蘑菇短视频

A key part of our role is to understand what audiences in England want from the 蘑菇短视频 and identify any particular issues or concerns. To do this we discuss the feedback and discussions from the meetings we have with our panel members in the spring, summer and autumn across England. From time to time we also meet in smaller working groups by conference call and by email - as well as using other sources of audience data and insight.

The advice we have submitted to the Trust as a result of our discussions on various 蘑菇短视频 services and strategies can be seen below. The 蘑菇短视频 Trust carries out regular in-depth reviews of each of the 蘑菇短视频's services, as part of its Charter responsibilities. The Trust has looked at every 蘑菇短视频 service over the last five years and has now begun a second round of reviews. The first of these covered 蘑菇短视频 Online and Red Button.

Our submission to the Trust’s consultations on 蘑菇短视频 Charter Review and the 蘑菇短视频’s proposals in British, Bold, Creative is set out in two parts. The first is based on discussion and consideration of the key questions of relevance to audiences in the government’s Green Paper, published in July 2015 on the 蘑菇短视频’s future, its mission, scope, funding and regulation.  The second part considers the 蘑菇短视频 Executive’s proposals in British, Bold, Creative for future programmes and services in the next Charter period. In particular the members deliberated on how the 蘑菇短视频 might evolve to meet the priorities and needs of audiences in England as both consumers and citizens in the digital age.

蘑菇短视频 Local Radio and Local News and Current Affairs in England 

The 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review looked at 蘑菇短视频 Local Radio and local news and current affairs in England. It covered 蘑菇短视频 Local Radio in England, 蘑菇短视频 regional and current affairs on TV, and 蘑菇短视频 local news online. The Trust previously reviewed 蘑菇短视频 Local Radio in 2012, but this was the first time the whole of the 蘑菇短视频’s local and regional news and current affairs output in England was looked at together.

In preparing our submission to the Trust we discussed how licence fee payers are using the services and their appeal; how effectively the 蘑菇短视频 is performing on behalf of local and regional audiences in England; and how the services contribute to the delivery of the 蘑菇短视频’s public purposes.

蘑菇短视频 Speech Radio – 蘑菇短视频 Radio 4, Radio 5 live and their digital sister stations Radio 4 Extra and 5 live Sports Extra 

The 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review of the 蘑菇短视频’s speech radio stations, announced in December 2014, looked at how well the radio stations are serving audiences, the future plans of the stations, and whether they are responding effectively to changing audience expectations and listening habits. The review also involved a public consultation.

In our submission to the Trust’s review of 蘑菇短视频 Speech Radio we said that the 蘑菇短视频’s speech radio services – Radio 4, Radio 5 live, Radio 4 Extra and 5 live Sports Extra - continue to play a valued and important role for the audience in daily, contemporary life across the UK. In general, we consider that the speech radio portfolio is performing well and meets the individual service licences in many respects.

蘑菇短视频 Music Radio – Radio 1, Radio 1Xtra, Radio 2, Radio 3, Radio 6 Music and Asian Network

The 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review of the 蘑菇短视频’s six music radio stations, announced in February 2014, was the first to look at all six stations together. The review also involved a public consultation.

In our submission to the 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review of 蘑菇短视频 Music radio we said that the 蘑菇短视频’s music radio services - Radio1, Radio1Xtra, Radio 2, Radio 3, Radio 6 Music and Asian Network - together offer a diverse range of high quality, creative, varied and distinctive content that is widely appreciated and valued by audiences. We consider that the six music radio stations are performing well against many aspects of their service licences, delivering an impressive breadth of entertaining, engaging and informative programming and providing some outstanding new, UK and live music which appeals to a variety of different audience interests.

蘑菇短视频 Television Services – 蘑菇短视频 One, Two, Three and Four

The 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review of 蘑菇短视频 Television, announced in February 2013, is the Trust’s second review of 蘑菇短视频 Television, but the first to look at all four channels together. The review also involved a public consultation.

In our submission to the 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review of 蘑菇短视频 television we said that the 蘑菇短视频’s main television services are performing well against some aspects of their service licence. Many of the programmes are high quality and enjoyed by audiences, and there is a good range of different types of programmes, some of which gain large numbers of viewers, others with more niche appeal.

We hoped that this service review can help to clarify the roles and remits of each of the channels, in order for the 蘑菇短视频 to continue to provide such high-quality programmes for all audiences.

蘑菇短视频 Network News and Current Affairs

In February 2013 the 蘑菇短视频 Trust announced a review of 蘑菇短视频 network news and current affairs, which also involved a public consultation, which examined how well news and current affairs performed against commitments set by the Trust in the 蘑菇短视频's service licences, and against the 蘑菇短视频's broader public service role.

In our submission we found that for many people the 蘑菇短视频 continues to be a prime source of reliable and accurate news. We considered how increased choice has impacted on the development of editorial content and we said that the 蘑菇短视频 news offer was successful because of the range, breadth and balance of news services and coverage.

Children's Services

In our submission to the 蘑菇短视频 Trust’s review of Children’s Services we said that CBeebies and C蘑菇短视频 delivered high quality programmes, largely made in the UK, for a range of children. The services were trusted by parents and enjoyed by children.

We also said that:

• The range of programmes differentiated the 蘑菇短视频’s children’s channels from others, though believed there could be more educational content on C蘑菇短视频. 
• The channels were largely successful in representing a diverse UK but more could be done to reflect different geographic areas or socio-economic groups. 
• It was very important the 蘑菇短视频 continues to invest in services for children.
