Christmas jingles:
All of the jingles are really merry and uplifting. They appeal to everyone and attract people to whatever they are advertising. It is catchy and fast tempo.
^^ This was Sky Radio Christmas 2017 and Sky Radio Christmas 2012.
Radio 1 & 4:
The two radios cover the news, but BBC 4 more than 1. BBC 4 is more for elderly people. Depending on the sub categories or episodes, it is mainly aimed at elderly women as they are on cooking, gardening etc. Whereas BBC 1 is more for younger generations as not much news is covered - only suitable and relevant to the target audiences - and what they will be interested in. BBC 4 covers more serious and formal topics whereas BBC 1 is more fun and laid-back.
Radio 1 presenters are all young men and women such as Scott Milld and Annie Mac. This is beneficial as the audience will relate more and the presenters will know what to do and say to their audience.
Whereas radio 4 presenters are older such as John Humphrys and Edward Stourton where the same applies - their target audience will relate more as their presenters are of a similar age to them.

ReplyDeleteYou've written some good notes about BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 4 - these will be useful if you're asked to discuss why Radio content is different.
You've summarised Commercial, National and Local radio stations towards the end of the post. In a comment below, please explain why BBC Radio One is NOT a commercial station (try and include the PSB in your answer).
