Ariel (newspaper)

Ariel was the in-house magazine/newspaper of the BBC, published weekly on Tuesdays, and named after Prospero and Ariel, the 1932 statue by Eric Gill on the facade of the BBC's Broadcasting House depicting Shakespeare's Prospero and Ariel.

On 19 October 2011, it was announced that the printed edition would cease production at the end of December 2011[1] and then only be available as Ariel Online.

[2] Distributed as a newspaper for 75 years to staff and visitors at major BBC premises, it was also available to the public by subscription (£50 per annum UK).

An equivalent publication circulated each month to retired BBC staff called Prospero is also available online in PDF format.
