Scheduling

There are three ways in which an auidence can be pursuaded into watching a programme by one, inheritance, where the audience from a previous programme being watched are tuned into the next following show.
Two, pre-echo, is when the auidence turn a programme on early, before the show they want to watch and are engaged to fully view it the next time.
And three, hammocking, is the means of placing a show in middle of two good programmes. E.g. Coronation Street and how they have a half an hour gap to see what happens next.

They say that each TV programme has a particular favour by the auidence and popularity.
BBC2, being the less popular.
BBC1, being the more popular.
ITV1, being popular to family.
Channel 4, being popular and educational.
Channel 5, being not as popular but similar to BBC2 and BBC1.

Our documentary about phobias is going to be titled, "There's a monster under my bed..." and as it is an educational show about how phobias are developed, overcome and effected by people; we thought that Channel 4 would be best suitable to view on. Starting at 8:30pm due to the fact there is some graphical and violent content. This also should attract the correct age at 16-40 year olds as it is not placed during the day when children could view it and are less likely to be in bed. Monday has been chosen to host our documentary as it is the start of a new week where people are most probably going to settle in after a busy weekend.
