1 Background (1)

• This information pack contains data gathered through Ofcom’s Market Intelligence database in order to provide a picture of the PSB programming and spend over the last five years on PSB channels.

• The data in this report are collected by Ofcom from the broadcasters each year, as part of their PSB returns and include figures on the volume of hours broadcast during the year and programme expenditure.

Notes on the data

• PSB Channels

– Where possible data has been provided for BBC One, BBC Two, ITV1, ITV Breakfast, Channel 4, Channel 5 and the BBC’s PSB digital channels: BBC Three, BBC Four, CBBC, Cbeebies, BBC News and BBC Parliament. BBC HD has been excluded from much of the analysis in the report as much of its output is simulcast from the core BBC channels and therefore would represent a disproportionate amount of broadcast hours and spend. Please refer to individual footnotes and chart details indicating when a smaller group of these channels is reported on. ITV1 includes GMTV1 unless otherwise stated. Data for S4C is shown in a separate section, apart from S4C’s children’s output which is included within the children’s section of the report. – GMTV became Daybreak during 2010; the data relating to both services are labelled as ‘ITV Breakfast’ throughout this pack.

• Spend data

– Programme spend represents the total cost of production or acquisition, including rights costs but excluding third party investment. In the case of commissions, it represents the price paid to the independent producer (and therefore includes a mark-up on production costs). – Trend data showing programme costs over a number of years is given in 2011 prices (i.e. taking account of inflation, using the Retail Price Index).

2 Background (2)

• Genre definitions

– The allocation of programmes to different genres and the application of common definitions was agreed with broadcasters in 2006 when programme classifications were updated and standardised across PSBs. Figures for certain genres may therefore differ slightly from earlier reported figures. These are noted where relevant. The new genre structure allowed broadcasters more flexibility in the classification of programmes to particular genres, but it has not been possible to go back and re-classify pre-2006 data, therefore analysis of trends using the new breakdowns is only possible for four of the five years reviewed in this report.

– The following changes should be noted in the composition of the figures 2006 and later: • Drama includes TV movies which were previously added to Films. Entertainment includes contemporary music but Comedy is now shown separately and includes situation comedy and scripted comedy. • Specialist Factual includes Science & Technology, History, Nature & Wildlife and other documentaries. • Other Factual includes Hobbies & Leisure, Factual Magazines, Consumer Magazines and General Factual. • Factual Entertainment includes reality shows. In previous years some Factual Entertainment programmes were included within Entertainment.

Note: these genres are defined for our monitoring and reporting purposes, and do not necessarily correspond to definitions used in broadcasting legislation, such as the AVMS Directive.

• Definition of peak time

– The standard definition of peak time is from 6pm to 10.30pm. However, for BBC Three and BBC Four peak time runs from 7pm (when broadcasting starts on these channels) to 10.30pm.
