I'd be interested to know why you think the person operating the camera didn't know what they were doing? And how could you tell anyway?

And what's an ALTP?

Unfortunately, all the master schedules now show a programme called 'hairy women' in that slot
So it could still be about a flying club then?

Or are they hairy in that slot?

I had a look, and it was scheduled in that slot. However, it's been deleted again, and something else (to be decided) is now to air in that slot. Schedules change quickly around christmas!

Remmington.....

Re: "Dickie"

Presumably you know who he is and and are playing devil's advocate a bit here - anyone who knows WAC will also know,
so there's no need for me to say

WYCOMBE

The name "Dickie" rang some bells but not sure why?
Any clues?

If you ever see a short bloke hanging around WAC dressed like Biggles - that's Dickie.

Dickie "dressed like Biggles"!! - LOL

Know what you mean though (but suspect you might have seen him on a day when he was biplane flying)

Brilliant PR scam for C5.
Send someone who doesnt know how to use a camera to film lots of shots. Tell people that the programme is on in a couple of months then schedule and reschedule. Cause a flurry of posts to a forum about the programme. Generate more interest than C5 does for its programming generally. Have more people posting than C5 would normally get as viewers.

I must declare I have nothing to do with C5 or any othetr broadcasting organisation and the sum of my knowledge on this subject has been gained from reading this thread.

CHIPj,

Do you think ? Is reading this thread going to make me watch c5 more ??? I reckon not; well apart from this program that is - so i dont see how the rescheduling is relevant, particularly since the thread had been dormant for 10 days prior to TKF post.

The latest from Channel 5 viewer enquires today is that this programme hasn't yet been scheduled, but is expected to be shown sometime in the next three weeks!

They are certainly keeping this one under wraps, or maybe they are having problems editing a coherent programme from the material they shot!

Happy Christmas!

Hi folks,
Just wondering has this programme been shown yet on C5? If not, any ideas when it is being aired? Hope I haven't missed it!

I've been checking the C5 schedules and asfar as I'm aware we haven't yet missed it. Can't see when it's going to be on though.
