"By Spring next year, viewers in England will be able to receive BBC One HD for their region and not have to tune away to watch their local news and programming. This, coupled with upgrades to BBC channels that aren’t currently available on some devices in HD, will mean viewers will get a more easily accessible, better quality experience when watching BBC programmes from early next year."

New research from PwC shows the impact of the BBC in places like Bristol📍
The creative hub here, home to @bbcstudios' NHU, has seen a considerable level of growth from BBC investment, with a larger BBC presence amplifying the local creative economy.
ALT Across the UK
£700m additional BBC spend outside of London is expected to result in around 4750 new creative businesses and 45,000 additional jobs in the creative industries outside of London by 2027/28
ALT In Bristol, employment in the creative industries between 2015-2020 grew by 74%. A 1% increase in the size of a creative hub increases the share of local workers employed in the creative sector by 1.7 percentage points. In Bristol this is around 457 jobs.
