2000 Today is an internationally broadcast television special that was aired to commemorate the beginning of the Year 2000. This programme included New Year's Eve celebrations, musical performances, and other features from participating nations.
Most international broadcasts such as the Olympic Games coverage originate from a limited area for worldwide distribution. 2000 Today was rare in that its live and taped programming originated from member countries and represented all continents.
Development
2000 Today was conceived as part of the Millennium celebrations, given the numerical significance of the change from 1999 to 2000. 2000 Today was commissioned by the BBC as one of the five main millennium projects that were broadcast across TV, radio and online services throughout 1999 and 2000.https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/394106.stm BBC News | Entertainment | BBC uncorks its millennium plans news.bbc.co.uk 14 July 1999 13 September 2020 18 November 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20201118125606/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/394106.stm live
Most nations that observe the Islamic calendar were not involved in 2000 Today. However, a few predominantly Muslim nations were represented among the programme's worldwide broadcasters such as Egypt (ERTU) and Indonesia (RCTI). Africa was minimally represented in 2000 Today. The only participating nations from that continent were Egypt and South Africa. Portugal-based RTP África distributed the programme to some African nations.
Antarctica was mentioned on the programme schedule, although it was unclear if 2000 Today coverage was recorded or live.
Production
The programme was produced and televised by an international consortium of 60 broadcasters, headed by the BBC in the United Kingdom and WGBH in Boston, United States.https://www.bbc.co.uk/info/news/news118.htm https://web.archive.org/web/20060307154808/https://www.bbc.co.uk/info/news/news118.htm 2000 TODAY 7 March 2006 BBC 13 September 2020 The editorial board also included representatives from ABC (Australia), CBC (Canada), CCTV (China), ETC (Egypt), RTL (Germany), SABC (South Africa), TF1 (France), TV Asahi (Japan), TV Globo (Brazil) and ABC (USA). The BBC provided the production hub for receiving and distributing the 78 international satellite feeds required for this broadcast. The idents for the programme were designed in the UK by Lambie-Nairn and the BBC for use by all the participating broadcasters taking part in the event. The linking theme throughout all the idents and promotions was a distinctively shaped stone engraved with the year 2000.https://www.greektvidents.com/2000_Today.shtml Greek TV Idents : 2000 Today www.greektvidents.com September 2002 13 September 2020 18 November 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20201118050752/https://www.greektvidents.com/2000_Today.shtml live The themes were: desert, fire, ice, lasers and water; plus a special BBC News ident.http://www.2000today.co.uk/ 2000today.co.uk www.2000today.co.uk 15 January 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20031229234906/http://www.2000today.co.uk/ 29 December 2003 dead
Up to 5,000 staff worked on 2000 Today, 1,500 of them in BBC Television Centre in West London, where all eight television studios were used during the 28-hour broadcast. Each participant financed and produced its own contributions and shared the core costs proportionately to its size and wealth. It is estimated to have cost $6 million to produce and broadcast. At the time, technicians at Radio-Canada were on strike. Transmissions were seen as scheduled, but using only the main feed from the BBC, with a French voice-over. Also, as a consequence, 2000 footage from Canada was scarce on SRC's presentation, while footage from Quebec was not available at all worldwide (though the CBC did manage to get the only Quebec coverage on their own network—a video shot of midnight fireworks in Hull, Quebec, shot from Ottawa, Ontario).
2000 Today was nominated for "Best Visual Effects and Graphic Design" at the 2000 British Academy Television Craft Awards.http://awards.bafta.org/award/2000/tvcraft/graphic-design 2000 BAFTA Television Craft Awards winners and nominees – Awards database British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) 4 December 2017 4 December 2017 https://web.archive.org/web/20171204223006/http://awards.bafta.org/award/2000/tvcraft/graphic-design live
Programme timeline

2000 Today's core international broadcast was 28 hours long, following the beginning of the New Year 2000 across the world's time zones. The programme was tailored by individual broadcasters to provide local content and hosts. There was no in-vision commentary or studio used for the Estonian broadcast and was aired on TV3 without commentary between midnight and 6:00 UTC.
The broadcast on BBC One in the United Kingdom started on 31 December 1999 at 09:15 UTC. 2000 Today started its international feed at 09:40 UTC, with the Kiribati Line Islands celebrating the arrival of 2000 at 10:00 UTC.
The Australian celebrations are held all across the country with the most notable one being the midnight fireworks in Sydney (13:00 UTC) and is televised on ABC.
Most of Europe celebrated midnight at 23:00 UTC. Broadcasting celebrations from many countries under Central European Time posed a particularly complex broadcast challenge. 2000 Today chose to rapidly air each nation's midnight observances in succession, using tape delays in most cases. This hour of the broadcast included a blessing by Pope John Paul II from Vatican City and the pyrotechnic display of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
The celebrations in London (00:00 UTC) included the opening of the Millennium Dome and the London Eye, the chimes of Big Ben, and the fireworks display (known as the “River of Fire”). The BBC was there to cover the festivities from all across the country.
The celebrations in Ushuaia, Argentina (03:00 UTC) features a tango performance by Julio Bocca and Eleonora Cassano. Argentine broadcaster Canal 13 covered the festivities from all across the country.
For the Eastern Time Zone (05:00 UTC), 2000 Today chose to air each country’s observance of the celebrations with the most notable one being the famous “Ball Drop” in Times Square, New York. American broadcaster ABC covered the festivities with Peter Jennings & Dick Clark and as the ball drops, it shows a crowd of two million spectators who are counting down to midnight.
2000 Today's international feed finished shortly after midnight celebrations were broadcast from Samoa on 1 January 2000 at 11:00 UTC. BBC One in the United Kingdom continued to broadcast with national features until 13:30. Later the same evening, it aired a two-hour highlights programme, The Best of 2000 Today.https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/6c85fe1917334f70a8b43bd0d01fcbdc The Best of 2000 Today 1 January 2000 3958 78 BBC Genome 13 September 2020 18 November 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20201118065122/https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/6c85fe1917334f70a8b43bd0d01fcbdc dead
