  • So What Better Way to Celebrate Than to Catch up with the Lovely Adele, SBC’S Brand Ambassador
    This year SBC are celebrating 11 Years on QVC – so what better way to celebrate than to catch up with the lovely Adele, SBC’s Brand Ambassador. So, come with us, back in time, to dig a little deeper into Adele’s years on QVC! 1. So, Adele, what did you do before you became SBC’s knowledgeable Brand Ambassador? I worked for the NHS, before re-training in 2007 as a Holistic Therapist. I have always been interested in holistic therapy, it is a form of healing that considers the whole person - body, mind, spirit, and emotions - in the quest for optimal health and wellness. I then began working for a Beauty and Wellness Spa based in Bury St. Edmunds, which was an ideal environment to practice my skills as a holistic therapist, whilst learning a lot about skincare. 2. How did you get into presenting? The Spa I worked for was, and still is, under the same parent company as SBC, and I was asked by the CEO if I fancied presenting on QVC for them. Surprised, excited, and terrified, I auditioned and in 2010 I had my first experience on QVC. 3. Do you remember who was presenting your first show? Of course, it was Jilly Halliday, and she was so lovely and really helped with my nerves. It was a great first experience. 4. If you can remember, how did you feel before your very first show? Honestly, I was sick with nerves. Once we got going I realised that all we were doing is chatting about the products.

    The BBC’s distribution arrangements for its UK Public Services A report by Mediatique presented to the BBC Trust Finance Committee November 2013 BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION The BBC’s distribution arrangements for its UK Public Services A report by Mediatique presented to the BBC Trust Finance Committee November 2013 Presented to Parliament by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport by Command of Her Majesty February 2014 © BBC 2013 The text of this document may be reproduced free of charge in any format or medium providing that it is reproduced accurately and not in a misleading context. The material must be acknowledged as BBC copyright and the document title specified. Where third party material has been identified, permission from the respective copyright holder must be sought BBC Trust response to Mediatique’s value for money study: the BBC’s distribution arrangements for its UK Public Services Introduction The BBC exists to educate, inform and entertain through a broad range of high quality programmes and services on TV, Radio and Online. It is also tasked with distributing this content to audiences across the country in ways that are convenient to them. In 2012-13 the cost of these distribution arrangements was £233million or 6.5 percent of the licence fee. The BBC Trust exists to maximise the value audiences receive in return for the licence fee. To help it do this, the Trust commissioned Mediatique to carry out a value for money review of the BBC’s distribution arrangements in the UK. This is one of a number of value for money reports received by the Trust from various organisations, including the NAO, all of which help the Trust to identify ways to improve the way the BBC is run.
