Wilfred Shingleton (1914–1983) was an English art director. He enjoyed a distinguished career in the British film industry from his debut in 1937. Some of his early assignments were several George Formby vehicles – hugely popular with wartime audiences. His career really kicked off into a higher gear in 1947 when he won the Academy Award for his atmospheric sets for David Lean's ''Great Expectations''. This led to a string of high-profile projects, including ''Anna Karenina'' (1948), ''The African Queen'' (1951) and ''Beat the Devil'' (1953), both for director John Huston, ''Hobson's Choice'' (1954) and ''Tunes of Glory'' (1960). He won a BAFTA for the wartime flying epic ''The Blue Max'' in 1966, after which he moved seamlessly into the world of TV, working on the stylish hit series ''The Avengers''. He received an Emmy nomination for the miniseries ''Holocaust'' in 1978, winning the award two years later for the TV movie ''Gauguin the Savage''. His last film – for which he received a BAFTA nomination – was the Merchant-Ivory film ''Heat and Dust'' in 1983. ==Selected filmography== * ''It's in the Air'' (1938) * ''Trouble Brewing'' (1939) * ''The Four Just Men'' (1939) * ''Great Expectations'' (1946) * ''The African Queen'' (1951) *''Beat the Devil'' (1953) *''Hobson's Choice'' (1954) * ''Carrington V.C.''
