TV Forum Regional News Christmas Tree Champion 2003

To get things under way, here is Calendar's splendid display complete with projected snowflakes on the floor !! Christine looks very proud, almost as if she decorated it herself. It's set the standard early on, so come on, how does your region compare ?

Lookaround usually have a good tree, but that awful studio spoils it.

Don't you just like all those camera angles used on Calendar there. Christine's glass of water moves all over the place between every shot!

HTV News here in Wales hasnt got an Xmas tree up yet AFAIK. But they are running a competion to find the best decorated house in Wales - although they did this competition last year

HTV NEWS WITH LUCY COHEN, JONATHAN HILL AND JULIET PIPER

Both BBC Newsline and UTV Live are running competitions to find the best (ie. over the top) decorated house exterior in Northern Ireland.

Newsline are judging the winner on Friday, their "celebrity" judge is Uncle Andy from "Give My Head Peace" and apparently the winner gets a "major" prize. Not sure whether UTV are ripping off... I mean using the same idea.

They should come to where I live, Lurgan - I've lost count how many houses have lights, illuminated Santas and inflatable snowmen in their garden. Wouldn't mind seeing their electric bill in January

Does Wales ever get a Christmas tree?

Tyne Tees TV's North East Tonight for once has gone Christmas mad, the set is covered in Xmas cards and fake presents, a nice fiberoptic tree (not the old white one) and there is holly all around the desk, and a nice green wreath on the wall.

You could almost call it Santa's Grotto.

Turning to the BBC...and Points West Christmas tree is now up and isn't Breakfast's going up ready for tomorrow?

Midlands Today had theirs up last night.

It went up last week but you only see it during the main programme.
Well no tree on East Midlands Today and Look East yet!!!
Also just to add a Christmas Tree appeared in the South Today Studio on Monday and Sally made out her she decorated it!! Ha!

I do love this time of year!

Well BBC LDN have their usual white tree in the background, but it's not very noticeable. They should use the space in the middle for one IMO, perhaps hanging from the ceiling where they are currently displaying that sculpture.

Ignore the Christmas appendages - that set is VILE .
