BBC Four
|
Launched in 2002, BBC Four is the most high-brow of the BBC TV channels. It is available on digital platforms, including Freeview. BBC4 exists to provide alternatives to the programmes on mainstream TV and thus the comedies found on this channel tend to be quite niche in scope. As BBC Four is focused on arts and factual series, it does not have much room for comedy - however, so far, it does have a very high hit rate in regards to the original comedy that it has commissioned. The Thick Of It and Lead Balloon both started life on this channel. |
