The purpose of this paper is to show the ways in which a familiar TV programme's identity is produced and maintained by organization of the TV news show's talk. This identity is recognized as such by the audience. This paper will focus on the case in which the programme identity is accomplished through the main news caster's identity which is produced mainly through his and others' talk. I will demonstrate one of the ways in which the main caster's identity is accomplished by organization of the talk. In so doing, I aim to offer an account that the TV programme has its own “discursive world”.
