6 O'Clock News to feature BTCC?

[Jonathan McLeod]

According to the homepage, the BBC 6 O'Clock News attended the BTCC media day at Brands Hatch. :eek:

The BBC!!!, Suppose it will be free advertising for the BTCC if they make a news article about it.

[Claw]

Well it wasn't on. Surprise, surprise!

[Jonathan McLeod]

Maybe on the local show?

[Williams Ren 99]

Did'nt see anything on it either!!!

[ATF]

What's the BBC regional news for London - was it on that?

[BTCC2]

BBC London?

[ted]

i remember last year medrian itv did feature the media day. it was bit short.

[Alan Gow]

It was for a piece they are doing on bio-fuels for the 6 o'clock national news.
No date yet for it to be shown, but maybe next week.

[Jerry Zedman]

It will be great to see Fiona and her team feature on the national news. Oh, and great publicity for the BTCC too doesn't go a miss, eh Alan? ;) :D

[Alan]

Dare I assume everyone spotted Motors Tv BTCC season preview last night (10.00pm)?

Very good show that was - no doubt they will repeat it during the next few days.

Good in depth interviews with Matt and Jason and Alan Gow.

They even dug out some old footage of Matt in Fiestas and Jason in Spiders and Formula Renault.

PS Nice house Jason!!!:)

For anyone that missed it (I was busy doing a Dad's Taxi service ;)) :_

http://www.motorstv.com/site/home.php?sec=program&Idarbo=22&Idarbo1=23&lg=2[/URL] has it listed.

Just read the piece on the home page about Fiona, it appears that the piece for the 6:00 o'clock news relates to the Bio fuel that she uses in her car, it reads as though it has not yet been on, maybe in the next few days in the build up to Brands...?

On a seperate note Meridian TV had a feature on the Hampshire drivers Rob Collard and James Kaye last night, most of which was filmed at media day, some great publicity for the series with a mention for the Thruxton round later this year.

Has the BBC piece been on yet? If not, I'd assume it should be tonight.

Also, I read the Meridian preview was on tonight - is that on ITV?

[Marc W]

I've not seen any sign of the BBC report yet, I'm assuming it'll be on tonight, providing it doesn't get bumped by some major event happening. Yes, Meridian is ITV for the southern region.

There was a piece on the BBC South East Today last night (Thursday) about Motorbase Performance.

The guys in the studio were joking about the colour of Pinkneys Honda..

I think I can get different ITV regions through Sky Digital, will go and have a look...

Did anyone see a feature on either the BBC news or Meridian? I had it on in the background but there were 2 Merdians (E & S) so I didn't know which to watch! I think one of the presenters was Fred from How 2!! :D

[ted]

if anyones intrested in previews in magazines, try auto express. its better then motorsport news preview.(i didnt bother to look at autosport, they are more bothered about dtm season)

[Jonathan McLeod]

The Autosport preview was ok.

The Autosport preview was ok.

I was going to buy it but I couldn't find it in 3 places I looked. How long was it and what features did they do? I bet it's the same stuff you can find on the net?

[Jonathan McLeod]

Yeah - review of all the team, an article about the season in general and one on Neal
