Channel 4’s guiding
light is its remit, as laid out in legislation by Parliament. At its heart the
remit requires us to be innovative, experimental, distinctive and diverse. It
is multi-faceted, with different components, such as supporting and stimulating
well-informed debate and
inspiring people to make changes in their lives. The remit also suggests
how we can deliver outcomes – for example by investing in high-quality media
content and nurturing creative talent. It applies across the full spread of our
genres – from comedy and film to news and education.
Audiences
lie at the heart of everything we do at Channel 4. Our unique model means that
we aim to have as wide an appeal as possible while also reaching out to
specific demographics under-served by other broadcasters. We worked harder than
ever in 2012 to engage with
our viewers, harnessing new technologies to allow us to better understand their likes and
dislikes and develop a more personal relationship with audiences that we expect to deepen
further over time.

The comedy programmes seem to be mainly aimed at younger people - I think Channel 4 wants to appeal to a younger audience and does this by using slightly quirkier programmes you don't see on other channels

This is the best work that I have marked so far: you show clear evidence of the channel's brand identity and ethos. You give evidence of their comedy programme scheduling.
