BBC 4 is part of the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) and can be viewed on the TV. This channel launched in 2002 and starts sharing programmes at 19:00 to 04:00.I want my show to be shown in the afternoon at about 4pm, but on this channel that probably wouldn't be plausible. The earliest it would be allowed to be on is 7pm, however the audience at home can record the programme and obviously watch it whenever they want. If I wanted to keep the target range to adult only the timings the channel allows would give me the ability to keep it adult based only. This is something I will have to think about before my pitch.
This channel shows a wide range of programmes including genres such as; comedy, documentaries, music, international film, original programmes, drama and current affairs.
There are quite a few genres I could experiment with when creating the tone to my show, so if I wanted it to have some humour I could do that.
Most of the programmes shown on the channel are seen as educational and some of them might give an insight to parts of the world that people don't usually see.
Some of those programmes include; "James May at the Edge of Space", "The Horizon Guide to Space Shuttles", "British History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley", "Michael Grade's History of the Pantomime Dame", etc.
One programme that I found that could potentially help my show fit in is "Pop Quiz: The Comeback". This show is a music based quiz show, and there are 3 celebrities on each team panel. They then answer questions about the genre of music and so on.
This show will be quite similar to mine as it has the same elements. This show is chatty, and has some humour, while still being quite informative through the questions. 'Between the Pages' will be quite similar to this sort of tone, but instead of music based it will be all about literature.
