    Young at heart - Mail Online article Young at heart: Average age of BBC Radio 1 listener is STILL 32 despite desperate attempts to shake-up the station and bring in younger listeners • Average age of BBC Radio 1 listener is 32, station boss confirmed • Figure remains the same despite bids to bring in a younger audience - such as giving DJ Nick Grimshaw the coveted Breakfast show slot • YouTube channel was also launched to attract those aged 15-29 • Controller Ben Cooper said today the average ‘kept him up at night’ • Station has 11million listeners, but rival Radio 2 reaches 12.5million a week By Lizzie Edmonds Published: 12:59, 21 February 2014 | Updated: 09:28, 22 February 2014 Radio 1’s average listener age is 32 - despite numerous moves, including giving Nick Grimshaw (pictured) the coveted Breakfast show position, to bring the figure down to match its 15-29 target audience. The average age of a BBC Radio 1 listener has remained stuck at 32 - despite numerous attempts by the station to appeal to a younger audience. Over the past couple of years, Radio 1 has tried numerous tactics to reduce its average listening age to match its 15-29 target audience - including replacing Breakfast show host Chris Moyles with Nick Grimshaw in September 2012. It was hoped the latter would bring in a new, younger audience who were more interested in chart music. Younger presenters such as Greg James and Jameela Jamil were also given high-profile slots over ‘older’ predecessors. Other methods - such as installing cameras in studios so listeners can watch shows, launching a YouTube channel where viewers can watch humorous stunts filmed by presenters, and increased publicity surrounding festivals The Big Weekend and the Ibiza Weekend - were also tried.

  • Yellow Teal Colorful Dots Preschool School Newsletter
    MARCH/APRIL 2021 THE DOWNINGTOWN REPORT AROUND THE WORLD BRITAIN’S NEW METHOD TO COMBAT COVID-19 Boris Johnson has recently announced that the British government will offer every household two Covid tests. They hope that repeated testing on everyone, regardless of their symptoms, will help the country return to normalcy. However, there are still doubts on the effectiveness of self- testing as there is no way to mandate accurate self reporting. In fact, a recent study found that only 42% of symptomatic Britons were following the isolation regulations. There have also been trends of decreasing in testing due to heavy reliance on vaccines. However, most of the population have not been fully vaccinated and it is unknown whether vaccinated citizens can transmit the virus. Though the government is on the right track, there are many unknown variables that could prevent the tests’ effectiveness. SUEZ CANAL This past week, the Suez Canal, one of the most important canals in global trading, was blocked. The Suez Canal, owned by Egypt, is a man-made waterway around Cape of Good Hope in Africa and plays a crucial role in international trade, especially in transporting oil. On March 23rd, a cargo ship, named Ever Green was stuck in the canal, blocking the entire transportation route. Some experts believe that the ship might have been swayed off its course due to the heavy winds and blocked the canal, but others suggest that it could have been a technical or human error. Fortunately, Ever Green was finally freed on March 30th, but this blockage still has detrimental effects on the international supply chain which could take weeks to repair.
