Heather Cooper has just been on BBC News 24 emptying a bucket full onto
the BBC as well. She made some very good points about putting more science
on mainstream TV. However, "Celebrity Dogging" is more up the BBC's
passage these days.

Apparently Sir Patrick has written a personal appology to Piers Sellars.
Decent chap.


You know "Celebrity Dogging " is very apt. The BBC just love Moore, Stan
Collymore the failed footballer celebrity dogger. He is to appear in a
fantastic new BBC2 production about a rape trial whereas our misunderstood
Stanley is one of the jurors.

Yes with that lot at the BBC Patrick Moore is less and Stanley Colly is
more.

I have no doubts whatsoever that the plonker irresponsible has the PM's
closest support and that he will stand by him. **** sticks as well as
it stinks.

You having the frame of mind to watch that crap these days?

Maybe some of the posters on this thread should take a moment to climb down
off their own particular high horse and have a look at the TV schedule. Sky
at Night is on 4 times this week. Tomorrow morning on BBC 1, tomorrow night
at 19:30 on BBC4, Tuesday morning at 02:45 on BBC4 and Saturday at 12:30.
The BBC4 version is ten minutes longer.
I would agree that the BBC science coverage has been well below what I would
want it be, although it is far better than any of the other terrestrial
channels. I'm not quite sure how many of the comments about the BBC have
anything to do with the scheduling of the Sky at Night. I'm pretty sure that
gender and sex issues are low on the list of priorities when deciding when
we should see Sir Patrick.

I'll be at work on Monday morning and probably out shopping like the
rest of Britain on Saturday at about 12:30. Do people actually watch
BBC 4?

How interesting.

For whatever reason, when Weatherlawyer began the thread, he crossposted
to uk.sci.astronomy and uk.sci.weather. Subsequent posts have maintained
the crossposting. I've set follow-ups to my post to be to uk.sci.weather
only.
