I just edited this map of the BBC Regions and I've labelled each region. I think it will appear small - sorry about that if it does!!

I'll upload it now.

Also does the South Today area now stick further upwards these days?

The split of the old South East region is something like this:

The purple area is now in the South region, the blue area becomes part of the new South East region, the green area forms the whole of the new London region.

Took me ages to do that map!

Ah - but not if you have your aerial pointing at Crystal Palace Smile

Nice map, but don't you think the BBC should change a few of their regional boundaries, I mean you can get Look North in almost East Anglia and Newsroom South East in the southern midlands! The title of each show is a bit of a contradiction if they are serving areas like that.

Of course both mine and itsrobert's maps show the editorial areas, which does not necessarily reflect what people are watching.

I know a lot of people in the Reigate area have their aerials pointing at Midhurst meaning they get South Today - but they would never cover our area in a million years!
