ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Channel 4 Sheffield Pitch

So, Channel 4 is a TV station that shows lots of different programmes like cartoons, documentaries, and shows about cooking or games. They wanted to make even more shows, so they asked people all over the UK if they had any good ideas.

One of the places they asked was Sheffield, which is a big city in the middle of England. They wanted to hear from people who live there or nearby.

When you want to tell someone your idea for a TV show, you need to pitch it. That means you talk about it and explain why it would be great to watch.

For the Channel 4 Sheffield Pitch, people from Sheffield could send in their idea for a new TV show. The people who made the best pitches got to show their ideas to the important people who work at Channel 4, and they might even get to make their TV show for real!

It's like having a really cool idea for a game to play with your friends, but you need to explain it to your parents or teacher first to see if they think it's a good idea. If they like it, you get to play the game and have lots of fun!
