===Film and TV=== In 1978/1979 the town, the pub The Sloop Inn and Barnoon Cemetery were filmed and appeared in Jerry Jameson's film ''[[Raise the Titanic (film)|Raise the Titanic]]'' released in 1980.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.fast-rewind.com/locations_raisetitanic.htm|title=Raise the Titanic Movie Filming Locations β The 80s Movies Rewind|website=Fast-rewind.com|access-date=26 March 2018}}</ref> The final scenes with [[Alec Guinness]] were meant to have occurred in a local church but a unusually strong storm a few days earlier had damaged the building rendering it unsuitable for filming. In 1989, a public television crew from Alaska shot scenes for a docudrama about American artist Sydney Mortimer Laurence (1865-1940), who was a member of the St. Ives Arts Club in the late 19th century. Several St. Ives residents, in period costumes, appeared as extras in the production. "Laurence of Alaska," which won two regional Emmy Awards, was produced by KAKM, Alaska Public Television, and later aired on public stations across the U.S.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Woodward |first1=Kesler |title=Sydney Laurence: Painter of the North |date=1990 |publisher=University of Washington Press |isbn=0-295-96953-9}}</ref> The [[Discovery Travel and Living]] programme ''Beach CafΓ©'', featuring Australian chef Michael Smith, was filmed in St Ives.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2006/apr/08/travelfoodanddrink.foodanddrink.unitedkingdom|title=Beach on a plate|last=McOwan|first=Gavin|date=8 April 2006|newspaper=[[The Guardian]]|access-date=30 August 2009|location=London}}</ref>
