| 3251 | THIERRY DETAILLE | Head of distribution Ventes-CBA/WIP-Sales | One of the most brilliant international documentary slot worldwide, and probably the one most open to international coproduction, input and diversity in UK's public service.
A gate-keeper action and a networking capacity from its initiators which gives a quality name to the BBC, and inspiration to many producers in Europe.
What a pity for documentary people, professionnals or audience, to loose it! |
| 3252 | TON OKKERSE | MAN DIRECTOR | it's a rare slot, sort of 'last frontier' for the real public service feature doc. PLEASE do not touch . .
thank you |
| 3253 | Lindsay Pollock | Independent Film Maker | People who understand the unique importance of documentary film should be furious and perplexed at the proposed cuts. The BBC management are an absolute disgrace with no appreciation of the responsibility they have to protect and promote cultural assets like 'Storyville'. They've revealed themselves as philistine bean-counters puffed up on their own empty-headed, swaggering arrogance. £2.2 million was itself a paltry, derisory sum. I am sick to my stomach at this foul, acrid, treacherous move. Damn those people, I wish they'd give themselves a 60% cut in the neck. |

| 3261 | Boris Mitic | Dribbling Pictures | Storyville is an unmistakable reference for quality author-driven docs and a great inspiration for both viewers and filmmakers. The BBC is aggressively selling its dull, format-led, "general audience" animal or history docs all over the world at dumping prices, thus driving audiences away from true creative documentaries and jeopardizing the prospects of local doc production, since most TV stations find it cheaper and easier to acquire ready-made programs than to produce original ones. Ironically, the same thing seems to be happening at BBC with Storyville. A shame. |

| 3266 | Peter Everett | Director, Coyote Media | Less Jonathon Ross more Storyville. |
| 3267 | Allen Jewhurst | Executive Producer | This is one of the BBC's most highly respected strands and needs protecting. |
| 3268 | Sara Paniagua | Director, Coyote Media | |
| 3269 | DANIEL VERNON | FREELANCE FILMMAKER | Something really worth fighting for. |
| 3270 | Joost van Loon | managing Director | There are hardly any slots left where people who want to form their own oppinion and want to do their own thinking can find 'food for thought'. |
| 3271 | Michael Haslund-Christensen | Comm. editor Danish Film Institute | To reduce more format-led programming and schedule-led commissioning projects, it's important to save the few brands in Television like Storyville. Also to strengthen the additional funding needed for grander projects. |
| 3272 | Arunas Matelis | Producer/Director | Even though global warming is incredibly important issue currently, the diaries of humanistic discoveries, our collective experience and also a possibility to understand one-self and others is incredibly important too. Especially having in mind, how affective the form of communication documentary is. STORYVILLE as a part of a very important media channel, is that source. The source which allows people/audience for 2 hours to experience a vibration of soul that would be impossible otherwise even in a decade. Diminishing the possibilities of the source will only take out the experience from the audience that is as important as life itself. |

| 3279 | Anonymous | Anonymous | Come on BBC - don't forget what you (used to) do best. Storyville is one of the few places left where you can watch intelligent, thought provoking and important films on TV. |

| 3284 | Josh Dugdale | Director World In Vision | It will be a disaster if Storyville is cut. |
| 3285 | hubert SAUPER | film director, DARWIN'S NIGHTMARE | Storeyville is the programme in which every creative documentary author of the world is, or would be proud to be a part of.
cutting it's budget looks like some kind of political sabogage.

| 3286 | Dumisani Phakathi | Producer-Short Ends Pictures | The problems of the world result mainly from ignorance, which then leads to all sorts of ism's. Storyville is one of the few places in our "ignorant" world that facilitates real dialogue between the all the diverse people of the world. Budgets come and go, great films are forever. DO THE RIGHT THING. |
| 3287 | Boris Pavlovic | Senior Software Developer, Youngculture AG | Don't let BBC shot itself in the foot. Without programs like Storyville BBC will loose it's authority amongst people all over the world truly interested in other people's lives |

Cutting storeyville's budget in half looks like some kind of political sabogage.

| 3296 | Ray Tostevin | creative director, GRACE Productions | Storyville's commissioning budget should be ring-fenced. The strand is an absolute beacon for independent film-making on British television - and to compromise that position would be a very retrograde step. |
