Posted June 19, 200619 yr I'm not sure if this belongs here - in this forum thread or any other? It is related to this thread in that nearly everyone is introduced to music and charts via music played on radio stations. I've posted a few TV Audience Figures in the TV & Films thread - which have been fairly popular. So I thought that putting these up would be useful to some people here - they are directly related to music and the playlist charts and audience penetration. Although there's a lot of information which may be difficult to understand if you are not used to reading it - it is not that labour intensive because the data is only released every 3 months.

June 19, 200619 yr Thanks for the info. I'm laughing at Radio 1's figures, they are a having their backsides kicked by Radio 2 & even Radio 4 has overtaken them. But what do you expect when their Sunday chartshow is hosted by two amateurs' who know nothing about music, and a Breakfast DJ who likes the sound of his own voice & ego (Chris Evans minus the brain-cells) & barely plays any music. While their playlist is a joke - they A-list dodgy R'N'B & Dance tracks which barely scrape the Top40 while missing out listing obvious chart hits like Shakira & Sandi Thom. The best (and possibly only) good thing about Radio 1 now is Monday-Thursday evenings - at least they still have some DJ's left (step forward Zane Lowe, etc - even though I find his speaking voice annoying) with a passion for music.
June 19, 200619 yr Author Yes Radio 4 have overtaken Radio 1 in terms of % Share - because the average radio 4 listener is tuned in 3 hours more per week. Radio 1 has about 450k more listeners though. It's still a long way from the 19 % share of pre 1994.
June 20, 200619 yr Thanks dynamo - that's really interesting info What's the ALL BBC Network? it's the amount that listen to any BBC radio station.
June 20, 200619 yr it's the amount that listen to any BBC radio station. Well what's ALL BBC then? ... I can't work out what's the difference between ALL BBC and ALL BBC Network Radio then? :D
June 20, 200619 yr Author Well what's ALL BBC then? ... I can't work out what's the difference between ALL BBC and ALL BBC Network Radio then? :D All BBC Radio is 'all' BBC Radio - every BBC station - national, local, nations (Scotland, Wales & Ulster) and digital stations like 6 Music etc. BBC Network Radio are the pan British stations - Radios 1,2,3,4,5Live. These are traditionally called networks as they are heard around the UK from the network of transmitters. This also takes into account the digital channels 6 Music & BBC7. Asian Network is quasi national on AM/MW but also is on digital platforms - this is also included into BBC Network results. So in simple terms the 'BBC Network Radio' is everything bar the 'BBC Local/Regional' stations - which are the English county stations and national radio for Scotland, Wales and N.Ireland. I think this is right. Edited June 20, 200619 yr by dynamoe88
June 24, 200619 yr Those National DAB stations seem to be really struggling. Primetime Radio gas now closed down and Core is looking like it will be next to go.
July 5, 200618 yr All BBC Radio is 'all' BBC Radio - every BBC station - national, local, nations (Scotland, Wales & Ulster) and digital stations like 6 Music etc. BBC Network Radio are the pan British stations - Radios 1,2,3,4,5Live.

I think this is right. Thanks for the explanation, I didn't realise BBC radio had so many different parts to it :D I think they're all struggling to an extent - so many more places to listen to (and watch) music now - explains all the mergers in a way, but I don't like mergers - they're scarey :o :P
July 5, 200618 yr just as I expected I cannot make head or tail of it, :blink: Me too, just I didn't like to admit it ^_^
July 5, 200618 yr Highly strange number to me. The UK population is about 60Million, but total UK Radio "Total Listener" is 1054Million! So I guess that figure is individual listens? :unsure:
July 6, 200618 yr Author Yes the total UK population is about 60m. Although for listener figures they usually only take data to be published for the 15+ ages, sometimes 4+ (4+ for tv too). This works out at 49,377,000 approx. Now the % share of listening is 90% out of that 49.3m - this means that 10% have not listened once over the 3 months of the survey - that's the 44m figure. If you then multiply those who have listened in the 3 months with the number of hours that each listener usually listens each week (23.8) then that gives the total listened to hours each week: this comes to the 1,054,084,000 - so that's over 1 billion hours of of listening to UK radio each week. As for mergers - well yes it's a gripe for a lot of people (me too in some respects). The problem is that a lot of networking takes place. The regulator OFCOM won't let commercial radio do this in peak periods during the day, but in the evening, at night and more at weekends. This means that every station within an owned group will have the same networked programmes. If you happen to live south of Nottingham/Derby/Shropshire then most stations are owned by Gcap Radio - this leads to every station that neighbours each other to have the same output. Several years ago it would have been possible to tune around and listen to an out of area station with a different show - thereby in a sense extending listener choice. When you say that they all seem to be struggling - well that's true in a sense. The BBC has about 55% share of all listening. This 50-55% split to the BBC has been the case for 17 or so years. The thing is though commercial radio has seen station numbers treble in that time, whilst the BBC have only opened up 4 or 5 on FM or MW and they still can't eat into the BBC's figures - this must say something about commercial radio imo. Edited July 6, 200618 yr by dynamoe88
July 6, 200618 yr From what I can make out, Radio 2 is the most popular, followed by Radio 4 and Radio 1 ( :puke2: ). Thanks for the info!
