3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Do you think that disadvantages you in their recommender systems?

I meant not taking the revenue sharing.

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Sorry, I am speaking out of turn here, so I am trying to be as quick as possible. Just to check, everything you just said about YouTube, does that also apply to Meta and to TikTok?

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Sorry, it was a rhetorical question.

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

So, there is your half, but there is also their half. So if they are not getting any remuneration for showing your content, do you think that helps you in the algorithm?

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Isn’t there another question as well? So what is it, 55:45?

I wanted to follow up very quickly on that question about ad revenue on YouTube. Obviously, people on YouTube are used to there being ads. Almost all content must have pre-roll and mid-roll ads, and so on. Do you consider you are not allowed to have revenue? The viewer has not gone to a BBC property. They have gone to

I am sorry to slightly press you. Does the data tell you anything? Is there a benefit or a disbenefit? In the olden days when someone watched an hour’s worth or an hour and a half’s worth or whatever it was, there was a variety. Does that matter?

Although you can still just binge on a single programme on iPlayer.

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Does the data or research tell you anything about the relative benefit or disbenefit of binge watching a single show with 10 episodes versus having a line of varied content, including a bit of animation, a bit of live action, a little bit of news, old-fashioned channels, what we used to call a channel?

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Sorry, I cut across you. You were just handing over to Kate to talk about inputs.

16
3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

I wonder as a follow-up—I don’t expect you to have this in front of you—you might be able to give us something quantified about the change over time from live action to cartoon or whatever other formats. That would be quite interesting.

3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Presumably that is a different calculation now in a world where people are selecting individual pieces of content to watch. If you thought, “I have got this kid for an hour” it is easier to mix in a cartoon that they are just going to enjoy with a little bit of let’s tell them about vegetables or something, because kid

Good morning, everyone. We all remember great children’s telly. Some of it is because it is just good entertainment and some of it is just it keeps you busy, keeps you occupied, but then also for some output there is an educational and developmental benefit. There is the famous “Sesame Street” effect. What mix do you a

Which table is that? You said, “A voice at the table.”

11
10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

I was trying to get at something a bit lower level. Trying to put in front of young people the range of opportunities is a long-term issue. I thought you were saying that Skills England could play a role in making young people more aware of these varied routes, but you went on to talk about a sector table which is poss

10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

That is possible already.

10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

Did you mention to Baroness Smith any worries about the removal of public funding for level 7 apprenticeships for people aged 22 or above, like heritage consultants, conservation architects, or the archaeology specialist masters?

34
10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

How would it do that?

10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

But in evaluating individual projects, you do not know the answer to that question. Project managers can answer that question after the event. Would you have done this anyway? They are not going to say in the application, “We will do this anyway.” You will be applying criteria such as the demographics of the postcode r
