    Berry, Richard (2013) Radio with pictures: Radio visualization in BBC national radio. The Radio Journal, 11 (2). pp. 169-184. ISSN 1476-4504 Downloaded from: http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/id/eprint/5210/ Usage guidelines Please refer to the usage guidelines at http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/policies.html or alternatively contact [email protected]. Radio with Pictures: Radio Visualisation in BBC National Radio Richard Berry University of Sunderland Abstract. Radio has always had pictures. The ones the listener created in their own minds and this is, most of us agree, one of the medium's greatest strengths. However, radio is increasingly consumed on a digital platform (such as DAB Radio, Digital TV, a mobile device or a computer) on devices with screens, rather than a dial. This creates a problem for radio because when we look at the device we are listening to we see a screen that often lacks rich content. The process of Radio Visualisation is about filling this space. This papers focus, though, is the other ways in which radio is visualising itself online in a process that deploys transmedia storytelling techniques that build relationships with the audience, builds brands and helps broadcasters to tell stories in ways never before possible. In the spring of 2011 2.84 million British TV viewers watched a radio programme on their Televisions. They were tuning in via interactive television (or the 'red button') services to watch the BBC Radio One breakfast presenter Chris Moyles attempt to break a world record for the longest radio programme. The BBC installed a series of fixed cameras in the programme’s regular studio at the BBC's Yalding House studios, with added 'roving' cameras to allow the presenters to broadcast from other parts of the building and a cafe across the street.

    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.

Such material may include, but is not limited to, offensive language…sex, sexual violence, humiliation, distress, violation of human dignity…Appropriate information should also be broadcast where it would assist in avoiding or minimising offence”; and Rule 8.1: “Any infringement of privacy in programmes, or in connection with obtaining material included in programmes, must be warranted.” The breaches related two editions of The Russell Brand Show which contained offensive material relating to the actor Andrew Sachs and his granddaughter, and content which unwarrantably infringed their privacy.

    EDUCATION GUIDES Tackling homophobic language Stonewall [email protected] www.stonewall.org.uk/atschool Charity No 1101255 By Hannah Kibirige and Luke Tryl Designed by Lucy Ward Tackling homophobic language Supported by The Monument EDUCATION GUIDES Trust Foreword Sadly, even in the second decade of the twenty-first century homophobic language remains as prevalent as ever. Ninety nine per cent of lesbian, gay and bisexual young people report hearing the derogatory use of phrases such as ‘that’s so gay’ or ‘you’re so gay’ in school. Unfortunately many of those schools still continue to cling to the old adage: ‘Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me’. The truth however, as good educators know, is that unchallenged use of ‘gay’ to mean bad or rubbish has a profoundly negative effect on gay young people’s self-esteem. That’s why Stonewall has launched a ground-breaking new campaign to make plain the importance of tackling homophobic language. We’ve produced a series of posters challenging the use of the word gay, alongside this guide for teachers and a partner guide for young people on how they too can challenge homophobic language among their peers. To meet the evident demand for teacher training on this issue, Stonewall will also be holding Train the Trainer seminars across Britain, as part of our School Champions programme. These one day seminars give teachers all the tools that they need to train the rest of the staff in their school to tackle homophobic bullying and language. This guide showcases the ways in which some outstanding schools, local authorities and academy groups are already tackling homophobic language with young people.
