Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes are used to classify businesses according to the type of their economic activity. The classifications
were last revised in 2003 and 2007. The SIC codes can be found at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/standard-industrialclassification-
of-economic-activities-sic.
For 2007 data are for 2003 SIC codes 9211 (film and video production), 9212 (film and video distribution) and 9213 (film exhibition).
From 2008 onwards, we define film and video production as the sum of 2007 SIC codes 59111 (film production), 59112 (video production) and
5912 (film, video and TV post-production), film and video distribution is the sum of 59131 (film distribution) and 59132 (video distribution) and film
exhibition is 5914 (film exhibition).
For 2008 both film distribution and video distribution are suppressed by the ONS as confidential. The figure shown for the sum of the two is the
four-digit class total (5913) minus TV programme distribution (59133).
For 2009, 2011 and 2012, only film is included in the distribution sector as the data for video distribution are confidential.
The figures for 2014 and 2015 have been revised since publication of the 2017 Statistical Yearbook.
