The BBC sinks to a new low

Why so ?


BBC prime time tonight - Hairdressing for dogs

Dogs are a very popular pet and in lockdown dog grooming isn't
regarded as an essential service.

So for dog owners this was quite possibly a very useful programme.

Not that I watched it myself.

As it happens it seems to be the sort of feature the BBC were showing in
the early days of TV, before and just after Word War 2.

Given the unrivalled archive of arts and culture documentaries, top
class dramas and series which the BBC are sitting on, I personally find
it an absolute disgrace that the best they can manage to show on BBC4,
a channel supposedly targeted at minority audiences is to show endless
repeats of Top of The Pops, old films and last week, even snooker. Its
almost as if they're deliberately running it into the ground.

When you compare what Talking Pictures TV seem to manage, on the face
of it financed solely by Dormeo Matress ads, broadcasting films 24/7,
digitally remastering films and short documentaries, and issuing them
as DVD's, it does make you wonder what the Beeb spends all the money on.

One priority for me would be unskippable ads on all Iplayer output,

Very simple. Stuff Talking Pictures shows has near zero commercial value.
If their audience goes up, you'll find what they have to pay for what they

The BBC seems to be rapidly going that way. What was once considered
poor daytime TV now seems to have been elevated to prime time.

re run on those other stations which have dog or pet related content for

I think the problem is that the old stuff the bbc has is often incomplete black and
white or if its science based really well out of date.

For a start they've got over 600 episodes of Arena in their archive
covering almost every major artist, author, actor, playwright
director to have emerged both in the UK and elsewhere both before
and since 1975 when the programme first aired. All in colour.
In drama you've got around 100 episodes of the "The Wednesday Play"
1964-1970 (B/W) - followed by approx 200 eps of "Play For Today"
1970-84 (colour) followed by fifteen series of "Screen Two" 85-96
and six series of "Screen One" 89-98. Nobody is claiming that all
the above are gems but some certainly are worth showing or even
issuing on DVD's.

And claims that the Beeb don't show this stuff as a result of having
sold the rights to somebody else is obvious ********, as it isn't
available anywhere, at any price

But apart from that lot Brian, you're perfectly correct, there's
nothing !

I deliberately left out science documentaries as irrespective of it
being out of date the "experts" on here are regulalrly creaming their
pants over "mistakes" they can identify in material which was broadcast
last night. Never mind 20 years ago.

I just watched a couple of DVD's I recorded off air maybe a year
or two back. "Artists on film". Each had snippets of full length
documentaries that had featured mainly either on "Monitor" (B/W)
or "Arena" (colour). Similar compilations have featured photographers
and architects on the BBC. Among others. One "The Artists on Film"
featured among others Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, and Victor
Passmore.

Now if you're going to sit there and tell me that among the general
viewing public in the UK or anywhere, documentary films about Henry Moore,
or Barbara Hepworth have greater commercial value than do the re-runs
of "Upstairs Downstairs" which Talking Picture TV are currently showing
then you're quite simply wrong.

Basically the BBC are taking the **** in simply showing clips. The
minority audience, which still exists, who have actually heard of
Henry Moore couldn't give a toss if one the films is
in B/W - same as the classic "Pop Goes the Easel". Except the BBC
simply don't have the courage or the integrity to show any of this
original material. They'd rather show old episodes of "Top of the
Pops" instead.

There are already two BBC channels available for snooker, BBC1 and
BBC2. As to its being "gripping" 99% of the players are totally
boring. The only exception is Ronnie O'Sullivan. And with him its
been exactly the same story for the past 25 years. If he can apply
himself on the day, then his opponent needn't have bothered turning
up.
But if Ronnie is having an off day then that was another few hours
of your life you're never going to get back, and all for nothing.

The problem with such "sports" is that the BBC ignore all their other
viewers to give wall to wall coverage during these competitions often
changing the (alternative) schedules at the last minute but NOT to show
the event but so the pundits employed by the BBC can earn their money.

