anna span prog on c5 tomorrow night

[woodgnome]

anna span, britain's first female porn director, has a one hour documentary about her airing on channel 5 tomorrow night (friday, 1st oct 11:05pm). anna tells us that it's full of juicy bits!

c5 website blurb: "Documentary examining women's changing attitude towards pornography. British women are expressing their sexuality with a new and sometimes brash self-confidence. The programme follows Britain's leading female pornographer, Anna Span, as she films hardcore porn with young men and women new to the business."

Channel 5 documentry is called 'Sex Films for Girls'

I think she's pretty cool. I don't usually like these sleezy documentaries but it was interesting to hear her viewpoint - a lot of which I found refreshing and in line with my own point of view.

Anna certainly knows her stuff it seems, but was it just me or was this programme a repeat?? It said Channel 5, 2003 ? some of it seemed very familiar.
Interesting to see that Anna wants to perform in front of the camera as well though, that would certainly be a winner with me.

[Pianaman]

That would be good

- pity Anna doesn't post here - I'd love to have a discussion with her.

she is actually registered and has posted here in the past. i think she's forgotten, though...

from a punter's point-of-view, i've always found anna to be a refreshing presence, not because of her gender - although that is relevant - but more her willingness (and ableness) to be an enlightened spokeswoman for the role of women within the industry as a whole. to that end, it was interesting to see the positive effect that working with anna had on newcummer tammie lee.

of course, this is just the sort of "wimmin's" nonsense that peeves the more dinosaurian element within the biz who think a woman's proper place is in front of the camera, not behind it - but frankly, who cares?

[Pianaman]

I certainly don't - it's good to rattle a few cages - come back Anna!!

[whatever]

She may be in her early-mid 30s but Anna Span in front of the cameras would be way more appealing than most current Brit porn. That genuinely confident experienced middle class professional youngish woman in hard core porn would almost certainly be a massive seller so long as she only did one film. The TV show was probably delayed as I'd've probably noticed if it had been shown already.

it's mcporn syndrome: simplify, standardise, commodify, er, stultify...
