I'm very pleased. A year or more ago I suggested that games could be important for Bird, but was told it was not in their sights. I remember a remark from someone reporting on the grand games tournament (I forget what it is called) saying that with a hundred players how difficult it was to be looking at where the significant action was. Several streams & a really fast editor should address that.

A very cautious market response so far. I don't think people realise how big this could be.

riot games is a monster, they define esports

I imagine this to be a big deal with the games Riot have! Also they are going to be releasing 'valorant' which is meant to rival the Fortnite game. Great deal from Blackbird!

Hopefully a Fortnite in which Whisper and Riot have signed shows the post COVID interest is now converting.

bisho4 The alternative means are clearly not working if they feel the need to make a public announcement that they will be showing more repeats. I happen to be a keen supporter of a free to air national broadcast service just not the way it is currently run.

BBC could save money and just relocate to the Guardian

[bisho4] 16/6/2020 23:09

The BBC are already using alternative means of making programmes, but don't let that get in the way of your personal bias ;)

Let's keep the talk on BIRD please, and leave politics off the board.

[chriscallen] 16/6/2020 22:49

The news is that BBC are now going to run repeats because Covid 19 has interrupted their filming schedules - its taken them from 23/03 to realise this might happen if they didn't look at alternative means of making programmes?

"She jacked in her job in March and planned to holiday in Italy until May."

Also said she expected role was going anyway, so why not wait and collect a redundancy cheque???

[sideshowbull] 16/6/2020 21:25

How BBC and actually any councils are allowed to carry on beggars belief, I saw a semi local council budget it's on spreadsheet!


Lol
