young viewers’ 

imaginations and expose them to new ideas. 

Coming this September to Knowledge Kids are two new 

animated series based on books. Anyone who’s been in charge 

of bedtime stories will know the heartwarming bestseller Guess 

How Much I Love You. This beautiful story – about a bunny and his 

father expressing their love for each other – takes on new life as 

time passes and the seasons change in the meadow. Poppy Cat, the 

main character in a British book series, is about a little cat with a big 

imagination who gets into all sorts of adventures with her friends. 

And later this year, look for The Little Prince, based on the 

classic novel about a little prince who leaves his home planet to 

see what the rest of the universe is like. 

Look out for some great reading recommendations for preschoolers on KnowledgeKids.ca in the activities section. 


What the Stars are Reading… 

The stars, of course, 

are our hosts on 

Knowledge Kids: 

Luna the owl, Chip 

the beaver and Inkie 

the octopus. And 

they love books! Just 

don’t tell Chip where 

paper comes from… 

Luna: 

Martha Speaks 

Susan Meddaugh’s books, and 

the TV series based on them, 

star an otherwise ordinary dog 

– Martha – whose fondness 

for alphabet soup gives her the 

ability to speak. A talking dog is 

funny enough, but the wordplay 

also gets kids (and owls) hooting 

with laughter. Besides, Luna 

loves learning new things, so it’s 

no wonder she feels a certain 

kinship with Martha. Watch 

it weekdays at 5:30pm and 

weekends at 10:30am. 

Chip: 

George Shrinks 

Industrious beaver Chip likes to 

see what new gadgets the pintsized 

George and his inventor 

father come up. Now he’s reading 

the original picture book 

by Canadian author William 

Joyce. Beautifully illustrated, 

it tells the story of a boy who 

wakes up to discover he has 

shrunk to the size of a mouse, 

and the adventures that follow. 

Watch it weekdays at 9:30am 

and 4:30pm and weekends at 

7:30am. 

Inkie: 

Charlie and Lola 

Just like Inkie, Charlie’s little 

sister Lola is outgoing and funny 

and full of surprises. Her antics 

– like refusing to go to bed on 

time and taking over Charlie’s 

birthday party – are rendered 

ever-so-charming by author 

Lauren Child’s funky artwork. 

As a bonus, there are enough 

books about the irresistible 

siblings to keep Inkie reading all 

summer long. Watch it weekdays 

at 2:30pm.

What do I want to express? 

The subject means little. The 

arrangement, the design, colour, 

shape, depth, light, space, mood, 

movement, balance, not one or all of 

these fills the bill. There is something 

additional, a breath that draws your 

breath into its breathing, a heartbeat 

that pounds on yours, a recognition of 

the oneness of all things. 

Emily Carr 


Masters 

Emily Carr: Winds of Heaven 

Monday, August 1 at 9pm 

Repeats at midnight 

Michael Ostroff’s acclaimed film is an impressionistic exploration 

of the spirit that informed the solitary life of one 

of BC’s – and Canada’s – most celebrated and irrepressible 

painters. Emily Carr began painting in an era when women 

didn’t, traveling to remote locations that few professional 

adventurers chose to go. Not only did she adopt the 

painting techniques of modernism, when such ideas were 

considered dangerous, Carr chronicled the extraordinary 

art and culture of native peoples, who were invisible to 

the dominant culture. Working from first-hand accounts, 

letters, diaries and her published writings, the film dispels 

the myth of “Emily the eccentric” to present a portrait of a 

living, breathing, tough, vulnerable, smart and ultimately 

sympathetic Carr. 

“Ambitious, impressionistic, and endowed with a stunning 

wealth of archival imagery, Winds of Heaven stands as the 

definitive, critical film portrait of Emily Carr.” 

The Georgia Straight 

Celebrate British Columbia 

BC Day gives us a chance to celebrate what makes our province great. So along with a biography of iconic artist Emily Carr, we’re bringing 

you encore presentations of three Knowledge-commissioned films about the art and history of BC. 

The Edge of the World: BC’s Early Years 

Monday, August 1 at 7pm and 10pm 

Vancouver filmmaker Erik Paulsson uses early photographs and nearly forgotten stories in his look at 

British Columbia’s history – from its beginnings until the turn of the 20th century. 

