The chart below shows the total number of minutes (in billions) of telephone calls in the UK, divided into three categories, from 1995 – 2002.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The bar chart compares the duration of telephone calls made by different lines in the UK between 1995 and 2002
Overall, it is clear that the local-fixed line was the most common call type in this nation over that time. The number of minutes of telephone calls using national and international – fixed lines and mobiles increased, but the figure for local-fixed lines rose and then fell back.
In 1995, the local-fixed line was used to make calls for more than 70 billion minutes, doubling the figure for the national and international-fixed lines. At that time, the mobile phone was not a common way to make calls, with its total duration being only about 3 billion minutes.
From that year to 1999, the local-fixed line was used more frequently, with its figure reaching 90 billion minutes, but four years after that, this figure fell back to the initial point. In comparison, national and international-fixed line usage climbed gradually to 60 billion minutes, compared to a sharper growth in the duration of mobile phone calls which recorded around 45 billion minutes in 2002.
