Viewers had a choice of nearly 7,000 unique film titles across all channels in 2015, and the cumulative film audience was just under three billion. FACTS IN FOCUS In 2015, 6,966 unique film titles were shown on television in the UK, including 1,463 on terrestrial channels, 1,368 on pay TV film channels and 4,135 on other digital channels. There were 1,665 film transmissions on terrestrial channels, down from 1,943 in 2014. Of these, 372 (22%) were UK films (down from 400 in 2014), 208 (12%) were network premieres and 39 (2%) were foreign language films. The most-watched film screening on terrestrial television was Brave on BBC One, with 6.1 million viewers; the top independent UK film screening was Quartet on BBC Two, with 2.7 million viewers. There were 2,952 million viewings of feature film across all television formats (except pay-per-view) in 2015 – over 17 times the number of cinema admissions. The estimated value of feature film to UK broadcasters in 2015 was £1.6 billion, up from £1.4 billion in 2014. FILM ON UK TELEVISION PROGRAMMING ON THE TERRESTRIAL CHANNELS Table 1 shows the total number of feature films broadcast on the five terrestrial channels in 2015 and the number of UK titles broadcast in that time. (Terrestrial television is used here to describe the previous national terrestrial analogue services, all of which have some degree of public service obligation.) UK films are broken down into older titles (more than eight years old) and recent theatrical releases (released in the last eight years). Here, UK films include all titles listed as UK originated by the Broadcasters’ Audience Research Board (BARB), plus UK qualifying films given other nationalities (mostly USA) in the BARB data. There were 1,665 film transmissions on terrestrial television in 2015, down from 1,943 in 2014, an average of just under five films a day.

  • BBC Trust’S Review of BBC Services for Younger Audiences
    Channel 4 submission to the BBC Trust’s review of BBC services for younger audiences 1. Channel 4 welcomes the opportunity to provide its views to the BBC Trust’s review of BBC services for younger audiences. Channel 4 is a publicly-owned, commercially-funded public service broadcaster. Its core public service channel, Channel 4, is a free-to-air service funded predominantly by advertising. Unlike the other commercially-funded public service broadcasters, Channel 4 is not shareholder owned: commercial revenue is only a means to delivering Channel 4’s public purpose end and any surplus revenues are reinvested in the delivery of its public service remit. 2. In recent years, Channel 4 has broadened its portfolio to offer a range of digital services, including the free-to-air, commercially-funded digital television channels Channel 4+1, E4, E4+1, Film4, More4 and 4Music. Channel 4 also offers a video on demand service, 4oD, and it is expanding its range of services at channel4.com. In addition, Channel 4 offers a range of online education projects for 14 to 19 year olds and has launched an innovation pilot fund, 4iP, which seeks to stimulate whole new digital media services across a range of areas, including video games, the arts, democracy and sport. 3. These innovations have allowed Channel 4 to stay in touch with audiences— especially younger viewers—who are rapidly migrating to digital media. Ever since its launch in 1982, Channel 4’s brand has resonated particularly strongly with teenagers and younger adults, and the organisation speaks with an authenticity of voice which is not easily replicated by other public institutions.

  • Marina Abramovic Advises Public to Complain to a Tree to Help Heal from 2020.” the Art Newspaper
    Editors. “Exclusive video: Marina Abramovic advises public to complain to a tree to help heal from 2020.” The Art Newspaper. November 27, 2020. "Trees are like human beings," says the performance artist Marina Abramovic. "They have intelligence. They have feelings. They communicate with each other. And also, they are perfectly silent listeners. You can complain to them." And letting out your frustrations about a dire 2020 to a tree is exactly the advice the artist is giving the public. The participatory performance Complain to a Tree is the latest addition to the “Abramovic Method”—a series of exercises developed by the artist for practicing being present—which she will reveal on a new Sky Arts programme. Abramovic is taking over the TV channel for five hours on 5 December, to teach audiences about performance art. Abramovic will be the first artist to take over Sky Arts, which has had an ambitious overhaul and went free in the UK in September. "For Sky Arts to give an artist five hours to do what they want is like a revolution. I feel an incredible responsibility that it should not be the last time: we have to really work, and we have to reach as many viewers as possible—especially, we’re targeting young viewers. After the five hours of this programme, everybody will know what performance art is, I hope,” Abramovic tells The Art Newspaper. Here are Abramovic's full instructions for Complain to a Tree One important thing is that you really choose a tree that you like. It can be small and even not that beautiful a tree.

  • Researching Digital on Screen Graphics Executive Sum M Ary
    Researching Digital On Screen Graphics Executive Sum m ary Background In Spring 2010, the BBC commissioned independent market research company, Ipsos MediaCT to conduct research into what the general public, across the UK thought of Digital On Screen Graphics (DOGs) – the channel logos that are often in the corner of the TV screen. The research was conducted between 5th and 11th March, with a representative sample of 1,031 adults aged 15+. The research was conducted by interviewers in-home, using the Ipsos MORI Omnibus. The key findings from the research can be found below. Key Findings Do viewers notice DOGs? As one of our first questions we split our sample into random halves and showed both halves a typical image that they would see on TV. One was a very busy image, with a DOG present in the top left corner, the other image had much less going on, again with the DOG in the top left corner. We asked respondents what the first thing they noticed was, and then we asked what they second thing they noticed was. It was clear from the results that the DOGs did not tend to stand out on screen, with only 12% of those presented with the ‘less busy’ screen picking out the DOG (and even fewer, 7%, amongst those who saw the busy screen). Even when we had pointed out DOGs and talked to respondents specifically about them, 59% agreed that they ‘tend not to notice the logos’, with females and viewers over 55, the least likely to notice them according to our survey.
