Re: Local TV
Thank you - Made in Cardiff TV gets less interesting if it is covering such a wide area.
The spin I saw ( no I do not recall were ) seemed to implie it was Cardiff only. |
Re: Local TV
From OFCOM's Statement on licencing local television:
1.5 The L-DTPS licence is only for a service carried on this local multiplex, i.e. on digital terrestrial television (DTT). L-DTPS licensees may wish to distribute their services on satellite and/or on cable and/or online, subject to commercial negotiations. A separate Television Licensable Content Service (TLCS) licence would be required for any such simulcasts. So, in other words, carriage on cable is subject to commercial agreement AND the TV company going to the additional expense of obtaining an additional licence for cable distribution.

Re: Local TV
City TV will be on the air via freeview next year. The BBC is contributing £25-40 million towards capital costs of building the TV infrastructure and up to £5 million a year over three years to acquire local content.

Re: Local TV
How on earth can the BBC afford that?

Re: Local TV
They can't its been forced on them. Someone feels that local TV will be the solution to everything, whereas in reality it will be a complete waste of money and will fail just like all previous attempts at local TV have