A few years ago the BBC started to scrape the bottom of the barrel; now it's
destroying a microecosystem by turning over the barrel and scraping all the
crud from that.
More and more are repeats (I noticed that HIGABMNFY used to have "Old" for
repeats and now it doesn't), cheap quiz shows worthy of the commercial
channels down the EPG, loads of auction, ****ing cooking and sensationalised
police etc. programmes.
Time to reduce the fee based on repeats and low quality.

Worse than that, from the very little I've seen it appears to be aimed
at people who like dressing up dogs in little costumes after first
giving them a silly haircut. In the little I saw at the end of the
program, one dog was in fishnet stockings!

Black and White on film can look very good on an HD TV. Ditto
old films from 50+ years ago filmed on Kodachrome/Kodacolour.

Old 405 line Black and White video is grotty, as is some old
Black and White film.

And they will insist on stretching pre-1920x1080 stuff to
fill the full width.

True - but they do tend to make it. And that costs a lot more than showing
a 50 year old B movie.

The reason is that after a time, they have to re-negotiate to show it. A
new contract with the talent, etc. Feature films usually do a buy out on
copyright.

The BEEB doesn't buy outright the rights to a play. Their agreement will
be for so many years and possibly so many showings. Same sort of thing
applies to artist's contracts.

Congratulations for completely missing the point.

The point about old Arena ands Monitor material is that it was totally
uncommercial when it was first broadcast. While serving your BBC
apprenticeship you must have been off sick on the day they explined
to you all that one function of the BBC was to make totally uncommercial
programmes about the arts and culture to wean viewers away from the
more poplular programmming. To educate (uncommercial) and inform
(uncommercial), as well as entertain (commercial).

I'd guess you've not noticed things have changed from those days.

Plenty of commercial channels (ie paid for via subscription or adverts or
both) who educate and inform rather than entertain.

But perhaps you find being informed a chore?

Name some.

Freeview is full of channels featuring the same group of
animated talking heads wittering on about *forgotten

you don't mean those ?

While apart from interminable repeats of "Tales of the
Unexpected" and another group of animated talking heads
banging on ad nauseam about old film stars, the only actual "arts"
content on Sky Arts appears to be Melvyn Bragg congratulating
himself about about old editions of the "South Bank Show ".

But it's run on a shoestring and makes him pennies. Ok, a living for

in smoke.

and it doesn't scale. You can't re-master thousands of films that you end
up, individually, only showing once (or even twice).

How much effort is it to re-master a film? How many can one man do in a

You're just repeating what Dave and everybody else claims. All based
on a couple of newspapaer articles from what I can see.


and it doesn't scale.

Talking Pictures TV runs 24/7. BBC4 runs only 8 and a half hours a day
- 7.pm to 3.30 - Saturday night Sunday morning. You're right it doesn;t
scale !

Talking Pictures a.k.a Renown Films offers a whole catalogue of film
compiliations

https://www.renownfilms.co.uk/shop/

Many of them digitally remastered, many with added subtitles.

Jonathan Meades has made and is still making over 50 programmes for
the BBC. All of them innovative and challenging. The best the BBC
can manage is produce a 3 disc Jonathn Meades collection in 2008
containing 9 programmes plus an introduction.

And please don't give me any old nonsense about "rights".
When on his own website Meades re-directs people to a streaming
site featuring copies of his films reorded off air and uploaded
by viewers.

Again too right it doesn't scale !

I've got no objection whatosever to the BBC showing popular programmes
which appeal to the majority of viewers who pay the licence fee.
But as it is BBC4, as with all of the BBC's radio output costs relative
peanuts to provide. The BBC's remit is to both reflect the cultural
life of the UK and to provide a range of programming to suit all
tastes. Using BB4 as a dustbin for endless "Top of the Pops" repeats
when the BBC is sitting on an unmatched archive of material all
lying unused, does neither.
