Have you actually been to one?

Well if you live in England or Wales great once again. Has it only been to Scotland once? I recall it was in Edinburgh.

Nicky do you work on it? Why no Scotland venues or indeed Northern Ireland ones?

Well well... Those who complain about the BBC being too London-centric will be happy, doesn't look like there are any dates in London this year.

And I like how that link at the top of the page, "Click here to find out where we will be", points to last year's information Rolling Eyes

Not really since you aren't the only one who pays for the license fee. If you don't like what the BBC spends the license fee, then stop watching TV and you won't have to pay for it.

Hopefully I'll be attending one Very Happy

I went to the Sheffield one last year and must say it was fantastic. I got to try loads of new things and it was a great all round experience. I'd recommend it to anyone with an interest in the news or television pres (which should be all of us forumers!)

I might go down to Hull this year, considering my brother is at Uni there.

I see they're going to bloomin' Levy-land.

Is there nothing the BBC won't do to promote that ultimate waste of space which is Hull?
