  • Service Review
    Delivering Quality First in Northern Ireland DELIVERING QUALITY FIRST IN NORTHERN IRELAND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The BBC in Northern Ireland aims to bring the highest quality, most distinctive programmes and services to local audiences, reflecting the diversity of its cultures, communities and languages, and informing, educating and entertaining all its citizens. Our ambition is to deliver content driven by the unique needs of our local audiences, fulfilling the BBC’s public purposes within the context of political, economic and social change in Northern Ireland. The capacity to evaluate and reflect a Northern Ireland society during this period of significant transformation is at the heart of our proposition. Northern Ireland-specific output such as BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle is extremely popular and highly distinctive. On television, BBC Newsline and the current affairs programme Spotlight combine with live sports coverage and a wide range of non-news programming such as The Estate, Belfast Blitz and House of the Year to deliver significant value to local audiences. In the first quarter of 2011, ten of BBC One Northern Ireland’s top twenty programmes were locally made Northern Ireland programmes. Within a very competitive television news market, the BBC’s television news specifically for Northern Ireland audiences (BBC Newsline) is highly trusted and valued by our audience. When the BBC’s programmes for Northern Ireland audiences opt into the BBC One and BBC Two network schedules, they consistently add to the overall channel performance. BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle reaches on average almost 38% of the Northern Ireland adult population each week – amongst the highest reach of all of the BBC’s national and local radio services.

  • Radiocentre's Response to the BBC Trust Review of the BBC's National Radio Stations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales
    RadioCentre’s response to the BBC Trust review of the BBC’s national radio stations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales 1. Executive summary 1.1. We welcome the fact that a significant degree of scrutiny is being applied to the BBC Nations services, via the BBC Trust’s ongoing service licence review process. The Nations services were largely overlooked during the 2010 BBC Strategy Review process – we considered this to be unfortunate given the relatively high level of licence fee funding invested in them, their potential market impact, and - most importantly - their disproportionate political and social importance. 1.2. The BBC’s radio services in the Nations – BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle (Northern Ireland), BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio nan Gàidheal (Scotland), BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru (Wales) – should embody the ideals of public service broadcasting: that is, providing distinctive, high quality, informative speech content that adds significant value to the body politic. 1.3. We believe that the BBC’s Nations services do largely fulfil this role. However, aspects of these services fail to meet such high standards, in the following areas: ‐ Music/speech output. The service licences of the English language Nations services state that they should be ‘speech-led’, yet they all broadcast a significant amount of music during daytime. We believe that the service licences of all English language BBC Nations services should be amended, to require them to broadcast 100% speech during daytime. ‐ Audience profile. The English language Nations services currently lack a target age demographic. We believe that all BBC Radio service licences should contain a specific target age range, in order to ensure maximisation of public value and avoid duplication with the commercial sector.

  • BBC Radio Ulster: Public Service Radio in Northern Ireland’S Divided Society
    BBC Radio Ulster: Public Service Radio in Northern Ireland’s divided society Phil Ramsey, Ulster University [email protected] http://ulster.academia.edu/PhilRamsey | http://orcid.org/0000-0001-5873-489X Published as: Ramsey, P. (2016). BBC Radio Ulster: Public Service Radio in Northern Ireland’s divided society. Journal of Radio and Audio Media. 23(1): 144–163. (http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/19376529.2016.1155027) Abstract BBC radio has been broadcast in Northern Ireland since shortly after the establishment of the country in the early 1920s. Throughout this period it has been faced by the challenge of how to deliver public service radio in a divided society, one that has for many years experienced violent conflict. Today as BBC Radio Ulster, the station has the highest audience reach of any BBC network radio service or those nations services in Scotland and Wales. This article outlines how BBC policy serves to deliver this performance, by examining a BBC Trust Service Review in relation to culture and diversity. Keywords: BBC Radio Ulster; BBC Northern Ireland; BBC policy; BBC Trust; BBC nations; Radio; Public service broadcasting; Public Service Media; History of Northern Ireland. BBC Radio Ulster: Public Service Radio in Northern Ireland’s divided society Introduction Writing in 1996, Des Cranston argued “Let there be no ambiguity: it is wireless broadcasting that provides the continuity for the seventy years of the BBC in Northern Ireland” (Cranston, 1996, p.35). Now almost twenty years later, with the BBC having passed its ninetieth anniversary of broadcasting in Northern Ireland (NI), BBC radio broadcasting continues to play an important role within public service broadcasting (PSB) in NI (Moore, 2003).

  • Opinion: the Future of AM Radio England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland
    Frequency Finder (www.frequencyfinder.org.uk) Opinion: The Future of AM Radio England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland Summary AM radio in the British Isles is now in terminal decline and may be discontinued completely during the mid-to-late 2020s. With the BBC subject to budget cuts and commercial stations vulnerable to a potential advertising recession, all broadcasters will be looking to reduce their AM transmission costs. Inevitably, those stations with a relatively small proportion of their listening via AM are likely to close their AM transmitters before those stations with much larger AM audiences. This article explores how this process could be managed smoothly so that AM transmission costs are gradually reduced in proportion to the number of listeners continuing to use AM. For high-power transmitters, substantial cost savings can be made by simply reducing the transmission power; a 50% reduction would have minimal impact on audience size. For low-power transmitters, there are two issues to consider: the audience size for each transmitter and the number of transmitters operating at that site. The more low-power transmitters that share a site, the lower the operating cost per transmitter. Thus, closure decisions should be based on cost per AM listener and coordination between different broadcasters is needed. With 26 major broadcasters’ AM transmitters closed in 2018, 33 closed in 2020 and at least 21 closing during 2021, this process has now begun. Background AM was the dominant listening medium for radio in the British Isles until the mid 1980s, when it was overtaken by FM. In the early 1990s, with improvements in FM coverage and wide access to FM radios, it was decided to mostly abandon simulcasting in the UK and launch new stations on AM.
