Pod koniec XX w. europejskie publiczne stacje telewizyjne musiały zawalczyć o publiczność z coraz liczniejszymi stacjami komercyjnymi. Rozwiązaniem miały być prawdziwe historie z życia ludzi, które zapożyczały styl i środki dramaturgiczne od seriali fikcyjnych, jak np. docusoap – telewizyjny gatunek hybrydowy łączący właściwości dokumentalizmu obserwacyjnego z cechami opery mydlanej. Realizatorzy docusoap wykorzystali warunki, jakie pojawiły się w produkcji i strukturę ramówki tak, by nowy gatunek dostarczał stacjom jak największej liczby widzów, czyli odpowiednich wskaźników oglądalności i wysokich ocen, od których zależało zainteresowanie reklamodawców kupowaniem czasu antenowego. W europejskich stacjach telewizyjnych nastąpiła moda na docusoap, która nie ominęła także Polski. Autorka opisuje okoliczności powstania, rozkwit oraz kres docusoap w Wielkiej Brytanii i Niemczech oraz telenoweli dokumentalnej w Polsce. Porównuje sytuację produkcyjno-nadawczą, znaczenie i rolę tych gatunków oraz wskazuje narodowe różnice w tym zakresie.

At the end of the 20th century, European public television stations had to fight for an audience with a growing number of commercial stations. The solution was to be found in true stories from the lives of people, which borrow style and dramaturgy from fictional series, such as docusoap – a hybrid television genre that combines the properties of observational documentalism with the features of the soap opera. The makers of docusoap took advantage of the conditions that appeared in television production and the structure of the TV schedule, so that the new genre would provide stations with the largest number of viewers, i.e. appropriate viewership rates and high ratings, which determined advertisers’ interest in buying airtime. In European television stations there was a fashion for docusoap, which did not bypass Poland. The author describes the circumstances of the creation, the flourishing and the end of docusoap in Great Britain and Germany and documentary soap opera in Poland. She compares the production and broadcasting situation, as well as the significance and role of docusoap and docu-drama, pointing to national differences in this area.

During the summer of 2012, and to coincide with the Olympics, BBC2 broadcast a series called The Hollow Crown, an adaptation of Shakespeare’s second tetralogy of English history plays. The BBC commission was conceived as part of the Cultural Olympiad which accompanied Britain’s successful hosting of the Games that summer. I discuss the financial, technical, aesthetic, and political choices made by the production team, not only in the context of the Coalition government (and its attacks on the BBC) but also in the light of theatrical and film tradition. I argue that the inclusion or exclusion of two key scenes suggest something more complex and balanced that the usual nationalism of the plays'; rather, the four nations are contextualised to comprehend and acknowledge the regions - apropos not only in the Olympic year, but in 2014's referendum on the Union of the crowns of England/Wales and Scotland.

This study delves into the emerging field of solutions journalism, which strives to report on social issues by highlighting responses to them, while maintaining a critical stance. Specifically, this study investigates how solutions journalism guidelines are understood and implemented in a specific newsroom at the BBC that specializes in producing solution-focused social media videos aimed primarily at younger audiences. To this end, the study adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining content analysis of the BBC’s solutions video stories with semi-structured interviews with editors and journalists. The analysis reveals a significant disparity between the team’s understanding of solutions journalism as a practice that thoroughly scrutinizes solutions and the actual content of the stories they produce. Notably, over half of the sample videos fail to include at least one of the following essential elements that ensure the critical presentation of solutions: the identification of the cause of the problem, an acknowledgment of the limitations of the proposed solutions, or the provision of hard evidence of the effectiveness of the solutions. The findings suggest that various factors in the production process hinder the implementation of these guidelines, including the reliance on audience metrics, the need to comply with Facebook’s algorithm, and the perceived preferences of social media audiences. The production process is subject to three competing demands: maintaining a predominantly positive tone, creating an interesting story, and presenting a simple narrative. Consequently, the presentation of solutions leaves little room for critical evaluation by the audience.

Through characters who openly express distress over imagined pains, “Jerome at the BBC” treats BBC’s Three Men in a Boat as a playful critique of heroic masculinity, or what the paper defines as confident cognisant agency. Airing in 1975, BBC’s adaptation is released after the media ascension of James Bond and in the heyday of tough Hollywood heroes, bold figures who refuse to complain about, let alone give in, to physical pain – unlike Jerome’s men. Jerome’s original and its BBC adaptation are layered comical texts. By channelling Jerome’s critique of the colonial, seafaring male into contemporary notions of the Hollywood-hero type, this paper examines the BBC film’s boisterous lack of masculine agency, the quiet parody of action sequences, and the gingerly movement towards a conclusion that does not bang, but whimpers. Moreover, the paper asserts that the humour also functions on a less grand level, by being an effective caricature of human behaviour – a healthy dose of cultural self-mockery. Furthermore, through revealing moments, by the telefilm’s end, the characters do not simply remain caricatures to be laughed at, but become identifiable and relatable human beings.
