The site’s aim is to compile details of every programme ever broadcast to London from 1922-1999. To fulfil this objective the site relies on crowdsourcing. The Database holds details of some three million programmes from 27 services
transmitted to London between Tuesday, 14 November 1922 and Friday, 31st December 1999. The user can click on a specific year/month/day and find a list of radio and television broadcasts. The final entry in 1999 covers BBC1, BBC2, Channel 4 and Channel 5 and BBC Radio. The project is ongoing and the coverage of channels is incomplete and not consistent from year to year. The site aims to conclude the project by November 2015.
