This World (television programme)

This World (television programme)

"This World" is a BBC television documentary strand, shown in the United Kingdom on BBC Two, and occasionally internationally on BBC World. The subject matter is mainly social issues and current affairs stories from around the world.

Most films in the series run for one hour and in the UK are usually broadcast at 2100 on Tuesday or Thursday evenings. The "This World" website includes additional features and a discussion facility for public comment on the programmes. The BBC streams episodes in RealVideo format via its website for a limited period after they have been shown, and sells them on DVD and VHS by mail order.
