* 1930 – BBC Radio announces that there is no news on that day.

The story of the men's claims was covered by many major news networks, including BBC, CNN, ABC News, and Fox News.

BBC News ( also referred to as the BBC News Channel ) is the BBC's 24-hour rolling news television network in the United Kingdom.

In April 2008, the channel was renamed " BBC News " as part of a £ 550, 000 rebranding of the BBC's news output, complete with a new studio and presentation.

Its sister services, BBC World was also renamed as " BBC World News " while the national news bulletins became BBC News at One, BBC News at Six and BBC News at Ten.

The BBC had run the international news channel BBC World for two and a half years prior to the launch of BBC News 24 on 9 November 1997.

Sky News had had a free hand with domestic news for over eight years ( since 5 February 1989 ) and being owned by News International their papers were used to criticise the BBC for extending its news output.

A further announcement by Head of television news Peter Horrocks came at the same time as Bakhurst's appointment in which he outlined his plan to provide more funding and resources for the channel and shift the corporation's emphasis regarding news away from the traditional BBC One bulletins and across to the rolling news channel.

The BBC News Channel moved from the Studio N8 set ( now home to BBC World News ) to what was the home of the national news in Studio N6, allowing the Channel to share its set with the BBC News at One and the BBC News at Ten – with other bulletins moving to studio TC7.

It is expected that the BBC News Channel will relocate, along with other BBC news services including BBC World News to the newly refurbished Broadcasting House in late 2012 / early 2013, after completion of the new television news studios has taken place and it will be relaunched.

Lacking the lavish production values and visual spectacle of its Hollywood equivalents, Elstree Calling is now something of a curio item interesting chiefly for two reasons: Alfred Hitchcock ( then contracted to BIP ) was one of several directors employed on the production ; and the film is quite possibly the first ever to refer directly to television ( the linking narrative concerns a television broadcast of the revue, some six years before the BBC began regular television transmissions ).

At its peak, the Electron was the third best selling micro in the United Kingdom, and total lifetime game sales for the Electron exceeded those of the BBC Micro.

The hardware of the BBC Micro was emulated by a single customized ULA chip designed by Acorn in conjunction with Ferranti.

It had feature limitations such as being unable to output more than one channel of sound, ( and provided fewer Envelope-shaping options ) where the BBC was capable of three-way polyphony ( plus one noise channel ) and the inability to provide teletext mode.

Due to needing two accesses to each chip instead of one, and the complications of the video hardware also needing access, reading or writing RAM was much slower than on the BBC Micro.

The Electron was developed during 1983 as a cheap sibling for the BBC Micro with the intention of capturing the low-cost Christmas sales market for that year.

This was a blow from which the machine never fully recovered, although games sales for it would ultimately outstrip those of the BBC Micro.

Because the WD1770 is capable of single density mode and uses the same IBM360 derived floppy disc format as the Intel 8271 found in the BBC Micro, it was also possible to run a DFS filing system with an alternate ROM, such as the P. R. E. S AP4 interface.

This behavior was the same as on the BBC Micro.

Of the capabilities present in the BBC Micro but absent from the Electron, the teletext-style mode 7 was particularly conspicuous because of the very low memory usage in that mode ( just less than 1 kB ) and the high number of BBC programs that used it.

The first used the same graphics processor as the BBC Micro in mode 7 — the SAA5050 — but used software to ensure that it was fed with the correct graphics data.

Like the BBC Micro, the Electron was constrained by limited memory resources.

On November 9, 2008, a radio adaptation of the novel was broadcast on BBC Radio 3, starring Robert Lonsdale as Paul Bäumer and Shannon Graney as Katczinsky.

Another instrumental called " Brother " was used as the theme to the BBC Radio 1 Top 20 / 40 when Tom Browne / Simon Bates presented the programme in the 1970s.

The wave of arson in the South Bronx in the 1960s and 1970s inspired the observation that " The Bronx is burning ": in 1974 it was the title of both a New York Times editorial and a BBC documentary film.

Ironically, it was Hoyle who coined the phrase that came to be applied to Lemaître's theory, referring to it as " this big bang idea " during a BBC Radio broadcast in March 1949.

His last game was against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on 28 April 1973, and before the game the BBC cameras for Match of the Day captured the Chelsea chairman handing Charlton a commemorative cigarette case.

The service was launched in 1999 as BBC Text.

It was relaunched in November 2001 under the BBCi brand and operated under this name until 2008, when it was once more rebranded as BBC Red Button.

BBC Text originally launched on digital terrestrial services in 1999, and was later introduced on satellite and cable platforms.

A digital text service had been available since the launch of digital terrestrial television in November 1998, but the BBC Text service was not publicly launched until November 1999, due to a lack of availability of compatible set-top boxes.

BBC Text was considerably more advanced than Ceefax, in that it offered a richer visual interface, with the possibility of photographic images and designed graphics ( as opposed to Ceefax graphics which were composed of simple blocks of colour ).

Although the experimental service was publicly available, there were no digital set-top boxes or receivers available on the market which could decode the signal and the service was only presented to the public via BBC demonstrations using prototype receivers.
