“The real concern is around insurance,” said one producer.
UK independent film and TV producers are facing uncertainty ahead of the publication of updated Covid safety guidelines by the British Film Commission (Bfc) following the end of all legal Covid regulations in England as of today (February 24).
At the same time, an insurance broker is calling for a three-month extension to the government-backed Production Restart Scheme (Prs) until the end of July.
Screen understands the Bfc, which has worked throughout the pandemic to provide up-to-date guidelines on best on-set practice in line with government adjustments, is reconvening its industry-wide working...

UK producers laud Production Restart Scheme but warn of rising costs and shortage of crew, equipment
”It is not something that is sustainable should this pandemic continue indefinitely.”
A year after the UK government launched the £500m Production Restart Scheme (Prs) for film and TV shoots that would not otherwise have been able to secure insurance for Covid-related costs, producers, financiers and insurance experts confirm it has been an astonishing success.
“If it hadn’t been for the Production Restart Scheme, we would not have been able to make the film,” says producer Elizabeth Karlsen of Number 9 Films of Mothering Sunday which went into production in mid-September last year as one of the first films to use the scheme.

In the wake of the terrible attacks in Paris, I found myself listening to a lot of French music and thinking about the Leonard Bernstein quote going around on Facebook: "This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before." This list came to seem like my natural response. A very small response, I know. This list is chronological and leaves off people I should probably include. The forty [note: now forty-one] composers listed below are merely a start.
Léonin Aka Leoninus (c.1135-c.1201)
