  • BBC Four Programme Information
    SOUND OF CINEMA: THE MUSIC THAT MADE THE MOVIES BBC Four Programme Information Neil Brand presenter and composer said, “It's so fantastic that the BBC, the biggest producer of music content, is showing how music works for films this autumn with Sound of Cinema. Film scores demand an extraordinary degree of both musicianship and dramatic understanding on the part of their composers. Whilst creating potent, original music to synchronise exactly with the images, composers are also making that music as discreet, accessible and communicative as possible, so that it can speak to each and every one of us. Film music demands the highest standards of its composers, the insight to 'see' what is needed and come up with something new and original. With my series and the other content across the BBC’s Sound of Cinema season I hope that people will hear more in their movies than they ever thought possible.” Part 1: The Big Score In the first episode of a new series celebrating film music for BBC Four as part of a wider Sound of Cinema Season on the BBC, Neil Brand explores how the classic orchestral film score emerged and why it’s still going strong today. Neil begins by analysing John Barry's title music for the 1965 thriller The Ipcress File. Demonstrating how Barry incorporated the sounds of east European instruments and even a coffee grinder to capture a down at heel Cold War feel, Neil highlights how a great composer can add a whole new dimension to film. Music has been inextricably linked with cinema even since the days of the "silent era", when movie houses employed accompanists ranging from pianists to small orchestras.

  • Managing the Effects of 700Mhz Clearance on PMSE and DTT Viewers”
    YouView British Telecommunications TalkTalk Group Ofcom call for inputs: “Managing the effects of 700MHz clearance on PMSE and DTT viewers” YouView, BT and TalkTalk are aligned in the responses to this call for input. Minimising disruption to existing DTT consumption, and avoiding a sense of panic at the potential loss of DTT channels – and therefore DTT platform churn - through clear communication and structured consumer support is vital in making the 700MHz clearance a success for DTT consumers. We feel a well-funded information and financial support scheme for 700MHz clearance could minimise platform churn, and ensure homes continue to benefit from free to air DTT reception. Managing expectations in a clear, concise and repeatable manner; supporting consumers end to end, financial support, and minimising disruption should be the goals of the clearance programme. We regard clearance and coexistence as different phases of the same 700MHz programme. We recommend a coordinated approach across the two phases to ensure the both are handled in the same open, informative manner with visible trials and rollout plans, allowing proactive consumer support preparation and seamless communication. 1 YouView British Telecommunications TalkTalk Group Question 1: Do you agree with our assessment of the number of viewers that will need to retune? We believe the assessment is closer to 20 million within the 14-20 million range given: a) The number of DTT television sets and set-to-boxes in each UK home serving as primary, secondary, or even tertiary units.
