For TVP3, identify the region and local programme. TVP’s regional selector distinguishes 16 areas, and its Kronika programme page describes reporting from Małopolska, including Kraków and smaller communities. A generic TVP3 entry does not identify the local edition your household follows.
TVP3 needs a regional name
Choose the region first, then add the city or town when a particular report matters. Kraków, Warszawa, Gdańsk and other regional selections are different identities in the broadcaster’s navigation. A family following Małopolska may want Kronika even when national Polish news is available. A national report mentioning Kraków can cover the same subject without providing the local bulletin or its surrounding community stories.
Kronika means the Małopolska programme here
Use Kronika’s title together with TVP Kraków and the date. A generic word like chronicle can lose its programme identity in translation. If one interview or local issue is remembered, add the guest, municipality or subject. TVP’s programme description covers regional social and infrastructure matters as well as city stories, so the location can narrow a request beyond the regional capital.
A full edition or one local report
Decide whether to request the whole bulletin or one separately published report. A programme archive can identify an edition, while a short news article or video can contain only one contribution. If the complete local sequence matters, check the opening and surrounding programme. Published recurring hours should still be checked against the date rather than treated as a guarantee that every edition starts identically.
| Viewing need | Exact request |
|---|---|
| News from Małopolska | Request TVP Kraków’s Kronika, the date and complete edition; add the town when the local story matters. |
| Another TVP3area | Choose the actual regional service before the programme; do not substitute a national bulletin for local output. |
| A single interview | Give guest, municipality and topic; identify whether an extract is sufficient or surrounding news is required. |
Keep Polish spelling and original date
Keep the Polish title with diacritics and the original Warsaw calendar date when watching abroad. State Polish audio and any subtitle requirement separately. A regional publisher page is primary evidence of the programme’s identity; it does not verify which TVP3 region another service selects or how many earlier editions that service retains.
- Choose the regional service before the programme.
- Retain the Polish title and local edition date.
- Check a full bulletin separately from a matching report.
