  • Bbc Earth Celebrates 50 Years of Earth Day with a Special Week of Programming
    MEDIA ALERT 2nd April 2020 BBC EARTH CELEBRATES 50 YEARS OF EARTH DAY WITH A SPECIAL WEEK OF PROGRAMMING View Earth Week trailer BBC Earth is celebrating 50 years of Earth Day with Earth Week, a special line-up of programming which looks at the beauty of our planet both up close and from far away and explores our vital role in ensuring its future. Screening each evening at 8.30pm from Monday, April 20, the week kicks off with the premiere of Blue Planet Revisited, exploring the challenges facing the marine eco-system and wildlife in the Great Barrier Reef and the Bahamas. The cameras then move from under the ocean to hundreds of kilometres up in the sky in Earth From Space, capturing natural spectacles on an epic scale and showing viewers the planet’s extraordinary beauty and diversity in astonishing detail. The week will finish with a special Sunday screening of every episode of David Attenborough’s iconic Planet Earth II. Presented by Liz Bonnin, Chris Packham and Steve Backshall, Blue Planet Revisited returns to two key locations featured in Blue Planet II to see how things have changed, talk to the scientists who know our oceans best and give us a snapshot of the health of the ocean. With the breeding season underway, the series focuses on the action following whales and their calves and turtles and their hatchlings together with spectacular footage of shark dives in the Bahamas and the underwater dawn chorus of the Great Barrier Reef, home to 600 different kinds of coral and more than 1500 species of fish.

  • Review of Spectrum Fees for Fixed Links and Satellite Services
    BBC response to Ofcom’s Initial Consultation: Review of spectrum fees for fixed links and satellite services 30 July 2015 BBC response to Ofcom’s Review of spectrum fees for fixed links and satellite services July 2015 2 BBC response to Ofcom’s Review of spectrum fees for fixed links and satellite services July 2015 Overview 1. The BBC welcomes the opportunity to respond to Ofcom’s Initial Consultation: Fees review for fixed link and satellite services published on 21 May 2015. Accordingly, we set out an initial response below along with further detail where most relevant. We look forward to further engagement as Ofcom’s proposals are developed. 2. The BBC is committed to efficient use of spectrum as well as providing value for money for licence fee payers. These responsibilities apply both to programme making and distribution functions which ultimately deliver services enjoyed by 97% of UK adults each week.1 3. The BBC uses fixed and satellite services for programme making and distribution, holding Wireless Telegraphy Act licences as well as contracts with commercial providers of services that use spectrum. 4. Nationally, the BBC’s direct-to-home (DTH) satellite distribution enables the provision of important coverage to populations out of reach of the terrestrial transmitter network. This helps ensure universal coverage so all households, across all parts of the UK, can access BBC services on at least one platform. 5. In addition to uplinks for DTH satellites, fixed and satellite links also comprise a vital part of the BBC’s distribution network providing DTT, DAB and analogue radio signals to transmitters.

  • Wednesday November 9 BBC Worldwide ANZ and Nine Agree Deal for Highly Anticipated Planet Earth Sequel
    Wednesday November 9 BBC Worldwide ANZ and Nine agree deal for highly anticipated Planet Earth sequel BBC Worldwide (ANZ) has announced a deal which will see the sequel to the hugely popular Planet Earth series premiere on Nine in Australia soon. Planet Earth II is the new natural history series narrated by David Attenborough and produced by the BBC’s acclaimed Natural History Unit. Capturing an estimated half a billion people worldwide, the original Planet Earth was the first natural history series to be filmed in high definition. Now ten years on Planet Earth II is the first full series in Ultra Hi-Definition, utilising the latest filming technology to reveal the natural world in entirely new ways. Through methods such as camera-stabilisation as well as remote recording and aerial drone technology, the six-part documentary invites viewers to witness creatures and behaviours so elusive that they were considered almost impossible to capture. The programme premiered on BBC One in the UK on Sunday evening and drew an incredible 9.2 million viewers in overnight figures. It was the UK’s highest rated Natural History title in nearly 15 years. BBC Worldwide ANZ’s Director of Content Sales, Irene Read, says: “This is a spectacular series that has all the wow-factor of the original Planet Earth, with the added benefit of new technology to capture the scale of our planet and get close to its animals in a way that was not possible ten years ago. Nine will be able to offer viewers a real treat with this series.” Hamish Turner, Nine’s Program Director, says: “Ten years after launch, Planet Earth still stands as a landmark natural history series, the first to be filmed in High-Definition.

  • CLIA Highlights Facts About Small Ship Cruising
    Press Release Cruise Industry Reveals Fast Facts about the Small Ship Cruise Experience CLIA Highlights Facts about Small Ship Cruising (Brussels, June 21, 2017) – Interest in small ship cruising, traveling onboard ships with a smaller passenger capacity, is on the rise among travelers. The Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), uncovers some interesting facts about small ship cruising. “The small ship sector is a vital and constantly-evolving part of the overall cruise industry that excels at creating unmatched travel experiences, making it more popular than ever” said Cindy D’Aoust, president and CEO, CLIA. “Small ship cruising allows for a unique and intimate cruise unlike any other.” Five fast facts about small ship cruising: 1.) Small Ships Can Cruise the World: Contrary to popular myth, small ships have the ability to sail to a myriad of destinations around the world, some of which are unattainable by bigger ships. Small ships often cruise along famous and historic rivers, offering a chance for the mode of transportation to become a wonder in itself. To create an even more memorable experience, many small ship cruise lines also offer themed itineraries that focus on different interests like diving or beer tasting. Avalon Waterways’ Danube Dreams for Beer Enthusiasts is a ten day European voyage that sets its sights on beer-lovers with ale-centric activities both onboard and on-land. This small ship cruise allows travelers to visit historic breweries; attend special beer tastings; learn about European beer-brewing techniques during onboard lectures and workshops; and take part in a beer expert-led dining experience.
