SWEET TALK: Dr. Sweet‐tooth

Abstract

Patricia Newman, writer and researcher in the education department of Central television, won £500 in the specialist contribution section of the Van den Berghs & Jurgens Nutrition Reporting Award for her film, Doctor Sweet‐tooth. The message of the film, warning children against the dangers of eating too many sweet foods between meals, is a very forceful one, due partly to the well written and amusing script, and also because all the actors are children. (Not precocious, professional child actors, but unselfconscious children from an ordinary school who were well coached and obviously keen to join in the fun of making this film.)
