Dear Customer,
This Tuesday, the 18th January, at 9:50 pm, BBC TWO is broadcasting a 40
minutes documentary on SpeedFerries.
The show is part of the ""Trouble at the Top" series, as you can read
in the BBC TWO listings.
As the BBC has been filming many times throughout 2004 on the
Dover-Boulogne service, and during this time hundreds of customers have
asked SpeedFerries to be informed when the program would be on the air.
Accordingly, we are now forwarding this information.
I thank you for helping us to establish this brand new low cost ferry
concept by travelling with us.
Best regards
SpeedFerries Limited
Whats going on?
Sorry Tripps, only food IIRC was croissants and coffee and perhaps some other pastry type stuffs.
clearance up the ramps looked OK but headroom drops down to about 6' up near the top, should be good for lots of start-up type noises
Will also be some reversing and manouvering from the upper sections to get the cars back out.

sainsbury's was on it last week, but i was expecting a program about their troubles with competing with tesco/asda but instead it showed a succesful clothing launch
despite the name "trouble at the top", i'm sure it'll be nothing but good publicity...
top gear has used speed ferries twice with no clearance issues and both times clarkson has got his "bacon and eggs"

Problem is, when you have a few low/wide cars its OK they place you specially, but the 7:45 crossing has a lot of PH cars on there and we may not all be able to go on the lower floor in prime locations...
Last year Lake's Cerbera and an Aston got special places and could open doors and get out without issue, where-as myself in the Cupra-R was squashed between supports (both going and coming back) and both myself and passenger struggled to get out without damaging the paintwork.
I'll suggest to those with convertibles to leave their roofs off!
Dont forget fellow Bookers

Best we dont make the same mistake as the Ferrari, take it easy on those ramps people.
I saw that one of panicked, just hope they've got a longer exit ramp now, as otherwise those of us with a longer wheelbase could have problems
Methinks your Griff will be alright, it has a pert nose and bottom, but the Chimaeras, Cerbs and V8Ss might have problems...
