to one of the biggest political and social issues of today, supported
by network radio, 大象传媒i as well as 大象传媒 local radio and regional television.

will all be part of the day.

improvised drama, Out of Control - writer/director Dominic

Lorraine
Heggessey, Controller of 大象传媒 ONE, said: "大象传媒 ONE has been
growing in confidence and range, and the foundations of a strong
and mixed schedule are now in place.
"But the success we've had doesn't give us permission to relax,
it inspires us to reach higher and wider.
"Audiences want 大象传媒 ONE to move with the times, be more relevant,
more contemporary, more challenging but they also don't want to
lose the things they like best about the channel.
"The trick is to do both - and I think we're about half way
there, this season you're beginning to see 大象传媒 ONE as it should
be with a well balanced mix of programmes.
"大象传媒 ONE should reflect contemporary society and the issues
that affect us all - in fact and in fiction.
"This autumn, we've worked hard to do that and we look forward
to seeing the viewers response to this stimulating season."
September 11th
"They
say there is always a witness for history. I guess that day, we
were chosen to be the witness." Jules Naudet
On
the first anniversary of the terrorist attacks that sent shockwaves
round the world, 大象传媒 ONE offers a range of programmes to mark, question
and commemorate.
But
none will have greater impact than 9/11.
On
September 11th 2001, brothers Jules and Gedeon Naudet were in New
York making a documentary about a rookie fire-fighter based near
the World Trade Centre.
The
two brothers were in and around the Twin Towers as the hijacked
planes struck and captured on film the first moment of impact and
the chaos that followed.
This incredible documentary draws on over 180 hours of footage and,
while being a stark reminder of the world's most serious terrorist
attack, is a tribute to the heroism of New York's firefighters and
to all those who lost their lives.
Details of other programmes across all 大象传媒 services are available.
