What could it be? Was the recent Two Pints live episode really entirely CGI? Is Radio 5 Live actually being broadcast out of Bombay using talented and under paid Indian impressionists? Did John Simm not get transported back to the 70’s to fight crime after all? Is it true that Dot Cotton is really a do-gooding Babyshambles Fan called June? Where will it all end? Next week we’ll find out where the blame lies. Of course the BBC are trying their best to stamp it all out and make sure we find out from them, rather than from some irritating Tab. But this time, we don’t know who is to blame.įollowing Blue Petergate, Blue Petergate II, Comic Reliefgate, 6Musicgate and more, it turns out there is still deception bubbling under over at Broadcasting house. More lies and moral filth coming out of the BBC as television continues to be to modern media what the Ottoman Empire was to 19 th Century Europe. and Doctor Who Confidential, and if you’re too lazy to leave the computer and go to the Telly you don’t have to. There’s more to it than crap docusoaps, Two Pints. The proposition of a drama by the man that draws Gorillaz definitely spikes our interest and the Vampire thing could well be good.īBC3 then. Six drama pilots will include Phoo Action, written by Tank Girl creator Jamie Hewlett thriller The Things I Haven't Told You Being Human, a tale of a vampire, ghost and werewolf who share a house and Mrs In-Betweeny, created by Shameless writer Paul Abbott and Caleb Ranson. “New entertainment format Upstaged will be a mixture of talent show, stamina and social networking, which Cohen has described as "risky".” It won’t be as good as Modern Toss, that’s for sure. The Wrong Door is being described as a “sketch show with CGI”, but quite what that means is anyone’s guess. Lily Allen And Friends could actually be quite good…Lily herself is an engaging enough personality, although they’ve been cagey about the format so we’ll hold off until we’ve seen it. All of which could probably be pretty decent in their own place, but are hardly unfamiliar BBC3 ground.
The hoosiers worried about ray meaning series#
Which is all well and good until you look at the new schedule, which despite a fancy new logo (we’ll miss those little blob things) doesn’t feel all that new and risky to us: docu-soaps on single Mums, teen pregnancy and modelling, make over shows “with a twist”, returning American imports like Heroes, a refresh of the old-as-the-hills comedy variety show with The Wall, and a new series of Gavin and Stacey, which admittedly did deserve a second go as it’s quite fine. We have a fantastic lineup of programmes and we are going to make them available wherever young people want them." The thinking behind this rebrand of the channel is that we have, in effect, created a BBC3 world in which our content can move seamlessly between TV, online and mobile. "At BBC3 we should be known for pioneering risk, and be obsessed with all things new - new talent, new programmes, and a new relationship between television and the internet. No Channel outside of rolling news has dared to broadcast directly on the web, although it does feel a little like the Beeb are Guinea-pigging the concept with the channel they risk least with.Ĭohen’s breathless excitement is evident: Give them their dues, this genuinely is an innovation in British TV. Which actually means “it’ll be on the internet at the same time it’s on the telly”. BBC 3, the channel that bought you Can Fat Teens Hunt, are aiming to revolutionise the concept of Television as we know it, or at least that’s what they’d have us believe by the tone of controller Danny Cohen over at Media Guardian.Īpparently the channel will ‘Simulcast’ (a point right there for anyone playing Bullshit Bingo: The Media Edition) all of its programming on ‘Multiple Platforms’.
