Revival on TV

[CivicMan]

" For anyone that missed the action over the weekend, the 2010 Revival will first be shown on ITV4 at 20:00 (8pm) on Monday 27 September, and repeated again on ITV4 at 18:00 on Sunday 10 October (directly after the Touring Car coverage) "

totally agree so many of their programmes are padded out by "still to come" , must save them 15 minutes of actual substance every hour they do , for the word "save" read "lose".

And don't forget;
"What brings people back to the Revival time & time again is the fashion," followed by ten minutes of hooray henrys in RAF uniforms, the Glam Cab girls, some old bloke dressed head to toe in tweed, a Twiggy look-a-like, some Mods standing next to a Vespa & those Laurel & Hardy impressionists. And if we are really lucky, an interview with Wayne Hemmingway.

How could I forget the Hooray Henry's!!!! Of course, they are the true motor racing fans!!!!! They know SSOO much about the cars & drivers.....

Well you got that prediction about 100% wrong!

Well that was that then , somehow the atmosphere never quite comes across on TV , just going to go all three days next year.

I completely forgot all about the programme.

I loved the TV programme... is the DVD much better and mainly just racing?

Did anyone else catch the value of the grid for the final race... I thought he said "a quarter of a million pounds" and laughed to myself... then I realised what he ACTUALLY said.

Blimey!

You should get a lot more racing on the DVD.

Last year the DVD consisted of an extended version of the ITV4 programme plus coverage of all the races.

The TV programme featured a brief interview with one of the circuit's mentors , he commented that the circuit should have run anti-clockwise instead of the traditional clockwise rotation for the main reason that the chicane would not have been required. I find that layout really hard to visualise and let's face it there are very few anti-clockwise circuits in existence , it just wouldn't work , surely ?
