BBC 3- T.V Show profile



T.V Show- Russell Howard's Good News



Russell Howard is presenting his all new T.V series known as... " Russell Howard's Good News". This is a British comedy and topical news show. This show is hosted by non-other than Russell Howard himself where he offers commentary over weekly based news but, included guest appearances of famous celebrities as well as those who have been featured in the media recently. This show has been made by an independent production company called "Avalon Television' and is produced by Mark Iddon and many more. This show also is broadcasted on "Comedy Central" and "Dave". Howard often uses sketches, clips taken from the internet or stand-ups, to derive comedy from the story being told to the audience. These stories have been categorised in to many genres such as-
 

  • Big News (begins regular show, following the early series)
  • Sports
  • Celebrity
  • Society
  • Crime and Punishment
  • Politics (UK, World, and Weird)
  • Art and Culture
  • Animals and more

BBC 3's Profile:

BBC is seen to appeal to a young age group meaning that their core target audience would be teenagers. I think that their content will attract the ages from 16-45 year-olds as some content viewed on this channel can appeal to an older audience. Due to the channel appealing to mostly a younger age group it is therefore low-brow. Not only this but, the channel airs from 7pm onwards which is pre-watershed hours but, shows don't immediately come on, first it is a quick 60 second news feed then a show will air. The reason why BBC 3 airs on such late hours could be because the shows (such as Family Guy) are seen to appeal to an older age group therefore, children wouldn't be able to view this content. However, most of this channels content that it airs to the viewers are mainly aimed or are related to the youth culture. Content such as news or advertisements are not related to adult content but, are used to attract the youth which therefore, clarifies that BBC 3's main audience is the late teens as a majority of its content are used to aim at them.
