Ariel is the in-house magazine/newspaper of the BBC, published weekly on Tuesdays, and named after the statue of Shakespeare's Prospero and Ariel by Eric Gill on the facade of the BBC's Broadcasting House, London. Distributed freely to staff and visitors to major BBC premises, and also available to the public by subscription (£50 p.a. UK) - Ariel Online can also be accessed by staff electronically over the BBC intranet - Gateway. Its current editor is Andrew Harvey. An equivalent publication circulated each month to retired BBC staff is called Prospero.
