QUESTIONNAIRE ANALYSISLARNA MCCANN

1. AGE?

The people that answered our questionnaire ranged from 16 years old to 63 years old. The responses received from such a diverse age range allowed us to analyse who is the most suitable target audience for the documentary on our chosen topic.

2. WHAT TIME OF DAY ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO WATCH TV?

This pie chart clearly shows that the majority of people watch television in the evening, with over half of the respondents saying this is when they’re most likely to tune in. However, those that said they watch TV at this time were all under the age of 25, whereas the older generation who will make up our target audience said they watch TV earlier. Therefore, we will consider airing our documentary in the late afternoon as at this time our target audience is likely to be home from work watching TV.

3. WHAT CHANNEL DO YOU TUNE IN TO THE MOST?

These responses show that BBC was the most popular channel among those that took our questionnaire, with channel 4 coming in second. Therefore, we will consider airing our show on one of these channels as evidently they are well known and will help attract many viewers.

4. DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU BOUGHT YOUR CUTLERY FROM?

Ikea

Asda

Tesco

Wilkos

Most people we asked bought their cutlery from Ikea so we may consider including this department store within our documentary as clearly this is a place people have visited and are familiar with and so may want to find out more about the shop.

5. WHERE WAS YOUR CUTLERY MADE?

Sweden China Italy Unsure

One of the most popular answers to this question was ‘unsure’ suggesting that many people are unaware of where there cutlery has came from. Hence, we may include within our documentary where cutlery is made around the world as most people don’t seem to know much about this.

This graph shows that 23 out of 28 people said they don’t buy new cutlery very often. As the majority of people keep the same cutlery for a long time, we may consider including in our documentary why cutlery is so long lasting and what allows us to preserve it for a long period of time.

50% 50%

When asked this question, 14 people responded yes and the other 14 people responded no, giving an even split. This implicates that on average only 50% of people carry on with this tradition and so we may not include this in our documentary.
