Walliams & Friend Research

• Who commissioned the programme?

          Shane Allen and Gregor Sharp

• Who produced it?

          BBC

• What audience is it aimed at? Why

It is linked to an older audience due to the transgressive humor that is used as older people would be able to understand and would find it more appealing. Also, the transgreesive humor isn't suitable for younger viewers.

• Why is it on at that time and on that channel? Link to 'type' of comedy and target audience. Is it on after the watershed? Why?

It is on at 9:30pm in order to gain the most amount of viewers, as its target audience are older people and if it was aired earlier then the target audience are more likely to be unavailable. Also it is a time where the older audience would be in bed, so it would be an ideal show to watch at that time. It's on BBC as it is a mainstream channel and has a high standard f comedies, and they are very well known for their comedy. It is on after the watershed due to the certain humor that is used and is inappropriate for younger viewers.

• Which category is Walliams & Friend in the Audience Demographic?

I would say that the show falls under the categories B and C1.
