| 3451 | Anonymous | Anonymous | As a filmmaker and a documentarist I have experienced the disappearance of funding and slots first hand. It is a terrible loss and a stark indictment of the state of British broadcasting if one of the best and important documentary strands disappears from our screens. |

| 3454 | Raymond Toussaint | producer/ scriptwriter Moving Media Productions | Storyville is a brilliant documentary slot worldwide, and open to international coproduction.
A quality name to the BBC, and inspiration to many producers in Europe. The BBC needs to continue this with funding and support! |

| 3456 | Nikos Dayandas | Director/producer, Anemon Productions | To weaken Storyville is to push what once was the strongest documentary tradition in Europe, a little further towards extinction. |

| 3462 | Paul | Filmmaker, Video Editor CBS Sports | Strands like Storyville are essential to health of documentary film. Independent documentaries ARE the new journalism, as traditional sources of news coverage bow down to corporate and commercial pressures. How can we expect this unique art form to survive without funding sources such as Storyville? SAVE STORYVILLE! |

| 3466 | Ryan Bestford | Solicitor | Storyville is one of the reasons I rated the BBC so highly and continuing to support top quality documentaries such as the Storyville series is clearly within the mandate of the BBC. |
| 3467 | Reda Younsi | PhD student at the University of East Anglia | Storyville is unique in style and content. It will be a big loss for everyone. I hope the BBC will reassess this proposal, in addition, my message to the BBC executives – Please stop screening celebrities boring lives and get on with what the BBC does best, factual programmes and world class documentaries. |

| 3480 | caroline hellyer | freelance bottom of pile | I cannot believe that the BBC is so shortsighted and disconnected from its public that they will sacrifice one of the few good things they have left - Storyville. Instead they appear, these last few years, to be aiming for the Trash TV of the year award. Just when real documentary is gaining in popularity (in place of the cheap, embarrasingly bad fly-on-the-wall make an idiot of the people genre) they move to cut it. Documentary & News & Current Affairs are part of the BBC´s public service remit now honour that! Cut the Fat Cat salaries not documentaries. |

| 3483 | Anonymous | Anonymous | Putting aside the "mere" attraction of thoughtful programming, one of the important roles of TV is expanding the awareness of the electorate. Television was truly something special in this country. Soon we will have the voters we deserve with cuts like this. But I guess, that's the idea. |
| 3484 | Shannon Magness | DPhil Student | Storeyville rocks. Why get rid of it? So people will be STUCK with mindless 'factual television' ? Keep Storyville alive. If you don't, somebody else will steal the idea and ruin it (or run with it).
In fact, you could expand Storyville. |

| 3491 | Janet Lawrence | Producer/Director Tradewinds Production | I am extremely dismayed at the thought that Storyville be cut. Here is one of the few strands left for well crafted (dirty word?) single documentaries. We cannot allow this to happen! British (and worldwide ) television needs our help. As a producer who have worked in Britain and for PBS (USA) We need to keep our EYES ON THE PRIZE so we don't lose great programming. |

| 3493 | Daneeta Loretta Saft | Director+Producer, The Elektrik Zoo | I have recently noticed a trend to more reality based TV shows on the BBC. These shows are being favored over documentary commissions. I strongly protest this new trend. Reality based TV is cheap, meaningless and boring TV. There is no thinking involved, and, while there is nothing wrong with light entertainment, it should not be favoured over quality TV.
The Storyville budget must increase, not decrease. I would like my TV tax to bring me more meaningful TV than reality-based TV. |
| 3494 | Lawrence MOORE | Director | I whole-heartedly agree that the BBC has a responsibility to its public to maintain serious documentary strands in the face of the appalling decline in British television. |
