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.

The channel launched as BBC News 24 on 9 November 1997 at 17: 30 as part of the BBC's foray into digital domestic television channels, becoming the first competitor to Sky News, which had been running since 1989.

Since then, with several relaunches, an increase in funding and resources from the BBC and improvements in digital television technology, the channel has been able to diversify content, with two minute looped bulletins available to view via BBC Red Button, BBC News Online and the BBC's mobile website, alongside individual weather and sport bulletins.

In May 2007, the channel became available for UK viewers to view through the BBC News website through a live stream.

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.

In more recent times, Boudica has been the subject of numerous documentaries, including some by Discovery Channel, History International Channel ( now known as H2 ), and the BBC.

On 21 April 2008, BBC News 24 was renamed BBC News on the channel itself – but is referred to as the BBC News Channel on other BBC services.

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.

With domestic news, the correspondent first records a " generic minute " summary ( for use by all stations and channels ) and then priority is to report on BBC Radio 5 Live, then on the BBC News Channel and any other programmes that are on air.

During major breaking news events, the BBC News Channel has been broadcast on BBC One ; examples of special broadcasts include the 11 September 2001 attacks, 7 July 2005 London bombings, the capture of Saddam Hussein, and the death of Osama bin Laden.

During the Summer, the hour long programme News 24 Sunday was broadcast both on BBC One and the BBC News Channel at 09: 00, to replace The Andrew Marr Show, which is off air.

Bulletins on BBC One moved into a new set in January 2003 although retained the previous ivory Lambie-Nairn titles until February 2004.

In 2000, the Solid Steel show moved to BBC London.

Anderson moved to the BBC in 1996 and the show's name changed to Clive Anderson All Talk and was aired on BBC One.

He moved in to broadcasting, working at the BBC, firstly working as a pundit on Match of the Day before he went on to present the flagship show.

In 1960 he made his first radio commentary in the United Kingdom at the BBC, after which he moved into television.

Repeats of the British series moved to BBC America in April 2006 ; however, the network has not shown any episodes taped before 1994.

After two series of The Frost Report on the BBC, totalling 26 half-hour episodes, Frost moved to ITV after helping to set up London Weekend Television.

Following rehearsals, production moved to BBC Television Centre where the remaining scenes were recorded in two blocks ; the first between 21 May 1979 and 22 May 1979 and second between 3 June 1979 and 5 June 1979.

The ATV operations moved to Elstree and Borehamwood ( now BBC studios ) and the BBC News department, which was the only unit remaining at " Ally Pally " after BBC Television Centre was opened in the 1950s, moved to White City, west London in September 1969.

Caesar then went on to get his first " paid gig " on the Rod Lucas Show on BBC Radio Kent and shortly afterwards they both moved to the newly created Invicta Radio and, in a similar manner to BBC Radio 1 presenter Steve Wright, copied a style from American DJ Rick Dees that has subsequently become known worldwide as the ' Zoo Format '.

The show first aired on CBBC on BBC One and was a children's sitcom based on the lives of the group who had moved to Miami in search of fame in America.

When the BBC lost Neighbours to Channel 5 in January 2008, it moved into the Australian soap's old slot of 1: 45pm.

After the closure of Pebble Mill, BBC Birmingham moved to a much smaller production base in Birmingham City Centre which had no studio space for the show.

In light of this, the show moved to the new BBC Drama Village development in Selly Oak, Birmingham, with the transition between locations achieved on screen by an explosion destroying the Riverside practice in March 2005 for the fifth anniversary of the series and the surgery moving to a new specially constructed set, The Mill Health Centre, named after the series ' original production home.

BBC Radio 4 dramatised all of the novels from 1993-2001 with June Whitfield as Miss Marple.

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

The total number of lines exposed via the Cartridge port almost matched those from the 1MHz bus of the BBC.

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 Electron is widely misquoted as operating at 1. 79 MHz after measurements derived from speed testing against the thoroughly 2 MHz BBC Micro for various pieces of ' common software '

In the UK, the BBC Micro based OBBS software, available from Pace for use with their modems, optionally allowed for colour and graphics using the Teletext based graphics mode available on that platform.

On 18 November 2008 the band released The BBC Sessions, which features songs from the period of 1996 – 2001 ( including the last recordings featuring Isobel Campbell before she left the band ), along with a second disc featuring a recording of a live performance in Belfast from Christmas 2001.

Scott Mills presented his show from 4: 00 pm to 7: 00 pm live from the BBC Bubble in Edinburgh, as did Nick Grimshaw with his show at 10: 00 pm.

For example, the BBC website, which had previously been called BBC Online, took on the BBCi brand from 2001, displaying an i-bar across the top of every page, offering a category-based navigation: Categories, TV, Radio, Communicate, Where I Live, A-Z Index, and a search.

From 2008, the BBC gradually began to drop the BBCi name from its digital interactive TV services also, replacing it with the name BBC Red Button.

As a major part of the BBC News department, the channel is based at and broadcast from the News Centre within BBC Television Centre in West London.
