BBC declines to buy Adams Chronicles from WNET
BBC cites budget crisis and import limits for American TV as reasons for not purchasing the Adams Chronicles. WNET producer Robert Kotlowitz says no BBC option existed and stresses economics and union/import issues as the main obstacles. The series had a $6.7 million budget and aired with international sales already lined up in several countries.
