WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME INTERIOR DESIGN MASTERS IS BACK

award ceremonies are long enough

Accidentally put the BAFTA TV Awards in my calendar for the entire month of May, which would have been terrifying.

This needs to be confirmed for free-to-air television. Not behind a £30 paywall.

Must Watch at 1pm today:

- Reviewing Euphoria Season 3 on HBO Max
- Mint on BBC One
- Margot's Got Money Problems on Apple TV

Plus your excellent emails at MustWatch@bbc.co.uk

heard things lost its way under the disney+ balamory era

BBC Search result. Balamory (2002-05)

Enjoying that BBC iPlayer has separated Balamory into two different eras like they did with Doctor Who.

Would the BBC need to cut 2,000 jobs if everyone paid their license fee?

Text reads: “New scheme invests in queer accountability journalism and LGBTQIA+ journalists.” Smaller text below reads: “Queer reporters, make a queer newsroom.” At the top, a smartphone mockup displays a webpage titled “Understand the LGBTQIA+ news: Supreme Court ruling changes the landscape for Trans+ rights in the UK.”

Investigative journalism is how we fight back. We’re backing more queer journalists to deliver it

Here’s how 👇🧵

Apparently upgrading to a new system for on air contributions, but nothing communicated so far.

yep i've had nothing since 1st april and only found out today that we'll get new logins apparently

there honestly should be government legislation that means companies use a singular / similar payment portal

freelance payment systems are the worst of all worlds but things that used to work then suddenly stopping and then not working are even worse

lovely to know the bbc contributor payments have changed their payment system as of 1st April but has told no one and has stopped all payments since then with no warning. spectacular.

None needed

Just said “demon twink” on the radio.

😢 the greatest longitudinal study and incredible TV

it did continue until 2020 apparently

It's not only one of the greatest documentary series ever made, it also feels like it comes from a different age entirely.

I doubt a broadcaster would commit to such an ambitious series today.

Ian Katz is to stand down as Channel 4's Chief Content Officer.

It's been anticipated for a while. He'll be leaving in October.

ITV has announced 70 Up, the documentary following contributors every seven years, is to come to an end.

The director Michael Apted died in 2021. The Up film series has aired since 1964. Final episodes this year.

Very true

BBC Plans 2,000 Layoffs In Major Cost-Cutting Drive The BBC is planning to make 2,000 job cuts in one of its most brutal cost-cutting efforts to date.

Absolutely brutal all-staff call currently taking place at the BBC. Up to 2,000 job cuts coming in Sept. BBC bosses painting bleak picture of finances. "Our funding model has reached end of life," interim DG Rhodri Talfan Davies said, per one insider. deadline.com/2026/04/bbc-...

yep, as the shows that they then launched were hard to find online. but I think the time feels right now, considering the linear views are so low.

With the (very sad) BBC cuts announced today, wonder what is stopping them moving BBC Three and BBC Four online, considering that so much on these channels these days are essentially repeats and few new programmes.

"Sources said Talfan Davies and BBC CFO Bérangère Michel painted a bleak picture of the corporation’s finances. They said it was unsustainable that 94% of the UK population use the BBC every month, but fewer than 80% pay the £180 annual licence fee."

“Our funding model has reached end of life.”
