Doc Rowe in the News
Doc Rowe was in the news again on 5 November 2023, with an Observer article about his work: https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2023/nov/05/cheese-rolling-straw-bears-and-weird-rituals-galore-one-mans-mission-to-record-all-of-british-folklore
The article draws attention to the Crowdfunder to fund the digitisation of parts of Doc’s archive of the film and video recordings he has made of seasonal events in Britain over the past 60 years. The crowdfunder was set up by Rob Curry and Tim Peston of Fifth Column Films, who have recently launched the film they made after following Doc around the country as he recorded seasonal events.
