The controller of BBC Two has said he wants it to be the first mainstream TV channel to appear on broadband.

Roly Keating revealed his vision of an online BBC Two mixing "simulcast programming" and "comprehensive catch-up" in a speech to TV executives.

He said the channel would be "in the front line" of launching on broadband.

A pilot will be unveiled next year along with further trials of MyBBCPlayer, which will allow viewers to legally download BBC programmes.
