ISBN: 9781138221529 Reviewed by: Les Roberts, University of Liverpool At the end of BBC television’s national news programme, the newsreader signs off, with ritual precision, by handing over to the regional news services with the words ‘…and now the news from where you are’. Where am I, tell me? I’m wont to ask on such occasions, looking to secure some sense of local and regional belonging as mirrored back through my television screen. On then trundles BBC North West Tonight which, between the moments of inane (and no less ritualistic) banter that the presenting team insist on sharing, covers news events in Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cumbria, as well as parts of Derbyshire and Yorkshire. So this is where I am: an imagined community that is magically conjured up by the necessarily loose regional descriptor ‘North West’. Yet, geographically at least, I do not live in the North West, I live just across the English-Welsh border in North Wales, a few miles from the English city of Chester. In a post-analogue television landscape where the direction my television aerial is pointed in no longer so narrowly determines what is beamed into my living room, I could easily opt to change my default regional news setting to BBC Wales Today: another imagined media community in which otherwise quite disparate localities – from my home county of Flintshire in North East Wales all the way down to Cardiff or Swansea in the south west – are corralled into a similar geographic container in which news is transacted ‘where you are’.
  • Written Evidence Submitted by Netflix

    Written Evidence Submitted by Netflix

    Written evidence submitted by Netflix Submission to Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee inquiry The future of Public Service Broadcasting June 2020 Netflix in the UK 1. Netflix is a streaming subscription video on demand (SVoD) service that allows customers to watch a wide variety of TV shows, films, documentaries, and more over the internet and ad-free on any one of thousands of internet-connected devices at a time and place of their choice. We are a global service, offered in 190 countries with close to 180 million subscribers, of whom over 12 million are in the UK. 2. The UK is one of Netflix’s top three locations for production globally, along with the U.S. and Canada. In 2019 we invested over £400m1 here in local content, with over 50 different shows in production including co-productions with the public service broadcasters and in total over £500m in UK production - a third of all our production in Europe. We expect our investment here to continue growing; our long-term commitment to the UK creative community and our intention to increase our investment in production is also reflected in our announcement last year that we are creating a dedicated production hub in the UK, based at Shepperton Studios.2 3. Localised content is increasingly a priority for our business, both in the UK and around the world. Since 2019 we have appointed several UK-based commissioners overseeing scripted and unscripted content, including drama, comedy, factual, and kids and family - all of whom built their careers in the UK film and TV industry, including with the PSBs.
