Setting out our ambitions for 2012 3:13pm on 28 Nov 2009 Probably worded that wrong, I didn't mean 'disappearing', I meant 'reduced' as a result of the 2012 Olympics (same goes for budget reduction for other sports).

After all, the money has got to come from somewhere, doesn't it? I presume if the 2012 Olympics will have more money compared to 2008, then that money has to come from somewhere...
Sharing iPlayer data 09:21am on 28 Nov 2009 Question:

Will be able to see the data for every programme, and will we be able to see it when we want, i.e. click on a link on an iPlayer page which says "See how many other people are watching this video" or something of that nature?

Very good though.
Points of View and HD Picture Quality: a response 8:44pm on 26 Nov 2009 It appears Digital Spy has picked up on this thread with its own news story:

Setting out our ambitions for 2012 6:23pm on 26 Nov 2009 Roger,

While I appreciate that the Olympics will be a big part of 2012, I seriously hope that the BBC will not whitewash us with Olympic programmes. There are other things in the world that are going on apart from the Olympics - I'm certain viewers in Wales, Scotland or Northern Island may not wish to be 'bombarded' with Olympic content. I don't think it'd be right either to have a lot of content - in my view, let the publicity drive itself - you don't need to show dozens of adverts for it like Beijing, it'd serve no purpose as the public will already know about the games.

Also a question: Is the 2012 budget coming out of BBC Sport's overall budget? If so, will it be eating into other programmes budget and airtime for 2012? I fear that as a result Wimbledon and Formula 1's airtime may find themselves massively reduced, particularly the latter, as the budget has disappeared. I hope you don't 'squash' other sports down to occupy the Games.
BBC F1 film wins prestigious award 7:04pm on 25 Nov 2009 @the3douches - the current intro was made in mind with a future HD switch. I'm almost certain that there won't be a new intro.
BBC F1 film wins prestigious award 6:21pm on 25 Nov 2009 Nice job guys! :)
Points of View and HD Picture Quality: a response 6:10pm on 25 Nov 2009 Quote from Andy: "It's currently going through a few people for checking - grammar and spelling - and and yes I did start it around mid September."

Yeah, it's probably gone through Danielle as well so the things she doesn't want to get published DON'T get published...
A sporting balance 9:55pm on 01 Nov 2009 May I ask why Barbara's blogs are being moved over here - I prefer them in the Sports Editors section, this is a SPORT blog after all.
Farewell to a brilliant season - and roll on 2010 6:59pm on 01 Nov 2009 Brilliant season Jake! Great having it 'home'!

Only one thing - F1 tends to 'disappear' between now and March. I'd like myself for the Beeb to cover testing just a little bit more... get my drift? ;)
A day in the life of the Head of BBC HD 11:22pm on 31 Oct 2009 Post #20: There is no HD feed for Abu Dhabi, the information you have received must be incorrect.
