  • BBC Press & Publicity
    British Broadcasting Corporation BBC Worldwide Press Office Level 5, 6 Eden Park Drive, Macquarie Park NSW 2113 Monday March 26, 2012 UKTV ANNOUNCES A WEALTH OF AUSTRALIAN PREMIERES FOR 2012 GOING FOR GOLD, WE’LL TAKE MANHATTAN, ONE NIGHT, INSIDE MEN, FALCÓN AND NEVER MIND THE BUZZCOCKS Australia’s UKTV today announces brand new premium drama and entertainment content for 2012 including Going for Gold, We’ll Take Manhattan, One Night, Inside Men, Falcón and the ultimate irreverent music quiz show Never Mind the Buzzcocks which has never before screened in Australia. Starring Doctor Who’s Matt Smith, Going for Gold (1 x 90) is the powerful and uplifting story of how two men from very different backgrounds triumphed against the odds, capturing Olympic Gold in the double sculling and embodying the battling spirit of the 1948 London games. This is the first of three dramas with a London theme. Set over one hot summer’s night when nerves are frayed and tensions ride high, One Night (4 x 50) follows four very ordinary, but very different people whose fates become intertwined by a seemingly trivial event…with far reaching consequences. It’s winter 1962, and the cockney photographer David Bailey and unknown model Jean Shrimpton (played by Doctor Who’s side kick Karen Gillan) are sent to New York for a prestigious Vogue photo shoot. The 90 minute drama, We’ll Take Manhattan tells the story of a wild week, their love affair, terrible fights with their fashion editor – and how two young people with no such intention happened to change the world of fashion forever.

  • Archived BBC Public Responses to Complaints 2020 BBC News, Royal
    Archived BBC public responses to complaints 2020 BBC News, Royal Family coverage, January 2020 Summary of complaint We were contacted by viewers who were unhappy with the level of coverage given to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's announcement that they will be 'stepping back' as senior royals. Our response In our editorial judgement, the announcement that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex planned to quit their frontline roles was a major news story of great constitutional significance as well as widespread public interest. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have a very high profile at home and abroad and their decision affects the entire Royal Family, as well as raising questions about the levels of public support they enjoy and their charitable roles too. We appreciate viewers may not agree with how this story was covered, but we also made space for other major stories, including developments in Iran and Australia, both of which we have given extensive airtime. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BBC World Service, Sinhala, January 2020 Summary of complaint We received a number of complaints about BBC Sinhala correspondent, Azzam Ameen, with concerns over his conduct during the Sri-Lankan presidential election. Our response Editorial impartiality is the foundation of the BBC’s global reputation as a trusted news source and this is something which cannot be compromised. The BBC has taken appropriate action as a result of this serious breach of its Editorial Guidelines. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question Time, BBC One, 16 January 2020 Summary of complaint We were contacted by viewers who were unhappy with the audience makeup of the programme.
