BBC4 to do plane spotting live
Bear in mind that very few PPRuNers are likely to be among the target audience.

What a wasted opportunity.
It certainly ticked all of the boxes as regards gender, ethnicity, disability etc of presenters, as do all TV programmes and films now.
Peter Snow was particularly irritating, as was the woman in the boiler suits and big hair.
I recorded them, so was able to fast forward.

While loving the fact that the programme's "studio" was the field, now the Aeropark at EMA, which was my go to Saturday plane watching location as a local Doningtonian kid, I couldn't quite tell who the target audience was. It was BBC4 - so a niche audience rather than mass audience. So why dumb it down with comments like "OOOH look, this is a big one." and calling the Flybe aircraft "30 year old propeller planes" ?
there are a number of YouTube videos which better demonstrate the extent of the nighttime cargo operation at EMA.
The BBC4 programme had some interesting VT segments, but was essentially 3 hours of live TV without a real objective.
