I dont think the Government paid anything towards paying for the filming of the MGP. Maybe Greenlight done some filming as a gesture to help the MGP at their own costs



I was quoting what was said to me by the nice people in Dukes shop behind the Grandstand



I asked this question of Greenlight at the end of 2009 but thought Id deleted the reply, however I have now found it , it reads:-

Thank you for your mail. The reason we dont film it, and I guess others dont also, is that the way the sports television world works these days you have to get income from a sponsor, or organiser, to fund the production. With S100 we received some contribution from the organisers and donated the remainder ourselves by form of sponsorship to help the club. We cant afford to do that for both events unfortunately.

Hope this answers your question.

Kind regards

etc etc
