What channel will I distribute my documentary on?

I have conducted various research across different channels of the BBC and analyzed how each one conducts the openings. I have researched BBC2, BBC3, and BBC4. My focus was pulled to certain patterns in each one.

The channel I believe will be more entitled to my documentary is BBC2 in my opinion. I analyzed Ukraine: The People's Fight. I liked this style of opening as it was constructed to exert the impression of seriousness within the attitudes of the people in the documentary. I believe my topic of Men's Mental Health is the serious manner and needs to be taken carefully.

A channel I wouldn't distribute my documentary on is BBC4. In my opinion, they tend to have a much more relaxed style of documentaries, for example,
Storyville: Evil Knieval. I don't think this style of documentary suits my topic

I also feel as if some of my interviews didn't really correlate to my topic as much as I would like them to have. What have I learned/ what will I do in my final task differently? In my final draft, I will continue the idea of...