12 Takes 

Monday, August 1 at 11pm 

John Bolton and six other BC filmmakers give their own unique takes on a dozen BC artists, among them 

author/artist Nick Bantock, pop artist Douglas Coupland and spoken word artist Shane Koyczan. 

A Window Looking In 

Monday, August 1 at 11:30pm 

Tara Hungerford and Eric Hogan peer into the inner worlds of 12 BC-based artists, including writer 

William Gibson, photographer Fred Herzog and singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan. 


ART 

vs 

The Rape of Europa 

Tuesdays at 8pm, beginning July 26 

Repeats Thursdays at midnight 

Based on Lynn H. Nicholas’ groundbreaking book, The Rape of Europa tells the 

epic story of the systematic theft, deliberate destruction and miraculous survival of 

Europe’s art treasures during Hitler’s Third Reich. Today, more than sixty years later, 

the legacy of this tragic history continues to play out as families and nations fight 

over the fate of ill-gotten spoils of war. Narrated by actress Joan Allen, this two-part 

series is a fascinating chronicle of the battle over the very survival of centuries of 

western culture. 

Captain James Rorimer supervises the safeguarding 

of art stolen from French Jews and 

stored during the war at Schloss Neuschwanstein 

in southern Bavaria. 

Page 9, top: Adolf Hitler presents Hermann 

Goering with The Falconer, a painting by the 

19 th -century Austrian painter Hans Makart. 

Stolen Treasure 

According to US estimates, the Nazis stole one-fifth of the known artworks in Europe, 

among them Gustav Klimt’s sensuous gold-flecked Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I 

(detail from painting, above). Bloch-Bauer was a wealthy Viennese society woman 

and hostess of a popular salon. The painting was commissioned by her husband, a 

wealthy Jewish sugar magnate, and took Klimt three years to complete. It was seized 

by the Nazis in 1938 along with much of the contents of the Bloch-Bauers’ home. 

After years of legal battles, the painting was finally returned to her great-niece, Maria 

Altmann, in 2006. She subsequently sold it to cosmetics heir Ronald Lauder for a 

record $135 million. It is now displayed in Lauder’s Neue Galerie in New York City. 


MONSTERS 

The history of looting is 

not just about objects. 

It is a story full of personal 

tragedy and loss, 

of bittersweet recovery 

of the fragments of 

vanished cultures and 

lives. 

Lynn H. Nicholas 

Author of The Rape of Europa 

Stephen Fry 

on Wagner 

Tuesday, August 9 at 8pm 


Stephen Fry, one of Britain’s 

best-loved performers, explores 

his passion for composer 

Richard Wagner. Can Stephen, 

who is Jewish, salvage the 

music he loves from its associations 

with anti-Semitism and 

Hitler? His journey takes him 

to Germany, Switzerland and 

Russia as he pieces together 

the story of the composer’s 

turbulent career. 

Mendelssohn, the 

Nazis and Me 

Tuesday, August 16 at 8pm 


Felix Mendelssohn was a passionate 

Christian. He was also 

born a Jew. This film by his 

descendant, Sheila Hayman, 

tells the extraordinary story of 

what happened, generations 

later, to Mendelssohn’s family 

and his music, when the Nazis 

remembered the Jewish roots 

of Germany’s most celebrated 

composer. 

Cinema’s Exiles: 

From Hitler to 

Hollywood 

Tuesdays at 8pm, beginning 

August 23 


When Hitler banned Jews from 

working in Germany’s film 

industry, men and women who 

had created landmarks of movie 

history fled to Hollywood. 

This two part-series traces 

the experiences of the exiles, 

and examines their impact on 

American cinema. 


Route 66 Music Festival 

Thursdays at 9pm 

The Night James Brown Saved Boston 

Thursday, July 7 at 9pm 

Repeats Sunday at 11pm 

On April 5, 1968 – one night after the assassination of Martin Luther King 

– James Brown was scheduled to perform in downtown Boston. Riots were 

sweeping across America and, in Boston, tensions were high. But nothing was 

going to stop the Godfather of Soul. This brilliant film recounts how Brown 

staved off a riot with the performance of his life. 

I only got seventhgrade 

education, but 

I have a doctorate in 

funk, and I like to put 

that to good use. 

