We
have added links where possible to the teams and individuals so you can better
appreciate the backgrounds of those being trusted to spend £120m wisely. We
have also indicated relationships with other funding sources such as Lottery,
Arts Council, University sector etc., where possible. Please advise any
corrections to fuk2022watch@thefestivalofthe.uk

Please note that festivalof.uk
and thefestivalofthe.uk has no connection with Festival UK 2022 but we do have a
coherent proposal and concept for a 2022 celebration that celebrates 100 years
of broadcasting which began in Chelmsford in 1922.
As part of a broader celebration of a century
of broadcasting and wireless development, we propose a Peoples Netflix
Project to locate and enable talent that can create content that can chart
the UKs return to the world as a sovereign nation no longer beholden to
Brussels but revisiting, restoring and exploring the fundamental
relationships we enjoy with Commonwealth countries and peoples.
Who remembers the BBC domesday laser disc? This seems like an opportunity to
update it
we can encourage and enable the swelling ranks of video journalists
(basically, anyone with current smartphone) to explore and chronicle the four
nations of the United Kingdom.
