It came out in 1948. People called it ‘the grandaddy of reality
TV’ because it influenced so many other shows. The programme
makers hid cameras and played jokes on members of the public.

2 Soon after this, talent shows became popular. The first was
Ted Mack and the Original Amateur Hour. It invited people
onto the show. They weren’t professionals. They sang, danced
or told jokes. It was a success and soon there were more talent
shows competing for an audience.

In 1954 a US television channel broadcast the first Miss
America competition. The winner became a national celebrity
and everyone understood that appearing on television was
a great way to become famous.

c
Seven up! was a British programme. It came out in 1964.
It was part reality show, part documentary. The programme
makers chose a group of twelve seven-year-olds. They asked
the children questions and filmed them doing everyday things.
Every seven years they went to visit the same people and
reported on the changes in their lives.

Amir Kumar is a Bollywood actor and dancer who travels around,
bringing the best of Bollywood dance and music to theatres
and festivals across Europe. We met him in Barcelona and asked

◆ Bollywoodfilmsareusuallylovestories,

When did you start dancing?
Well, I started acting when I was ten years old. I had classes with a famous
Bollywood dancer. When I was seventeen I got my first professional job,
dancing in a film. It was like winning a prize! I was very lucky.
Where did you live in India?
I was born in Mumbai. It had an important film industry and I saw lots of
famous actors and dancers; including Aishwarya Rai – the most beautiful
woman in the world! It was an exciting experience for a young boy.
How many films did you make in Mumbai?
Oh, a lot! I participated in more than forty films! I acted and danced
in about twenty films and then I discovered that I was a good
choreographer so I invented steps for other dancers.
Why did you decide to come to Europe?
A theatre company in Spain invited me to dance at a festival. It was
a wonderful opportunity for me. At first I came for a month but then
I got more offers of work, so I stayed.
Do you miss India?
Sometimes, yes. I miss the food and the music most, but Europe is my
second home now. I am a very lucky man.