James Brown 

Mother of Rock 

Thursday, July 21 at 9pm 


Acclaimed rock journalist Lillian 

Roxon was the queen of the 

New York rock scene in the late 

1960s. Dubbed the “mother of 

rock”, she was entrenched in 

a circle of artistic and music 

greats, including Andy Warhol, 

Lou Reed, Jim Morrison and 

David Bowie. The energy, irreverence 

and idealism of the 

times are captured in this profile 

of her life and work. 

Van Dyke Parks: An 

Obsession with Music 

Thursday, August 4 at 9pm 


Van Dyke Parks’ musical career 

ignited when he collaborated 

with Beach Boy Brian Wilson on 

the album Smile. Since then, the 

legendary musician, arranger, 

lyricist, record producer and 

film score composer has worked 

with numerous artists, including 

Ry Cooder and Randy Newman. 

We meet up with Parks in his 

LA home and studio. 

Anita O’Day: The Life 

of a Jazz Singer 

Thursday, August 11 at 9pm 


Anita O’Day was one of the 

greatest of American jazz 

singers – a musical genius and 

pioneer who broke reverse 

race barriers. This exuberant 

Grammy-nominated film is 

her story—one of survival and 

above all the endurance of her 

talent, told through candid 

interviews with the feisty songstress 

and those who knew her.

Gareth Malone Goes to Glyndebourne 

Thursdays at 8pm, beginning July 14 

Repeats Saturdays at 5pm 

Gareth Malone, star of The Choir, takes on one of his biggest 

challenges yet – to incorporate a youth chorus into a new opera 

being staged at the prestigious Glyndebourne Opera House. 

In this three-part series, choirmaster Gareth joins the creative and production 

teams at Glyndebourne to help put on Knight Crew, a modern retelling 

of the King Arthur legend. Gareth’s role is to incorporate a large-scale 

chorus into the opera, recruiting young people from the local community. 

A talent search across East Sussex’s schools, colleges and youth groups 

brings in a host of teen hopefuls, most with no experience beyond the odd 

school show. As opening night draws nearer, will Gareth be able to transform 

his chorus into opera singers in time? 

Opera Appeal 

What better way to get young people interested in opera than to give 

them a story they can relate to? Knight Crew, based on a novel of the same 

name by Nicky Singer, contains themes that resonate with teens: gang culture, 

social exclusion, young love, and the ‘Holy Grail’ of something beyond 

oneself. It also places a group of young people at the core of its story – the 

Knight Crew chorus, onstage throughout. 

JULY/AUG 2011 P RO G R A M G U I D E 1 1

NEW SEASON 

Born and Bred 

Sundays at 8pm, beginning August 14 

Just what the doctor ordered…a heartwarming dose of cozy British 

cheer! Born and Bred, a nostalgic family drama set in the 1950s in the 

picture-perfect village of Ormston, is back with new episodes, and 

changes are afoot for the quirky villagers. With the cottage hospital 

now fully established, local doctor Arthur Gilder is beginning to think 

seriously about retirement. Meanwhile, there’s an engagement to 

celebrate and trouble for pub landlady, Phyllis, when her ex-husband 

walks back into her life. Turmoil aside, the show is a good-humoured, 

gentle tonic – best taken with a spot of tea and biscuits. 

A Likeable Lad 

Actor James Bolam, who plays Dr. Arthur Gilder in Born and Bred, is a familiar face on 

Knowledge. He stars as retired detective Jack Halford in the hit series New Tricks (Fridays 

at 8pm and 9pm), was “Grandpa” in the kids’ series Grandpa in My Pocket, and had the 

lead role in the popular miniseries, The Missing Postman. 

Bolam first made his name on British television in the 1960s, when he played loveable 

rogue Terry Collier in the sitcom The Likely Lads, about two best mates from northeast England. 

It was a massive hit, watched by half the population of Britain at the time. A second 

series and feature film followed in the 1970s, but Bolam and his co-star Rodney Bewes had 

a falling out and haven’t spoken to each other since. The rift allegedly came about when 

Bewes revealed, in an interview, Bolam’s shocked reaction when he found out his wife was 

pregnant. 

A multitude of TV roles followed for Bolam, among them Only When I Laugh, When 

the Boat Comes In, and The Beiderbecke Trilogy. He also played notorious serial killer Harold 

Shipman in the drama Shipman. 

