The BBC’s Programmes website is huge, and is intended to be a rolling archive of everything that the BBC broadcasts on television and radio. Originally released in 2007, it now has pages for over 1.6 million episodes, but that’s barely half of the story. Surrounding those episodes is a wealth of content, including clips, galleries, episode guides, character profiles and much more, plus Programme’s newly responsive home pages.
The new responsive home pages, known as “brand” pages, join the schedule
and A–Z lists in a broader responsive rebuild. 39% of users (and
growing) now use mobile and tablet devices to visit these pages; so,
making the pages responsive was the best way to serve a great experience
to everybody while keeping the website maintainable.
This
article is a case study of the responsive rebuild of the BBC’s
Programmes pages, and it actually begins back in 2007, at the conception
of the project.
