  • 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.

In this report I would like to study about Itv’s News channel functions and nature of works in ITV’s graphics hub etc. ITV is a 24-hour television news channel in the United Kingdom which Launched in 1955 as Independent Television. It started broadcasting from 1 August 2000 to 23 December 2005. Latterly only between 6:00 am and 6:00 pm when ITV4 cut its hours to half day in 2005 and analogue cable, presenting national and international news plus regular business, sport, entertainment and weather summaries. Priority was usually given to breaking news stories. There was also an added focus on British stories, drawing on the resources of the ITV network's regional newsrooms. As a public service broadcaster, the ITV network is obliged to broadcast programming of public importance, including news, current affairs, children's and religious programming as well as party election broadcasts on behalf of the major political parties and political events.

  • 1 BBC Four Biopics
    BBC Four biopics: Lessons in Trashy Respectability The broadcast of Burton and Taylor in July 2013 marked the end of a decade- long cycle of feature-length biographical dramas transmitted on BBC Four, the niche arts and culture digital channel of the public service broadcaster. The subjects treated in these biopics were various: political figures, famous cooks, authors of popular literature, comedians and singers. The dramas focused largely on the unhappy or complex personal lives of well-loved figures of British popular culture. From the lens of the 21st century, these dramas offered an opportunity for audiences to reflect on the culture and society of the 20th century, changing television’s famous function of ‘witness’ to one of ‘having witnessed’ and/or ‘remembering’ (Ellis, 2000). The programmes function as nostalgia pieces, revisiting personalities familiar to the anticipated older audience of BBC Four, working in concert with much of the archive and factual content on the digital broadcaster’s schedules. However, by revealing apparent ‘truths’ that reconfigure the public images of the figures they narrate, these programmes also undermine nostalgic impulses, presenting conflicting interpretations of the recent past. They might equally be seen as impudent incursions onto the memory of the public figures, unnecessarily exposing the real-life subjects to censure, ridicule or ex post facto critical judgement. Made thriftily on small budgets, the films were modest and spare in visual style but were generally well received critically, usually thanks to writerly screenplays and strong central performances. The dramas became an irregular but important staple of the BBC Four schedule, furnishing the channel with some of their highest ratings in a history chequered by low audience numbers.

  • Diamond Technical Account and Methodology
    Diamond Technical Account and Methodology What is Diamond? Diamond is designed to answer two questions: - Does the workforce on UK productions, both on and off-screen, reflect the diversity of the UK population? - Are audiences seeing themselves reflected on-screen. With the support of production companies, Diamond collects diversity data directly from cast and crew working on TV programmes (actual data), as well as information about how those on-screen might be perceived by viewing audiences (perceived data). Diamond data collection Scope Diamond is collecting data from: UK original productions commissioned by BBC, ITV, Channel 4, C5/ViacomCBS and Sky. All genres (although we do not currently report on film, sport and news) A large number of on and off-screen TV production roles (see Appendix 2) Programmes broadcast across the following channels BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Scotland, CBBC, CBEEBIES, CITV, GMTV1, GMTV2, ITV Encore, ITV1, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, ITVBe, 4seven, Channel4, E4, Film Four, More 4, 5 Star, Channel5, Challenge TV, Paramount Network, Pick TV, Real Lives, Sky Arts, Sky Atlantic, Sky One, Sky Two, Sky Witness1 Data about 6 diversity characteristics: gender, gender identity, age, ethnicity, disability and sexual orientation. Diamond is not collecting data about: Programmes which have not been commissioned by the five Diamond broadcasters People working across broadcasting more generally, outside of production (our data are not overall workforce statistics). People who are not making a significant contribution to a programme (for example part of a crowd scene) More information about what is and isn’t collected can be found in the guidance notes issued to producers.
