Since our launch in 1981, there has been proliferation of platforms, channels and catch-up services. In recent years, more people have started to watch television and video content distributed through the internet. Project Dovetail is at the heart of our development strategy. Its premise is that BARB’s services need to harness the strengths of two complementary data sources. - BARB’s panel of 5,100 homes provides representative viewing information that delivers programme reach, demographic viewing profiles and measurement of viewers per screen. - Device-based data from web servers provides granular evidence of how online TV is being watched. The TV Player Report is the first stage of Project Dovetail. It is a beta report that is based on the first outputs from BARB working with UK television broadcasters to generate data about all content delivered through the internet. This on-going development delivers a census- level dataset that details how different devices are being used to view online TV. Stage 2 of Project Dovetail will integrate this dataset with the outputs that our customers are used to receiving from BARB. We are in the final stages of tendering the contract for this stage. More news will follow on how we will deliver this. Click here to watch a short video that brings Project Dovetail to life. Alternatively, contact [email protected] with any questions. Page 1 Terminology BARB’s customers are used to working with data that represents the viewing habits of people. The TV Player Report focuses instead on devices. The core metric for determining the popularity of a programme is Average Programme Streams, which represents the average number of devices that played the programme across its duration. It is analogous to the average audience measure that our customers often use to report programme audiences. Each of these metrics conveys the popularity of a programme, although Average Programme Streams is a measure of device usage rather than a measure of how many people are viewing. We also use the following terminology in the TV Player Report. - Total Viewing Time: the total number of minutes that devices have received content (this enables a headline comparison of the volume of delivery through each TV player). - Android: viewing to content that is made available through TV player apps that can be downloaded on tablets and smartphones running the Android operating system. - Apple iOS: viewing to content that is made available through TV player apps that can be downloaded on Apple tablets, smartphones and other handheld devices. - Website player: viewing to content that is made available by broadcasters through their own website (accessible through browsers on multiple devices and operating systems). Page 2 Generating online viewing data UK television broadcasters are implementing software measurement code within their TV player apps. This software code has been developed by Kantar Media and generates analytic tags each time a device requests content from a TV player. This allows BARB to record the total number of times content is watched and how long each viewing session is. The TV Player Report only includes data for platforms that have successfully completed a number of steps that are necessary for them to be live and reporting. The table below shows current implementation status by TV player. An explanatory note details whether the reported data includes on-demand and/or live streaming for TV players that are live. The differences in capturing on-demand viewing and live streaming are explained on page 4. More detail on the different implementation phases can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions.

Each of these requires distinct coding and auditing, which is why some TV players report both types of content, while others are currently only reporting one. The intention is to report both forms of content across all TV players in due course. TV players serve on-demand content in such a way that content IDs can be applied to individual programmes. This allows precise reporting of Average Programme Streams. The process of identifying viewing to live channel streams is different. - The software measurement code deployed by BARB can establish when a TV player is being used to watch a live channel stream. It also identifies which channel is being watched live. - To establish which programmes were streamed live requires a process that matches the timestamp of the viewing session with the programme logs for the channel that was tuned to. This is equivalent to a process that BARB has used for many years to attribute our panel members’ viewing to the right programme. BARB is developing the solution to report Average Programme Streams for content that is watched live. We will report the level of live streaming to individual programmes once this is in place. Live streaming is included on page 5 within the viewing time for the TV player that is used by the viewer.

  • “Revenge in Shakespeare's Plays”
    “REVENGE IN SHAKESPEARE’S PLAYS” “MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING” – LECTURE/CLASS WRITTEN: In the second half of 1598 or 99 -- no later because the role of Dogberry was sometimes replaced by the name of “Will Kemp”, the actor who always played the role; Kemp left the Lord Chamberlain’s Men in 1599. AGE: 34-35 Years Old (B.1564-D.1616) CHRONO: Seventh in the line of Comedies after “The Two Gentlemen of Verona”, “The Comedy of Errors”, “Taming of the Shrew”, “Love’s Labours Lost”, “A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream”, “The Merchant of Venice”. QUARTO: A Quarto edition of the play appeared in 1600. GENRE: “Tragicomic” SOURCE: “Completely and entirely unhistorical” VERSION: The play is “Shakespeare’s earliest version of the more serious story of the man who mistakenly believes his partner has been unfaithful to him”. (“Othello” for one.) SUCCESS: There are no records of early performances but there are “allusions to its success.” HIGHLIGHT: The comedy was revived in 1613 for a Court performance at Whitehall before King James, his daughter Princess Elizabeth and her new husband in May 1613. AFTER: Oddly, the play was “performed only sporadically until David Garrick’s acclaimed revival in 1748”. CRITICS: 1891 – A.B. Walkley: “a composite picture of the multifarious, seething, fermenting life, the polychromatic phantasmagoria of the Renaissance.” 1905 – George Bernard Shaw: “a hopeless story, pleasing only to lovers of the illustrated police papers BENEDICTS: Anthony Quayle, John Gielgud, Michael Redgrave, Donald Sinden BEATRICES: Peggy Ashcroft, Margaret Leighton, Judi Dench, Maggie Smith RECENT: There was “a boost in recent fortunes with the well-received 1993 film version directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Branagh and Emma Thompson.” SETTING: Messina in northeastern Sicily at the narrow strait separating Sicily from Italy.

  • POST-BRITISH CRIME FILMS and the ETHICS of RETRIBUTIVE VIOLENCE Mark Schmitt (TU Dortmund University)
    CINEMA 11 152 “THEY’RE BAD PEOPLE – THEY SHOULD SUFFER”: POST-BRITISH CRIME FILMS AND THE ETHICS OF RETRIBUTIVE VIOLENCE Mark Schmitt (TU Dortmund University) In recent years, British popular genre cinema has displayed a tendency to allegorise the ethical ques- tions resulting from the nation’s social and political challenges of the 21st century.1 Whether it is the Blair government’s decision to join the US in the Iraq war in 2003 and the ensuing disillusionment with democracy and the futility of public protest, the austerity measures and subsequently increasing social divisions in the wake of the global financial crisis of 2008, the ongoing process of Scottish and Welsh devolution that challenges the very notion of a United Kingdom, Britain finds itself in a stage that Michael Gardiner has described as “post-British.”2 On the level of the nation-state, and especially with regard to Scottish and Welsh devolution, the post-British process can be identified as the “demo- cratic restructuring of each nation within union and each nation still affected by Anglophone imperial- ism”3, while the social structure of Britain is still marked by the internal fault lines of class divisions of class. The notion of “post-Britain” has been addressed in British film studies. William Brown has sug- gested that Britain’s cinematic output in the 21st century offers a “paradoxically post-British” perspec- tive which is reflected in subject matter, ideological points of view and modes of production.4 As Brown argues, such post-British perspectives can particularly be found in popular genre films such as 28 Days Later (2002) and V for Vendetta (2006).5 In the following, I will argue that this post-British sensibility in contemporary national genre cinema is aligned with urgent ethical questions regarding the nation state on both the British level as well as within a larger European context.
