BBC North (Group) is an operational business division of the BBC. It is headed by the BBC Director, North; Peter Salmon. It is also a brand that has been used by the BBC to mean: *The large ''BBC North'' region, centred on Manchester, that was active from the late 1920s until 1968 and was based upon one of the four UK regional radio transmission stations. *The ''BBC North'' region, centred on Leeds, that was active between 1968 and 2004 and which was split to form BBC Yorkshire and BBC Yorks & Lincs. *The operational department called ''BBC North'' that combined the output of the BBC's northern regions between 1990 and 1996. *The ''BBC North Group'' of major BBC departments that have already moved or are moving from London to MediaCityUK in Greater Manchester from 2011 onwards. As part of the ''BBC North Project''. ==BBC region 1920s-1968== The first ''BBC North'' operation was a large region, based in Manchester and covering the areas now served by BBC North West, BBC North East and Cumbria, BBC Yorkshire and BBC Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. Regional radio broadcasting was largely based at a leased studio complex above a bank known as 'Old Broadcasting House' at Piccadilly Gardens in Manchester city centre. These studios became the base for radio output from the region in 1929. The BBC's first regional television studio, studio A, would be based elsewhere in the city - at a converted church on Dickenson Road in Rusholme, which opened in 1954 after being owned and operated by Mancunian Films.〔(History of the Mancunian Film Studios ) It's a hot'un〕 Regional television news bulletins began from Piccadilly's studio N in 1957 and served the entire North of England. Two years later, the northern half of the region (the North East and Cumbria) began receiving its own TV news bulletins from Newcastle (BBC North East and Cumbria) while the two distinct areas either side of the Pennines continued to receive what eventually became ''Look North'' from Manchester until 22 March 1968. Regional radio output for this area continued on an opt-out of BBC Radio 4 until September 1980 (by which time, six BBC Local Radio stations had been set up to cover the North West & Yorkshire regions). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「BBC North」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
