The Big Read
The Big Read was a survey on books carried out by the BBC in the United Kingdom in 2003, where over three quarters of a million votes were received from the British public to find the nation's best-loved novel of all time.〔The BBC's Big Read (BBC - The Big Read ) April 2003, Retrieved 2008-12-9〕〔(Penguin Dominates The Big Read Top 100 ) ''Penguin'' Press Office〕 The year-long survey was the biggest single test of public reading taste to date,〔John Ezard (15 Dec 2003) (Tolkien runs rings round Big Read rivals ) ''The Guardian''〕 and culminated with several programmes hosted by celebrities, advocating their favourite books.〔Boyd Tonkin (24 Oct 2003) (A Week in Books: The Big Read aims to reflect mass taste ) ''The Independent''〕
==Purpose==
The BBC started the Big Read with the goal of finding the "Nation's Best-loved Novel" by way of a viewer vote via the Web, SMS, and telephone. The show attracted controversy for adopting an allegedly sensationalist approach to literature, but supporters praised it for raising the public awareness of reading.〔 The British public voted originally for any novel that they wished.〔(Book awards: BBC's Big Read - LibraryThing ) Retrieved 2010-11-28〕 From this, a list of 200 was drawn up, with the highest 21 then put forward for further voting, on the provision that only one book per author was permitted in the top 21. As the poll was based on novels, the plays of William Shakespeare were not part of the survey.
