The BBC has given serious consideration to the idea of moving BBC Three back to television four years after the youth network became an online-only service through BBC streaming service iPlayer.
Deadline understands that BBC top brass have held talks about the possibility of reversing the controversial decision to kill BBC Three as a television channel. Although no decision has been made, it is under review as the BBC prepares to publish its annual plan later this month — a document setting out the broadcaster’s strategic objectives for the year ahead. The thinking is that BBC Three is in good health, buoyed by hits including RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, Fleabag and This Country, and restoring the channel to television could be a battering ram in the BBC’s efforts to win back young viewers. But the decision could have an impact on other services, given the BBC’s financial constraints. The suggestion being that cuts would have to be made elsewhere to fund BBC Three’s move back to TV. BBC director general Tony Hall ultimately made the call to shift BBC Three online in 2014, sparking a vocal campaign to save the channel before it was switched off in 2016. If he changes his mind, he is likely to face accusations that he made a mistake in pulling the shutters down on the youth service.

Jessica Meuse was robbed.

Making Shows that have a bit of life in them would be a good start at fixing this problem.

The BBC really does cater for the younger generation. They have channels dedicated to children and to young people... and they're asking the elderly to pay for a licence despite the fact they are not catered for at all.

BBC2 & 4 and arguably Radio 2 - 6 cared for the elderly

They need to show re-runs of Alf Garnett. There's a demand for Alf, out there.

Looks as though this is going ahead, quite possibly at the expense of BBC Four

Happy about this but they shouldn’t have closed it in the first place, glad the budget is increasing too.
Not that arsed if BBC4 gets axed as long as they show the old TOTP compilations on BBC2 or something |

How narrow minded. The majority of BBC viewers are older.

bbc four's a great channel and not to sound patronising but a lot of their demographic probably barely know how to use iplayer or at are gonna bother specifically using it to watch a BBC four programme, so replacing it with BBC three is a bad idea imo.
I'm here for BBC three if four stays though. Last edited by Maxxie.; 20-05-2020 at 01:52 PM. |

Imagine calling someone uncultured when you’re on a big brother forum and actively support Katie Hopkins?
