Dear sir or madam,

I am writing to inform you about the programmes that I have to choose for national television, and their schedule.

The first programme that I choose is called Environment heroes. It is a programme for kids between the ages of 6 to 13 years old. It aims to educate them on environmental issues and what they can do to take care of our planet. The ideal programme's airing would be at 16:00 on weekdays since the kids are not in school and it is usually a time that they spend doing leisure activities.

The next programme that I consider to be suitable for national television is Time to talk. It is a debate programme with different topics every week. Specialists in different areas and with contrasting points of view are invited to the studio to discuss controversial issues that affect us. They would inform the audience about problems, such as inequality for females regarding salaries, discrimination, economic crisis, changes in education, amongst other topics. As it is a programme that talks about controversial themes that might not be suitable for children, it should be aired at 11:00 pm on weekdays.

I hope that the programmes could be aired and on those timetables. They would have a considerable impact on our audience and our society.

Yours faithfully.

Mark Jhonson.

Explanation:

When we write a formal letter, we should use a formal style, with no contractions or too friendly words. In the first paragraph, we introduce the topic. Then we proceed to talk in detail about it in the next paragraphs. In the last section of the letter, we write a closing paragraph where we cordially thank or ask the reader for something. Finally, we use a closing phrase, in this case, yours faithfully, and our signature.
