RE: Isle of Man TT Races continues regeneration programme with new TV company
Looks like North One were too greedy or incompetent after all, and lost the BBC, this is a big dissapointment after their 'exciting' proposal served to dump the long standing Greenlight. David Cretney's sympathetic statement in parliament for Greenlight now makes it clear he 'may' have known what was going to happen.
Wonder what was wrong with a 4 year deal with the BBC, one of the biggest and most respected broadcasters in the world, if it wasn't money? Are they too old fashioned, too concervative, too traditional or just too professional and well run?
Well let's hope ITV will bring the TT into the lounge rooms of some more potential TT enthusiasts and future visitors to the Island that the BBC may not have reached.
Rest in Peace Don Simons 1942 - 2012
