Why don't we start by, um, you introducing yourself and, and your role at, at the BBC, um, and the activity that you look after?

Yes.

So I'm a director of digital and on-demand for BBC Studios Global Channels and Streaming business in, uh, EMEA.

In simple terms, my job is to work on how we take some of BBC's best known content and brands and build new digital business around them in Europe.

A big part of my role is FAST, which, uh, I've been working on since I first joined about five years ago, and we've taken it from a startup business within BBC Studios into a growing and strategically important commercial operations.

My remit is actually broader.

Um, I also look after our on-demand propositions, including our BBC player business on Amazon in Germany, and increasingly I'm looking into the 360 partnerships around FAST, AVOD, and other digital models.
