The BBC’s flagship news and current affairs programme revamped its website at the beginning of 2009. It now provides information on the programme’s on-screen team in their new ‘reporter profiles’; wider issues can be discussed on the team blog and reporters Jane Corbin, John Sweeney and Raphael Rowe blog about the challenging situations they face in their work; executive producer Tom Giles provides an insight into the editorial dilemmas and pitfalls which pepper the process of making the programmes. The ‘About Panorama’ section provides a history of the programme (the world’s longest-running investigative programme) and a short film on the first 50 years and classic clips from the last six decades. Episodes continue to be streamed for a full 12 months after transmission and written details of programmes are given going back to 2000.

This growing resource of materials is aimed at media studies students and hails from the British Film Institute. It includes several thousand individual items, including biographies of British film and television personnel, including actors, writers, directors, producers, composers, cinematographers. These can be searched by name or via an alphabetical list. The database incorporates some material from the recently published Encyclopedia of British Film and from the forthcoming Reference Guide to British and Irish Film Directors and evenly covers both television and film. It also includes stills, posters, scripts and other fascinating items. One of its most exciting features is the vast amount of material that can be viewed on the site, much of which comes from the BFI’s National Film and Television Archive. This is only available to schools, colleges, universities and public libraries on their premises and not elsewhere. These include extensive clips from rare and obscure film and television titles as well as entire episodes from such classic TV shows as Fawlty Towers. The streamed material can be viewed with QuickTime, Real and Windows Media Player and cannot be downloaded for copyright reasons.

This video subscription service offers very high quality QuickTime movies. The very high resolution samples on this site are of quite spectacular quality, but will require at 150mbs of free memory to play or the computer will crash. A few clips are available free, but otherwise a subscription is required. The movies are organised by genre (people, places, music, events etc.).

This provides a week of listings on UK movie channels such as Sky Movies, Film Four, TCM and The Studio as well as movie reviews and movie trivia and a fairly large section devoted to film trailers which will require MediaPlayer to view. The site can best be described as functional, but it completely lacks the breadth and depth of other online TV guides such as Digiguide, What’s on the BBC and it doesn’t even come close to the BUFVC’s own TRILT service.
