Getting down to the nitty-gritty of our internal data structure we'd probably say that the International World Service 'Top of the Pops' and the BBC One 'Top of the Pops' http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00704hg ARE different programme 'brands' but belonging to the uber 'franchise' of 'Top of the Pops'... although we don't have 'franchise' in our data structure yet.
It would be the same for the 'franchise' Doctor Who and it's various incarnations: BBC One's 'Doctor Who': http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006q2x0 Radio 7's 'Doctor Who': http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b009szrh BBC Three's 'Doctor Who Confidential': http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006q2xb etc, etc... _______________________ Jamie Tetlow Designer BBC Future Media & Technology for Audio & Music Interactive 718, Henry Wood House, W1B 3DF T: 020 776 54671 M: 07989 987239 Working on: DynPub & APS - Dynamic Publishing - Automated Programme Support http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes On 5/1/09 10:47, "Gareth Davis" <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> From: [email protected] >> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Cridland >> Sent: 31 December 2008 22:15 >> To: [email protected] >> Subject: Re: [backstage] Your ideas are now finally welcomed >> >> On Wed, Dec 24, 2008 at 1:11 PM, Gareth Davis <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >>> It still still being made, just not for the tellybox :) >>> >>> http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/top_of_the_pops.shtml >> >> So, why doesn't it appear in >> http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00704hg/upcoming >> >> Surely it should - it's the same brand (owned by BBC ONE, but you still >> broadcast a radio version) >> >> -- >> http://james.cridland.net/ | http://notatallbad.ltd.uk/legal_info/ >> >> > Technical answer is: We have quite a few English programmes that are not > broadcast on the World Service English for UK network, and as all > international networks are currently out of scope for /programmes, they do not > appear in /programmes or iPlayer. > -- > Gareth Davis | Production Systems Specialist > World Service Future Media, Digital Delivery Team - Part of BBC Global News > Division > 8 http://www.bbcworldservice.com/ <http://www.bbcworldservice.com/> + 702NE > Bush House, Strand, London, WC2B 4PH > ( 02 71285 (internal) ( +44 (0)20 7557 1285 (external) : > [email protected] > > >
