EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Highlights
Hours listened to all radio have increased by 8% in Teesside (while remaining stable nationally) in five years Hours listened to BBC Radio have increased by 25% in five years Hours listened to BBC Radio Two have increased by 78% in five years Hours listened to commercial radio have fallen by 4% in five years Hours listened to local commercial radio have fallen by 38% in five years Hours listened to local commercial station TFM have fallen by 49% in five years Hours listened to regional commercial radio have increased by 36% in five years

As a result: BBC Radios share of listening has increased from 41% to 48% in five years Commercial radios share of listening has fallen from 58% to 51% in five years BBC Radio Twos share of listening has increased from 11% to 19% in five years Local (excluding regional) commercial radios share of listening has fallen from 28% to 16% in five years TFMs share of listening has fallen from 17% to 8% in five years regional commercial radios share of listening has increased from 20% to 25% in five years

There has been a substantial shift of radio listening, in all age groups, away from the local heritage station TFM and towards BBC Radio Two and towards, to a lesser extent, the regional commercial stations Century Radio and Galaxy Radio. As a result, listening to local commercial radio has fallen dramatically in Teesside, to be replaced by listening to national and, to a lesser extent, regional stations. This has created a substantial increase in the BBCs share of the market, which is likely to surpass 50% in the coming year, as the decline of TFMs audience continues to accelerate.

Details
All Radio Radio reaches 90% of the adult population in Teesside, the same as across the UK as a whole, and this level is relatively steady Radio as a medium shows no sign of decline in Teesside, as hours listened have increased by 8% over the last five years, compared to a stable number of hours listened across the UK This 8% increase in radio listening is attributable to the increasing popularity of BBC Radio BBC Radios share of listening has increased by precisely the amount that local/regional commercial radio has lost over the last five years (BBC: 41% to 48%; local/regional commercial radio: 48% to 41%) BBC Radio BBC Radio has substantially increased its appeal in Teesside over the last five years: o Reach has increased dramatically from 56% to 66% o Share has increased from 41% to 48% o Hours listened have increased by a huge 25% (compared to a 6% increase across the whole UK) Commercial Radio Conversely, commercial radios appeal has contracted significantly in Teesside over the last five years: o Reach has fallen from 70% to 68% o Share has fallen from 58% to 51% o Hours listened have fallen by 4% Local/Regional Commercial Radio The decline in commercial radios appeal is attributable to local/regional commercial radios falling audience in Teesside over the last five years: o Share has fallen from 48% to 41% (while BBC Radios share has increased from 41% to 48%) o Hours listened have fallen by 8% TFM Local commercial radios decline is almost wholly attributable to the massive fall in popularity of the markets heritage ILR station TFM over the last five years: o Reach has fallen from 34% to 26% o Share has fallen by more than half from 17% to 8% o Hours listened have fallen by 49% This dramatic decline in hours listened is accelerating. The last year alone saw a 21% fall in hours listened Five years ago, TFM was the market leader with more than a 4% lead over the number two station. TFM has now fallen to fourth place in the Teesside market, and has less than half the share of market leader BBC Radio Two TFM has lost substantial listening in all age groups over the last five years:

Over the last five years: o Reach has grown from 29% to 35% o Share has grown from 12% to 14% o Hours listened have grown by 19% Century Radio has wide appeal to all ages from 15 to 64 Century Radio appeals to both sexes Century Radio appeals to both ABC1 and C2DE demographics Galaxy Radio Regional station Galaxy Radio is also showing strong growth, but concentrated mostly on the 15-24 year old age group. Over the last five years, in all age groups: o Reach has grown from 18% to 28% o Share has grown from 7% to 11% o Hours listened have grown by a remarkable 64% Local versus regional commercial radio The substantial decline of listening to local commercial radio in the Teesside market has been accompanied by an increase in listening to the two regional stations, Century Radio and Galaxy Radio. Both stations broadcast from Newcastle, which is 58 miles from Northallerton, making them little more than a distant alternative to national radio stations. Listener affinity has largely switched from local commercial radio to regional commercial radio and, to a greater extent, to BBC Radio Two. Over the last five years: Regional commercial radios share of listening is up from 20% to 25% Local commercial radios share of listening is down from 28% to 16% Regional commercial radios hours listened are up 36% Local commercial radios hours listened are down 38% BBC Radio One Reach down from 23% to 18% (all comparisons over last five years) Share down from 11% to 8% Hours listened down 23% BBC Radio Two Reach up from 19% to 33% Share up from 11% to 19% Hours listened up 78%

Listening to all stations has remained steady over the last five years. Reach has fluctuated around 90%. Hours listened have increased by 8% over the last five years. Within the total population, changes are evident in the success of radio at reaching different age groups:

The data shows that radios reach in the 15-24 and 25-34 year old age groups is generally on a downward trend, while radios reach in all the older age groups continues to rise. This pattern is reflected in many radio markets across the UK, where radio is finding it increasingly difficult to maintain the interest of young people. By comparison, across the whole UK, radio has a 90% weekly reach. Hours listened to radio have remained steady (when indexed against population changes) over the last five years.

Hours listened to BBC Radio have increased by a massive 25% over the last five years. As the graph shows, most of that increase was achieved between 2000 and 2002 and the trend has levelled out in recent years. This overall trend masks considerable and apposite trends with individual BBC Radio stations. For example, hours listened to Radio Two have increased by 78% in the last five years, while hours listened to Radio One have fallen by 23%. And hours listened to Radio Five Live have increased by 60%, while hours listened to Radio Four have fallen by 14%. By comparison, across the whole UK, BBC radio has a 67% weekly reach, up from 65% five years ago. BBC radio has a 54% share of listening, up from 51% five years ago. Hours listened to BBC radio have increased by 6% (when indexed against population changes) over the last five years.

Commercial radios loss of listening to the BBC can be attributed to local/regional commercial radios declining appeal. Local/regional commercial radios share of listening has fallen from 48% five years ago to 41% now. Local/regional commercial radios hours listened have fallen by 8% over the last five years. This decline is showing no signs of abating. Hours listened to local/regional commercial radio fell by 9% in the last year alone and by 14% over the last two years. If anything, the loss of hours transferring from local/regional commercial radio to the BBC seems to be accelerating. By comparison, across the whole UK (in areas with commercial radio), local/regional commercial radio has a 53% weekly reach, down from 57% five years ago. Local/regional commercial radio has a 34% share of listening, down from 39% five years ago. Hours listened to local/regional commercial radio have fallen by 13% (when indexed against population changes) over the last five years.

Five years ago, hours listened by males were 48% of total hours listened to TFM. Now males only contribute 39% of hours listened. TFMs share of listening amongst the C2DE demographic has fallen dramatically from 21% to 8%, while the stations share of listening in the ABC1 demographic has fallen only slightly from 10% to 8%. Five years ago, hours listened by the C2DE demographic contributed 78% of total hours listened to TFM. Now, C2DE hours listened make up 59% of the total.

In this age group, reach has increased from 28% to 43% while share has increased from 12% to 18%.

Demographic analysis for Galaxy Radio has had to be derived from data for its entire TSA, not Teesside alone, as no separate data is published for Teesside. Galaxy Radios reach in the 15-24 year old age group increased substantially between 2000 and 2001 and now stands at 61%. The stations reach in the 2534 and 35-44 year old age groups has shown less remarkable growth.

The shift of audience away from TFM and towards BBC Radio 2 and, to a lesser extent, towards the regional commercial stations available in Teesside, is demonstrated by these graphs.
