How big is the BBC?

Is that supposed to indicate that I'm NOT a guy?

Humph!

*SWOON*

What next? An aerial map of your house and where BBC Bristol is? Please...it'd really make my day. And do you have any BBC News music or am I not supposed to ask you for that?

The BBC is a massive organisation spanning the world from what I can see. They can be broadly separated into these catergories : -

BBC Television

That's all of the BBC channels you see in the UK (BBC 1, 2, 3, 4, News 24 etc) and the BBC channels that are, strictly speaking only available abroad like BBC World, BBC America, BBC Food et al.

BBC Radio

That covers the national radio output (BBC Radio 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5) which can be received on a normal radio set together with the digital stations such as 1Xtra, 5 Live Sports Extra, BBC 6 Music et al. Also included is their worldwide radio station the BBC World Service.

BBC Newsgathering

A network of reporters around the world who erm...gather news and do reporting for the BBC. Nearly every country has a BBC correspondent I believe.

Broadcast bits aside, they also have these others as well...

BBC Broadcast & Resources

That covers the production and OB facilities that they use and hire out together with the costume stores, studios and post production.

BBC Worldwide

Their marketing arm. Responsible for those videos of the Teletubbies that are played ad nauseum in nurseries, playschools and the Early Learning Centre together with the merchandise as well like the OFAH videos and BBC mugs.

Others I have heard of but do not know what they do...

BBC Monitoring

BBC Technology

BBC Research & Development

Also I'm sure there are many that I have missed out. Feel free to add or correct some of the statements.

Would you like the composers home telephone number, and for me to set you up on a date with him?

Where you can't spell people's names kind of mood?

You know I love you really Nick.

Yea.

WOW!! Could you really do that for me!? I'm in awe - and also can you change the colour of Points West aston's to pink....now you're a media high flyer and all. Many thanks.

I'm sure you're all man and more...

Then you're ego is clearly too big for this forum. Au revoir.

Does anyone here have any images or clips of an old Tyne Tees show, The Roxy? Let me know if you have.

Well you ARE going on a holiday - will it be one where you're perminately connected to the internet mid-Atlantic with nothing better to do then post on TVF?

I've already started a petition to my managers.

Now, what do I need to do next to be more like the Brass bloke?

Actually ... maybe I don't want to go down that alley ...

Oh! Whoops!