Bolam is known for being guarded about his privacy, reflecting on this in a rare interview 

with The Independent: “One should be judged not by what one is, but by what one 

does,” he mused. “Also, the media encourage the notion that you are like your parts. Does 

that mean that you can’t play Macbeth unless you go out and murder someone, or that you 

can only play Hamlet if you don’t like your mother? It’s just acting.”

Route 66 – Anita O’Day: 

The Life of a Jazz Singer 



See Sunday at 8pm 

All That Jazz 

Feisty and flamboyant, jazz 

singer Anita O’Day could 

swing with the best onstage, 

belting out bebop rhythms 

with passion and precision. 

Offstage, she survived 20 

years of addiction, four failed 

marriages and time in jail, as 

chronicled in the documentary 

Anita O’Day: The Life of a Jazz 

Singer (Thursday at 9pm). But 

the film is more a portrait of 

an artist and her genius than 

a salacious biography of drug 

and alcohol addiction. “As 

filmmakers we aspired to show 

someone who, despite the life 

that she led, lived through her 

artistry,” says co-director Ian 

McCrudden. “And that was 

the first and most lasting thing 

that she left behind.”

German-born composer Franz 

Waxman created the scores for

Rear Window, Sunset Boulevard 

and Philadelphia Story. Waxman

people who fled Germany 

after Hitler banned Jews from 

working in its movie industry, a 

story chronicled in the two-part 

series Cinema’s Exiles: From 

Hitler to Hollywood (Tuesday

Thomas with the idea for the

his forbearer, and to the other 

exiles who helped make American

Thank You 


Every time I sit down to Knowledge Network I’m so glad we found each other! Through the winter I’ve been 

entranced as I watch Billy Connolly travel through the Northwest Passage and the lovely piece on Russia. 

Every week is a new and exciting adventure. Elizabeth, 100 Mile House What would we do without you? 

Too many programs that we enjoy to list – what a lifesaver you are. Anne, Courtenay Thank you again 

for introducing thought-provoking documentaries and programs that feed my mind and soul! Richard, 

Victoria I appreciate the quality of the programming, which has only seemed to improve year by year. 

Thank you for the programs and even all those intriguing little fillers, with their local and Canadian 

content. Elaine, Vancouver I’m so glad to finally be able to join the Knowledge family. To have a worldclass 

television station right here in BC is such a privilege. Thank you so much for bringing us wonderful 

programs that teach us, instead of commercial television that seems bent on demoralizing the public 

– catering to the worst in us instead of the best. Thank you for always having something wonderful on 

around dinner time for families to watch together and for the intelligent shows we can always count on 

for evening viewing. Diane, Vernon I want to tell you what a marvelous collection of programming you 

have put together. I am most impressed with its variety and high caliber and am looking forward to being 

educated and entertained. Rosemary, Delta Thank you for another year of excellence in programming. 

I enjoyed too many programs to list… Kimberley, West Vancouver In the evenings I decide which station 

to tune into and that is most of the time your network. As a senior it is great to keep using your brain with 

good programs and to stay alert about many things in this world. Beatrix, Vancouver Concerts? Yes! 

Opera? Yes! Thank you so much for keeping us intelligently entertained! Duanne, Maple Ridge We 

still watch your station far more than any other. Why? Because you have the programs we enjoy such as 

Heartbeat, Doc Martin, Midsomer Murders, Poirot…Thanks for being there for us. Susan, Kelowna 

Both my mom and I love your programming. Thanks so much for bringing something great and unique to 

our television. Heather, Prince George I can’t believe how often it happens that I refer to something 

I’ve watched during a program broadcast on Knowledge. Friends will say, “Where was that program playing?” 

And over and over again I hear myself saying “I saw it on Knowledge.” Sharon, Vancouver To me, 

Knowledge Network is worth more than a weekly trip to the movies, with programs on many subjects and 

all in the comfort of my own armchair. My very best wishes to you for continuing success. June, Penticton 

My thanks to you for bringing such wonders into my living room. Bertl, Pitt Meadows Thank you for 

keeping us so well entertained throughout the years. Gordon, Kelowna Rare is the day that I don’t 

find some amazing documentary on Knowledge Network… That we have access to these magnificent 

programs showcasing the amazingly beautiful world in which we live is something to be treasured and 

preserved. Ida, Kamloops
