The daily flagship programme Good Morning Scotland, which sets the news agenda of the day, will see long standing anchor Gary Robertson joined by a voice already familiar to Radio Scotland listeners, Laura Maxwell. Hayley Millar, who has presented GMS for several years, will now be joined by another voice familiar to our listeners, Mhairi Stuart, for a brand new daily lunchtime news programme that will focus on events as they are happening both at home and abroad. “Lunchtime Live” will keep the Radio Scotland audience up to date by using the BBC’s extensive network of reporters and correspondents. The current lunchtime host John Beattie will then be giving his very personal take on the news agenda to the drivetime audience for the first time. “Drivetime … with John Beattie” will be an audience focussed, two hour programme,that will take the big talking points of the day and break them down through comment and opinion. "Our three daytime news programme will all have a very distinctive feel and style to them, reporting the news that matters to the Radio Scotland audience in a tone that’s warm and accessible" said Gary Smith, BBC Scotland’s Head of News. “Each of the three pillars of our schedule – breakfast, lunch and drive – will be hosted by presenters with years of journalism experience behind them. These changes ensure that our station remains at the forefront of delivering agenda setting content that showcases radio journalism at its finest.” The schedule changes are likely to begin in the next few months.

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.

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.

  • Deliberative Audience Research for the Public Interest Test Into the Proposed Introduction of a New BBC Scotland TV Channel
    Deliberative audience research for the Public Interest Test into the proposed introduction of a new BBC Scotland TV channel Report of findings from PAPA July 2017 Objectives, Sample & Methodology 2 Context & Objectives 1. The BBC has announced plans to launch a new channel in Scotland - running 7pm – midnight everyday 2. As part of the new regulatory structure of the BBC, this launch is subject to a Public Interest Test (PIT), overseen by the BBC Executive Board, and an Ofcom Competition Assessment 3. To meet the criteria set out in the PIT, the BBC Board must be satisfied that the new initiative supports the BBC’s restated mission; that it promotes its public purposes; that the BBC has taken reasonable steps to ensure that the change has no impact on fair and effective competition; and that the public value of the initiative justifies any impact on the competition 4. To measure the public value of the initiative a process is necessary which includes a measurement of the potential personal and citizen value which audiences in Scotland could gain from the launch of the new initiative 5. In late May 2017, PAPA conducted a deliberative qualitative study to provide indicative measures and insights of how the audience may value the proposal 6. A sample of the Scottish public, reflective of adults in Scotland, was presented with the proposal in order to: - Understand and explore the personal value they evaluate in the proposal - Understand and explore the citizen value they evaluate in the proposal - Identify other insights into competition, fulfilment of the Public Purposes or wider impacts the proposal might have on the BBC and the broader broadcasting environment 3 Overview of Methodology • A deliberative approach was used for this research in order to uncover the informed, considered views of a wide range of members of the public.

  • Service Review
    Delivering Quality First in Scotland DELIVERING QUALITY FIRST IN SCOTLAND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The BBC is the most trusted broadcaster in Scotland and a core part of the life of the nation. It unites the audience in enjoyment of the most popular TV, radio and online services, while also championing the diversity of the interests, cultures and languages of this nation of islands and regions. It is valued for upholding the highest standards of quality. The BBC’s commitment to Scotland is to offer a range and depth of programming which is both widely relevant and uniquely distinctive. As the only broadcaster which has invested in covering the whole country across all platforms, it is well-placed to do this. The BBC’s ambition in Scotland is to serve as a national forum, connecting the people of Scotland to each other, to the wider UK and to the rest of the world. As a public service broadcaster which has secure funding and global reach, the BBC is well-placed to achieve this. The BBC provides value to audiences in Scotland in two main ways: through programmes and services which are made in and for Scotland specifically; and through programmes and services which are broadcast across the whole UK. In Scotland, the audience rates the BBC as the leading provider of both Scottish news and non-news programming. Reporting Scotland has the highest reach of any news bulletin; TV opt-out programming1 reaches 44% of the audience every week and is highly appreciated; BBC Radio Scotland is second in popularity only to BBC Radio Two; BBC Scotland’s online portfolio has 3.7m weekly UK unique browsers2; and BBC ALBA attracts half a million English-speaking viewers to its Gaelic TV channel every week.

  • Final Determination Annex 2: Channel Take-Up and Substitution
    BBC Scotland Competition Assessment Final Determination Annex 2: Channel Take-up and Substitution STATEMENT ANNEX Publication Date: 26 June 2018 BBC Scotland Competition Assessment – Final Determination Annex 2: Channel Take-up and Substitution A2. Channel Take-up and Substitution Introduction A2.1 In order to review the public value and assess the potential impact on fair and effective competition of the BBC’s proposal, we must first consider the audience that the new BBC Scotland channel is likely to attract. This Annex provides our assessment of the likely ’take- up’ of the BBC Scotland channel, i.e. the viewing hours the new channel is likely to attract in Scotland and the viewing share and audience reach it is likely to achieve.1 A2.2 The BBC’s proposal involves associated changes to existing BBC services, in particular BBC Two, BBC Four and CBBC HD in Scotland. We therefore also assess the effect on the viewing of BBC Two, BBC Four and CBBC in Scotland resulting from the BBC’s proposal. A2.3 We then identify the services most likely to be affected by the proposed new channel and the associated changes. We assess the potential audience substitution, including from existing BBC services and commercial services. A2.4 This Annex broadly reflects the assessment of take-up and substitution set out in our Consultation. Where relevant, we have set out the stakeholder views we received in response to our Consultation and how these, along with any further analysis, have influenced our assessment of take-up and substitution. In particular, we set out and respond to stakeholders’ views on: our take-up estimates for the new channel (paragraphs A2.104 to A2.135); and substitution from existing TV channels as a result of the BBC proposal (paragraphs A2.162 to A2.171).
