Channel 4 faces a similar obligation under Section 288. On 3 April 2017, Ofcom became the first external regulator of the BBC. Under the Charter and Agreement, Ofcom must set an operating licence for the BBC’s UK public services containing regulatory conditions. We are currently consulting on the proposed quotas as set out in the draft operating licence published on 29 March 2017. See https://www.ofcom.org.uk/consultations-and- statements/ofcom-and-the-bbc for further details. As our new BBC responsibilities did not start until April 2017 and this report is based on 2016 data, the BBC quotas reported on herein were set by the BBC Trust. This document sets out the titles of programmes that the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 certified were ‘Made outside of London’ (MOL) productions broadcast during 2016.

  • Shortlisted TV Programmes
    Shortlisted TV programmes 1. Ministry of Hope TX: 12/10/2017 Dur: 52’00” Broadcaster: RTÉ Production Company: RTÉ Religious Department Ministry of Hope is an uplifting and compelling three part series, sharing moments of joy, exhilaration and crisis with the men and women whose job it is to bring faith, hope and love to strangers in three very different Irish institutions. This powerful and inspiring observational series follows three Irish chaplains over a whole year, as they reach out to people at their moments of greatest vulnerability, to counsel, inspire and care for them. Margaret Sleator was one of the first lay chaplains in Dublin’s Mater Misericordiae University Hospital when she started 15 years ago. Catherine Black is the new chaplain in Shelton Abbey Open Prison in Arklow, Co. Wicklow. And Philip McKinley is the Church of Ireland member of a new multi- denominational chaplaincy team, serving 17,000 students from all over the world at Dublin City University. Their jobs are to give guidance, support and inspiration: to patients facing illness and death; to prisoners seeking redemption; and to students struggling with campus life. Their vocations are all steeped in deep faith. But, in an increasingly secular Ireland, why do we still rely on religious chaplains to shepherd us through life’s challenges? In the third and final episode of Ministry of Hope, having set up the DCU Gospel Choir as a way of bringing students together, Philip McKinley prepares them for the performance of a life time – in front of former President Mary McAleese at Dublin’s Helix venue.

  • Improving the Ofcom ‘Made Outside London’ (MOL) Criteria
    Copyright – The Indie Club May 2018 [email protected] Improving the Ofcom ‘Made outside London’ (MOL) Criteria Published 11th May 2018 “I’m interested in the next generation of TV talent in the north and if all the TV jobs are in London – there won’t be one.” Jimmy McGovern Many of television’s most talented, including Jimmy McGovern and Paul Abbott have signed this submission, alongside well over a thousand other companies and programme makers, because their own careers began in a production base outside London and they want that opportunity to be available for the next generation. At the moment, it is fast disappearing. Paul Abbott - No Offence, Shameless, State of Play & Clocking Off Jimmy McGovern - Broken, Moving On, Hillsborough & Cracker Sally Wainwright - Scott & Bailey, Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax Nicola Shindler - Come Home, Trust Me & Ordinary Lies (plus those above & below) Russell T Davies – A Very English Scandal, Cucumber, Banana & Tofu, Doctor Who & Queer as Folk David Nicholls – Patrick Melrose, Us, One Day & Starter for Ten Debbie Horsfield – Poldark, Cutting It & Making Out John Thomson - Cold Feet, Coronation Street & The Fast Show “It’s incredibly important that Britain has thriving creative clusters outside London with on-going, meaningful TV production happening within them. That’s the only way people from all sorts of different backgrounds get a chance to make television, which then translates as diverse rewards for the audience, the main beneficiaries. It has to be a creative meritocracy. Regulation was put in place to balance the scales, but the numbers are still quite embarrassing.
