The theme captain

Article Abstract:

UK television executive John Whiston became director of programming at Yorkshire-Tyne Tees TV in January 1998, after having worked for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) since 1983. Whiston is best known for developing youth entertainment at the BBC, with a successful string of themed-night shows to his credit. Yorkshire-Tyne Tees TV is hoping Whiston will inject a youthful approach into its schedule, by developing youth entertainment along similar lines as the BBC.

Fund farewell: Europe's revamped Media subsidy programme will pour more money into reconstructing the audiovisual industry next year, but this could mean less cash for prodcers

Article Abstract:

The Media programme is to be renamed Media II and will increase its budget by 55% to 256 million pounds sterling over the next five years. Jacques Demoly, Media programme head is planning changes focusing on training, development and distribution. The Commission's plans for Media II are unclear, but there is unlikely to be an emphasis on production funding.
