Scope and Contents

A file containing two programme production agreements between the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and Spitting Image Productions Limited, regarding two special Arena events on BBC 2. On 16 December 1989, the documentary programme, Arena, took over the channel for the evening to broadcast various short films and talks relating to animals, known as Animal Night. On 15 December 1990, the programme did the same with short films and talks relating to food, known as Food Night. In both cases, SIPL were commissioned to produce short puppet comedy segments that linked these different shows together.

These ring-bound agreements are dated 1991. The agreement for Food Night is accompanied by a letter from the BBC, stating it is a 'fully executed programme production agreement.'
