like you re going to save that much money, then. there is significant savings. i mean, this is we re delivering value for licence fee payers. this is a value for all project. but also underpinning it is world class journalism and our commitment to delivering for all audiences world class, impartial journalism, which we know they value and they want from the bbc. now, we ve already heard from some uk licence fee payers who are unhappy that they feel they re getting a worse service. essentially, it s a takeover of the uk channel by world news, isn t it, with some opt outs? it s not a takeover. i ll go back to what i said earlier in the sense that during the day, there are two feeds a globalfeed and the uk feed. sometimes, they re combined. on any given weekday, there s 7.5 hours of uk facing content built into the schedule for uk viewers before you even think about the combined feed. and it could be that a uk story might be the top story globally on a given day and also, obviously si
channel, not necessarily through bbc one, for example, or radio 5 live or bbc two. so, for news nhannel viewers in the uk, that s 7.5 hours of premium uk facing programming and content built in every weekday before you get to the combined feed. now, what happens, this is what a lot of viewers wonder, when you have a big global story like an election in a country, say, in south america or africa, and there s a big uk story, maybe a big political story that s breaking here, or a story like a major storm or floods that is really specific to the uk, and they re happening at the same time? what will uk viewers get? well, again, i can take you through that. if we had a big uk story that really didn t feel relevant to the combined global feed, we can go our separate way with the uk feed. also, we re going to be introducing single story news streams into our coverage as well, and that s another layer of uk coverage that we ll be able to deliver. how does that work? so, you could see that,
a really exciting phase for bbc news with the news.with the new channel. we re gradually bringing in the changes during april and early may. as you ve said at the beginning there, some of the output will be combined. and so the way to sort of understand the channel is there are two main feeds. there s a global feed, and there is a uk feed, and at some point they re combined, but at other times they re separate. so, for example, just to give you a sense of things between 6am 11am, every day, every weekday, uk viewers will see bbc breakfast and then the nicky campbell phone in. and also then during the day, the one, six and ten o clock news will also be on the uk feed. and also newsnight is going to be introduced onto the uk feed as well. so these are all programmes they could be consuming on other parts of the bbc output? absolutely, but as we know, people will consume in different ways and some people willjust consume bbc news through the news
who are unhappy that they feel they re getting a worse service. essentially it s a takeover of the uk channel by world news, isn t it, with some opt outs? it s not a takeover. i ll go back to what i said earlier in the sense that during the day there are two feeds, a global feed and the uk feed. sometimes they re combined. on any given weekday, there s 7.5 hours of uk facing content built into the schedule for uk viewers before you even think about the combined feed. and it could be that a uk story might be the top story globally on a given day, and also obviously significant uk stories will be in that combined rundown anyway. and because we re using new technology and we re innovating, we are going to have other ways, and other flexible ways, where we can deliver uk stories for audiences when we need to. so, for example, we ve been rehearsing that and piloting this over the last few weeks, and i already know sitting here today there are stories next
