Now the BBC hopes to bring youngers back to the BBC?


But Many prefer You Tube, Tik Tok ,
Facebook, Netflix and AmazonPrime.

[Bollo]

So many good tv shows came from BBC three, I can't believe they haven't done it sooner..

[Scarlett.]

Good, was a silly decision to make it online only

[Maxxie.]

With Killing Eve, Fleabag, RuPaul etc. all airing on BBC1 anyway, is there really a point to this?

I'm here for it anyway though, RPDR UK for S3 will hopefully have a 9PM time slot and get Love Island S3 level ratings.

Yes as they test some new shows on BBC3HD first

At the time
the Government wanted/demanded the BBC to Cut Back

Back in 2015



The linear channel ceased operations
on 16 February 2016, replaced by
a BBC Three-branded streaming channel on the iPlayer.


Before Brexit Vote
David Cameron had full control
until the Vote on June 2016

...I quite like it online, I have to say...I was watching something on BBC1 the other day and I was trying to pause it for ages while I popped to do something and even changed the batteries in the remote...then I realise it was on Tv, not catch up....online is more flexible, I feel...

[Ammi]

...is this to help justify keeping licensing fees...

No many young
would watch it on a TV.



Its the BBC plan to ask youngers to return to BBC.


That BBC TAX is going to change in the Future.

BB to return on 3?

BB to return on 3?

Bit dated format & concept, but you really never know.

They may well do cause itv has just spanked 1million quid up the wall for a repeat of some American drivel.

Could happen
if Endemol can keep the Costings low?


Thats why Ch5
dumped them


Costings

[Denver]

Ofcom have given the green light for its return and have confirmed it will be given a prime slot in the TV listing, it is set to have a £70m budget for its first year back on TV

If they want younger viewers to watch their Channels then they need to make Shows with a bit of life in them.

That'd be my advice to them.

Family Guy is on FoxHD

Not anymore

[arista]

Not anymore


Of course at that time I made that post
the Disney take over had not been thought of, yet.


So very silly to do a pithy reply
on a months old post.
