January 2016 Monthly Performance Pack Monthly Performance Pack January 2016 Mimmi Andersson, BBC iPlayer BBC Communications 07725641207 | [email protected] Monthly summary – January 2016 • BBC iPlayer and BBC iPlayer Radio had 315 million TV and radio request in January, an increase of 2% month on month. Overall increases were seen across all devices, most notably on mobile devices. • The increases across devices were mostly driven by radio requests, which increased by 15% in January compared to December, as people returned to their regular routines after the Christmas break. • One-off episode Sherlock The Abominable Bride was by far the most popular TV title in January, delivering over 2.3 million requests. Other New Years Day episodes proved particularly popular, with EastEnders and Billionaire Boy both also available on BBC iPlayer from that day. • BBC iPlayer’s exclusive comedy-drama film The Rack Pack made it into the top 20 most requested titles in January, in its first two weeks of availability. It continues to perform strongly with close to 1 million requests in total, making it the most successful BBC iPlayer Original to date • Radio comedy I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue and The News Quiz were the top performing episodes in BBC iPlayer Radio in January. Poirot, Test Match Cricket and regular series The Archers also did well. Consistent with previous months: • The profile of BBC iPlayer users has evened out over time in terms of male/female ratio, but remains strongly under- 55 in terms of age, which is younger than the typical TV viewer or radio listener’s profile (although more in line with home broadband users). • BBC iPlayer is used for TV at roughly the same time of day as linear TV viewing, although there is proportionally more daytime and late-peak use. BBC iPlayer Radio is used far more in daytime than traditional radio listening, which peaks at breakfast-time.

Photo: Steve Tanner WELCOME 2016 – a momentous year – in which the world celebrated the richness of Shakespeare’s legacy 400 years after his death. Shakespeare’s Globe is proud to have played a part in those celebrations in 197 countries and led the festivities in London, where Shakespeare wrote and worked. Our Globe to Globe Hamlet tour travelled 193,000 miles before coming home for a final emotional performance in the Globe to mark the end, not just of this phenomenal worldwide journey, but the artistic handover from Dominic Dromgoole to Emma Rice. A memorable season of late Shakespeare plays in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and two outstanding Globe transfers in the West End ran concurrently with the last leg of the Globe to Globe Hamlet tour. On Shakespeare’s birthday, 23 April, we welcomed President Obama to the Globe. Actors performed scenes from the late plays running in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Southwark Cathedral, a service which was the only major civic event to mark the anniversary in London and was attended by our Patron, HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.

Cabin Pressure is set in the wing and a prayer world of a tiny, one-plane charter airline, staffed by two pilots—one on his way down, and one who was never up to start with. Whether flying a cat to Abu Dhabi, dealing with a nervous bassoonist, hunting for a cleverly-hidden Cabin Pressure: A- Z: The BBC Radio 4 Airline Sitcom, or attempting to celebrate Christmas in seven minutes, no job is too small, but many, many jobs are too difficult.

    CINEMA 11 152 “THEY’RE BAD PEOPLE – THEY SHOULD SUFFER”: POST-BRITISH CRIME FILMS AND THE ETHICS OF RETRIBUTIVE VIOLENCE Mark Schmitt (TU Dortmund University) In recent years, British popular genre cinema has displayed a tendency to allegorise the ethical ques- tions resulting from the nation’s social and political challenges of the 21st century.1 Whether it is the Blair government’s decision to join the US in the Iraq war in 2003 and the ensuing disillusionment with democracy and the futility of public protest, the austerity measures and subsequently increasing social divisions in the wake of the global financial crisis of 2008, the ongoing process of Scottish and Welsh devolution that challenges the very notion of a United Kingdom, Britain finds itself in a stage that Michael Gardiner has described as “post-British.”2 On the level of the nation-state, and especially with regard to Scottish and Welsh devolution, the post-British process can be identified as the “demo- cratic restructuring of each nation within union and each nation still affected by Anglophone imperial- ism”3, while the social structure of Britain is still marked by the internal fault lines of class divisions of class. The notion of “post-Britain” has been addressed in British film studies. William Brown has sug- gested that Britain’s cinematic output in the 21st century offers a “paradoxically post-British” perspec- tive which is reflected in subject matter, ideological points of view and modes of production.4 As Brown argues, such post-British perspectives can particularly be found in popular genre films such as 28 Days Later (2002) and V for Vendetta (2006).5 In the following, I will argue that this post-British sensibility in contemporary national genre cinema is aligned with urgent ethical questions regarding the nation state on both the British level as well as within a larger European context.
