BBC Worldwide


	Ever since the launch of the Radio Times in 1923, BBC's first commercial venture, there has been increasing demand for products celebrating BBC radio and television programmes.

Today millions of people around the world experience the BBC through BBC Worldwide's television channels, television programme exports, magazines and other publishing.

During 2004/05, BBC Worldwide's activities help achieve record profits of £55m, up 50% on last year, and sales of £706m, up 7% on last year, while cash flow to the BBC hit a new high of £145m.
