What is and isn't reality television?

Which shows would you consider reality TV, and which ones are in the factual genre but not reality shows?

Would struggle to come up with a succinct definition of reality TV (probably because it's used to describe a broad enough type of show) as opposed to factual TV but I'd find it pretty easy to put most shows in either category.
