Film Network, the BBC’s online short film showcase is also available on mobile. The mobile version offers very short films, specifically designed for mobile devices. To access the service type the address - www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/ents/filmnetwork -into your phone's internet browser. Alternatively, if you are based in the UK, you can follow these simple steps:

step one
Text the words FILM NETWORK to 81010
The BBC will send you a text message (service text message) within 5 mins.

In most cases, the message will arrive in your normal text message inbox.

However, some phones have a WAP Push inbox where the service message will be stored. This can often be found under the Services menu item.

step two
When the message arrives, you should open it and select the link.

The link address may look like a normal internet address.

It will prompt you to make a connection. You should select Yes.

step three
You're in! Don't forget to save a bookmark to the site on your phone.

If you are not sure how to do that, consult your phone's handbook.

The address for BBC WAP is www.bbc.co.uk/mobile

Take a look at this demo of how it looks on your phone.
