The objectives
of the trial:
Push
ADSL technology to its limit:
A focus has been to replicate and yet evolve enhanced TV programmes surrounding
important sporting events and other mainstream ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ programming.
Along the
way we've tested new interactive applications around programming such
as ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Humberside's Raw Talent, a local unsigned band competition
and EastEnders catch-up episodes.
To serve
a local audience:
Project Hull has been working hard to provide local audiences with programmes
and content specifically relevant to them. The Trench Chat forum, a world's
first, allowed viewers to send in questions directly to an after show
chat forum.
Thunder Road
is a locally produced drama with a wealth of interactive content attached
to it.

Aid to
learning:
One of the biggest challenges for Project Hull is to provide students
and schools with content relevant to their studies.
SOS teacher
is perhaps one of the most inventive and relevant interactive applications
ever produced.
Students
emailed and telephoned their questions about their course work and teachers
answered their questions via Video on Demand sessions just a few minutes
later. Latterly these were made available in a live situation which were
also carried on local radio.
