British Jamaican
British Jamaicans (or Jamaican British people) are British people who were born in Jamaica or who are of Jamaican descent. The community is well into its third generation and consists of around 300,000 individuals, the second-largest Jamaican population, behind the United States, living outside of Jamaica. The majority of British people of Jamaican origin were born in the United Kingdom as opposed to Jamaica itself. The Office for National Statistics estimates that in 2015, some 137,000 people born in Jamaica were resident in the UK. The number of Jamaican nationals is estimated to be significantly lower, at 49,000 in 2015. Jamaicans have been present in the UK since the start of the 20th century; however, by far the largest wave of migration occurred after the Second World War.

Feedback (radio Series)
''Feedback'' is a BBC Radio 4 series dealing with listener reaction to the style and content of BBC radio broadcasting. Format The presenter introduces listeners' letters, phone calls, emails or tweets. It is a conduit for enraged listeners to enunciate their outrage or for enraptured listeners to express their praise for specific BBC radio programmes, and covers the output of other BBC national stations, such as Radio 1, as well as that of Radio 4. On occasion, the comments have less to do with content than with the media by which programmes may be broadcast; for instance, the iPlayer and BBC Sounds. Producers of radio programmes are often invited for a polite question and answer session with Roger Bolton. However, not all of them agree to take part. Transmission The programme, which runs for just under half an hour, is normally broadcast on Fridays at 16.30 and repeated on the following Sunday at 20.02. The 34 programmes a year (the series is off air in the summer) have been p ...

Continuity Announcers In The United Kingdom
In the United Kingdom, continuity announcers are people who are employed to introduce programmes on radio and television networks, to promote forthcoming programmes on the station, to cross-promote programmes on the broadcaster's other stations where applicable and, sometimes, to provide information relating to the programme just broadcast. The six pre-digital terrestrial television channels in the UK (BBC One, BBC Two, ITV, Channel 4, S4C and Channel 5) make use of continuity announcers, and for most of the time, continuity announcements are presented live. Continuity announcers can also be found on digital and satellite channels, but most of these channels make use of pre-recorded announcements. BBC The BBC mainly uses live announcers on its flagship television channels BBC One and BBC Two, and mainly uses pre-recorded announcements on its digital channels (apart from BBC News and BBC Parliament, which do not use announcers at all). Separate continuity for BBC One and BBC Tw ...
