DIRECTING
Patrick Douglas Selmes Jackson (26 March 1916 – 3 June 2011) was an English film and television director.
Born in Eltham, to a formerly affluent family which was severely affected by the Wall Street Crash in 1929, and his father's long-term illness and early death ending Jackson's formal education.
He joined the GPO Film Unit on his 17th birthday as a messenger boy after his mother persuaded her MP, Sir Kingsley Wood, then also postmaster general, to find work for her son.
