By night, with big blow-dried hair and head-to-toe in shimmering Lycra, she steps into the ring as Viper, one of the UK's hottest female wresters. The contrast is not lost on her and in Fight Like A Girl, the first in a new run of BBC One's Our Lives strand, Kimberly explains what it’s like to lead her double life. She reveals everything from how she copes with her rigorous training regime, to how she deals with homesickness as the sport she loves takes her all over the world. Wrestling promoter Mark Dallas reckons she has it all. He says: “She’s relatable, she’s likeable, she’s a positive role model. She’s got that It-Factor that you can’t teach.” A schedule of up to four fights per week all over the UK can take its toll on Kimberly of Ayrshire, Scotland. She feels the strain even more when she sets off for Japan to take part in a coveted double world title bout. “Being in the spotlight is the loneliest place in the world.” She says. “It’s hard to build relationships with people when you don’t know which side of the world you’ll be on. You belong to everybody and nobody when you do this.” But she also loves what she does. She adds: "Travelling the world and living your dream - you can't beat that." Having attracted a massive social media following, Kimberly is mobbed by fans of the cult sport when she’s out and about in Tokyo. But the glamorous side of being at the top of her game couldn't be further from her mind when nerves set in as she prepares to battle it out for the double-title belt. Fight Like A Girl is a Raise The Roof production for the BBC.

Theresa’s horrified to learn Kim has sent Molly’s blood off for testing. Determined to intercept the results, Theresa rushes to the surgery but is thwarted by Kim who is shocked to discover Molly has excessive levels of sleeping pills in her system. Kim confronts Theresa who lies that Molly took them accidentally. Kim gives Theresa the benefit of the doubt but her suspicions are raised again later when she finds something alarming in Molly’s tea. With Kim about to expose the ugly truth, Theresa takes drastic action to silence her once and for all. Elsewhere, Bob hatches an elaborate plan with Angus and Lou to pop the question to Kim while Pete and Caitlin celebrate the anniversary of their first date.

The hour-long film features a year in the life of an extraordinary village of Newton Dee, in Aberdeenshire. The residents of Newton Dee are a mixture of people with learning disabilities and the people who care for them. Everyone lives communally and works together in the farms, gardens, bakery and workshops here. Resident Ali says: “It is really wonderful how this community has really brought us together. And we all look out and support each other.” The village is part of the Camphill movement which has taken off internationally after being developed in Scotland in the wake of the Second World War by Austrian paediatrician Dr Karl Konig who fled Vienna when his country was annexed by the Nazis. From its beginnings in Aberdeenshire, within sight of the current Newton Dee village, it has now grown to include more than 100 communities across the world. A warm, funny, life affirming programme, made by Hopscotch Films, Village of Dreams features the gamut of life in Newton Dee from spring lambs to a rabbit called Steph, a talent show and tales of killer seagulls.

Award winning author Darren 'Loki’ McGarvey reveals the History of Scottish hip hop and how over the last 30 or so years it has spawned a revolutionary street-level culture in cities and towns across the country.
  • Deliberative Audience Research for the Public Interest Test Into the Proposed Introduction of a New BBC Scotland TV Channel

    Deliberative Audience Research for the Public Interest Test Into the Proposed Introduction of a New BBC Scotland TV Channel

    Deliberative audience research for the Public Interest Test into the proposed introduction of a new BBC Scotland TV channel Report of findings from PAPA July 2017 Objectives, Sample & Methodology 2 Context & Objectives 1. The BBC has announced plans to launch a new channel in Scotland - running 7pm – midnight everyday 2. As part of the new regulatory structure of the BBC, this launch is subject to a Public Interest Test (PIT), overseen by the BBC Executive Board, and an Ofcom Competition Assessment 3. To meet the criteria set out in the PIT, the BBC Board must be satisfied that the new initiative supports the BBC’s restated mission; that it promotes its public purposes; that the BBC has taken reasonable steps to ensure that the change has no impact on fair and effective competition; and that the public value of the initiative justifies any impact on the competition 4. To measure the public value of the initiative a process is necessary which includes a measurement of the potential personal and citizen value which audiences in Scotland could gain from the launch of the new initiative 5. In late May 2017, PAPA conducted a deliberative qualitative study to provide indicative measures and insights of how the audience may value the proposal 6. A sample of the Scottish public, reflective of adults in Scotland, was presented with the proposal in order to: - Understand and explore the personal value they evaluate in the proposal - Understand and explore the citizen value they evaluate in the proposal - Identify other insights into competition, fulfilment of the Public Purposes or wider impacts the proposal might have on the BBC and the broader broadcasting environment 3 Overview of Methodology • A deliberative approach was used for this research in order to uncover the informed, considered views of a wide range of members of the public.
  • Service Review

    Service Review

    Delivering Quality First in Scotland DELIVERING QUALITY FIRST IN SCOTLAND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The BBC is the most trusted broadcaster in Scotland and a core part of the life of the nation. It unites the audience in enjoyment of the most popular TV, radio and online services, while also championing the diversity of the interests, cultures and languages of this nation of islands and regions. It is valued for upholding the highest standards of quality. The BBC’s commitment to Scotland is to offer a range and depth of programming which is both widely relevant and uniquely distinctive. As the only broadcaster which has invested in covering the whole country across all platforms, it is well-placed to do this. The BBC’s ambition in Scotland is to serve as a national forum, connecting the people of Scotland to each other, to the wider UK and to the rest of the world. As a public service broadcaster which has secure funding and global reach, the BBC is well-placed to achieve this. The BBC provides value to audiences in Scotland in two main ways: through programmes and services which are made in and for Scotland specifically; and through programmes and services which are broadcast across the whole UK. In Scotland, the audience rates the BBC as the leading provider of both Scottish news and non-news programming. Reporting Scotland has the highest reach of any news bulletin; TV opt-out programming1 reaches 44% of the audience every week and is highly appreciated; BBC Radio Scotland is second in popularity only to BBC Radio Two; BBC Scotland’s online portfolio has 3.7m weekly UK unique browsers2; and BBC ALBA attracts half a million English-speaking viewers to its Gaelic TV channel every week.
