Explaining their business strategies any more intricately than, well, extremely broadly is not simple, mainly because they don’t really tell anyone exactly what they’re doing (though a recent leak did shine some light on Amazon’s commissioning process – more of that on TBIVision.com). 4 10 However, my pal’s sentiment about cultural worth got me thinking about how high-end drama and comedy has become the cultural currency of the modern era. Could anyone have guessed that would be the case back in the 80s or 90s, when soaps and cheap procedural dramas were the order of the day? The fact that someone who deals directly with a young, mainstream adult radio and internet video audience – and who is a professional expert in film, by the way – can see and feel the impact of television-style programming, says something about the position the medium is taking in the world of globalised content. Our drama survey, which you can read in the main TBI April/May 2018 issue, shows that those working in the industry see similar trends, and you 1 18 can only surmise that those who finance content are discovering the same things. Similarly, Walter Iuzzolini talks of a new television culture that has allowed his foreign-language service to exist (see page 10). There will be more money flooding into TV as this boom continues to take hold, but how long can it last? Who knows, but feature film was the medium that people looked at the world through for many years. There’s no obvious reason television cannot remain in its current pomp – providing the stories continue to get better and ambitions greater. Netflix and Amazon have indeed been at the forefront of this cultural revolution, and their brassy confidence in their business models (whatever they actually are) gives everyone – even their greatest rivals, I would suggest – faith to keep on with their own original programming agendas. 22 2 Just before we went to press, Netflix created its own branded font. As my radio pal notes, TV has become the cultural currency of today.

No longer a source of unreflective nostalgia for reactionaries, it is now being represented as a more nuanced entity that reflects the complexities of socialist society. The black and white narratives that shaped cultural memory of the GDR during the first fifteen years after the Wende have largely been replaced by more complicated tones of grey.

  • SUBMISSION by CHANNEL 5 BROADCASTING LTD to OFCOM CALL for INPUTS on MANAGING the EFFECTS of 700 Mhz CLEARANCE
    SUBMISSION BY CHANNEL 5 BROADCASTING LTD TO OFCOM CALL FOR INPUTS ON MANAGING THE EFFECTS OF 700 MHz CLEARANCE Channel 5 welcomes the opportunity to respond to this call for inputs. As we are not a multiplex operator we do not have access to technical data that would enable us to answer all of Ofcom’s questions. But we do have strong views on the importance of the DTT platform and how the clearance programme should be managed. We are confident the 700 MHz clearance programme can be sensibly managed, especially in light of the experience gained during digital switchover (DSO) and the 800 MHz clearance programme. In planning the clearance programme, the greatest priority should be maintenance of confidence in the platform for the tens of millions of viewers who depend on it for viewing on both primary and secondary television sets. The DTT platform is of critical importance for public service broadcasting. For example, Channel 5 has eight channels1 broadcasting on DTT; it is the platform on which our channels are watched most and which is of greatest commercial benefit to us. We believe it is important for there to be a coherent and well resourced support and communications plan. Digital UK has proved itself an effective platform management body, as well as having past experience of DSO and 800 MHz clearance, so we would expect it to have the lead role in managing the programme. The programme itself needs to be properly resourced by government; the clearance programme is taking place to facilitate long-term economic benefits that will accrue to the mobile operators and the wider economy, not to DTT viewers, so the costs of it should be met from the public purse.

Teenage maths prodigy Nathan (Asa Butterfield) struggles when it comes to building relationships with other people, not least with his mother, Julie (Sally Hawkins). In a world difficult to comprehend, he finds comfort in numbers. And when Nathan is taken under the wing of unconventional and anarchic teacher, Mr. Humphreys (Rafe Spall), the pair forge an unusual friendship. Eventually, Nathan’s talents win him a place on the UK National team at the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) and the team travel to a training camp in Taiwan, under the supervision of squad leader Richard (Eddie Marsan). In unfamiliar surroundings, Nathan is confronted by a series of unexpected challenges — not least the unfamiliar feelings he begins to experience for his Chinese counterpart, the beautiful Zhang Mei (Jo Yang), feelings that develop when the young mathematicians return to England for the IMO, held at Trinity College, Cambridge. From suburban England to bustling Taipei and back again, this original and heart-warming film tracks the funny and complex relationships that Nathan builds, as he is confronted by the irrational nature of love.

    EMBARGOED UNTIL 7:01PM ET TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 24TH Channel 5, Playground And MASTERPIECE On PBS Announce Cast For All Creatures Great And Small Newcomer Nicholas Ralph to play beloved vet James Herriot opposite Samuel West, Anna Madeley, Callum Woodhouse and Rachel Shenton Channel 5, BAFTA and Golden Globe-winning production company Playground (Howards End, Wolf Hall) and MASTERPIECE on PBS today announced the casting of key roles for their upcoming adaptation of best-selling author James Herriot’s cherished collection of stories, written by Ben Vanstone (The Last Kingdom) and directed by Brian Percival (Downton Abbey). Exciting newcomer Nicholas Ralph will make his television debut as the iconic vet who became renowned for his inspiring compassion, humour and love of life. Samuel West (Mr. Selfridge, On Chesil Beach) joins as Siegfried Farnon, the wonderfully eccentric veteri- nary surgeon and proprietor of Skeldale House who reluctantly hires the recently qualified Herriot into his rural practice. Mrs Hall, the resident housekeeper and matriarch of Skeldale House will be played by Anna Madeley (The Child in Time, Patrick Melrose). Siegfried’s errant and charismatic younger brother, Tristan, will be played by Callum Woodhouse (The Durrells in Corfu). Rachel Shenton (Switched at Birth, White Gold) takes the role of Helen Alderson, an independent local farmer’s daughter who helps her father manage the family farm and care for her younger sister. “This is an exceptional cast made up of a wonderful mix of exciting new and established talent,” says executive producer Colin Callender. “Re-visiting the world of All Creatures Great and Small is like going home and re-discovering old friends whom we haven’t seen in years.
