The PSB channels (BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Three, BBC Four, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5, BBC News, S4C and BBC Alba) are expected together to fulfil the purposes and characteristics, although it is also acknowledged that each PSB channel has a specific remit. • The PSB tracker asks respondents to rate specific TV channels on each of the PSB purposes and characteristics relevant to that channel. • The PSB purposes and characteristics were put into everyday language for the PSB Tracker survey, which asked respondents to give their opinions on the PSB statements, both in terms of their importance, and their delivery by the PSB channels (see slides below). • Regular viewers of each channel were asked to rate the channel on the statements, using a ten-point scale. Within this report a rating of 7, 8, 9 or 10 has been taken as a positive response, indicating that a viewer sees the channel/channels as delivering against this purpose/characteristic. • The survey reports the opinions of self-defined ‘regular viewers’ of each PSB channel, on the delivery of that channel’s PSB purposes and characteristics.
