Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics

The request was refused by British Broadcasting Corporation.

Dear British Broadcasting Corporation,

If you could please answer the below questions:
- What was the peak live viewership of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics opening ceremony on BBC platforms in the UK?
- What was the total viewership on BBC catch up of the Beijing Winter Olympics opening ceremony ?
- How many complaints did the BBC receive concerning the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games?

- What was the peak live viewership of the 2018 South Korean Winter Olympics opening ceremony on the BBC platforms in the UK?
- What was the peak live viewership of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics opening ceremony on the BBC platforms in the UK?

Knowing these figures is in the public interest, to assess scale and scope of impact coverage of the games has had. And, to assess a trend over previous years.

Please prioritise the first 3 questions, but ideally answer all.

Yours faithfully,

Flo Marks
