The BBC is to launch a TV version of its World Service in the spring of next year. The programme, which will form part of BBC TV Europe, will consist of daily half-hour news bulletins available via satellite to operators in 22 countries. BBC TV International will sell and distribute World Service Television News in languages such as German and Japanese, as well as English. Although the idea of a TV World Service has been circulating at the BBC for several years, the Gulf crisis has highlighted the importance and usefulness of such a service.
