  • Media Nations 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

Overview 1 2. Background 7 3. The changing TV production landscape 14 4. Appraisal of the current regime and the Guidance 29 5. Review proposals 46 Annex A1. Responding to this consultation 65 A2. Ofcom’s consultation principles 68 A3. Consultation coversheet 69 A4. Consultation questions 70 Review of Regional TV Production and Programming Guidance 1. Overview Ofcom is reviewing the Regional Production and Programming Guidance (‘the Guidance’) 1 and associated reporting and compliance regime to ensure that the regulatory framework is effective in a rapidly evolving production landscape. Nations and regions’ production is a crucial part of the UK television production sector, accounting for almost half of public service broadcaster (‘PSB’) qualifying programme hours2 in 2017. TV production outside of London helps to disperse and stimulate investment and job opportunities in the sector, throughout the UK. This has resulted in the employment of a broad range of talent with a diversity of editorial perspectives, to create a wide variety of programmes for the enjoyment of UK viewers. This can also assist in strengthening regional production centres for the long term and supporting broader creative and cultural economies across the UK. To help promote nations and regions’ TV production, Ofcom has imposed quotas on the PSBs3 to ensure that a suitable proportion of their network programmes are made in the UK outside of the M25 (‘regional productions’). The BBC and Channel 3 services also have quotas to broadcast localised programmes, including regional news, across different areas of the UK (‘regional programming’), and a suitable proportion of these should be made in the local area.

Questions 1-72 Witnesses I: Steve Carson, Director, BBC Scotland, Gary Smith, Head of News and Current Affairs, BBC Scotland, and Louise Thornton, Head of Multiplatform Commissioning, BBC Scotland. Examination of witnesses Witnesses: Steve Carson, Gary Smith and Louise Thornton. Q1 Chair: Welcome to the Scottish Affairs Committee for this one-off session with BBC Scotland, in which we will explore some of the pressing issues which are engaging us just now. Before we get started with the questions, I will let our colleagues introduce themselves. Mr Carson, please tell us anything by way of a short introductory statement, and please introduce your colleagues while you’re there. Steve Carson: Good morning Chair and members of the Committee. BBC Scotland last appeared at the Scottish Affairs Committee in December 2018, a few months before the launch of our BBC Scotland channel. Since then, I am delighted to say that that service has become the most- watched digital channel in Scotland, with a higher reach and higher share than some long-established household names. Over the past year and a half, the landscape has been dominated by covid and, like all other industries in Scotland, public broadcasting has adapted and changed its speed to meet the needs of our audiences during this time.
