    Bitterly disappointed by this news but not suprised. Bernie’s been trying to get it on Sky for a few years now. The BBC has always been the best coverage as far as I’m concerned. I was so relieved when the ITV years were over. As for the Beeb still showing half of the races….I thought it was only going to be Monaco, Silverstone and one other from the end of the season?…not quite half then, just enough to say it’s still on the Beeb.

    Taking one of the most popular programmes that the BBC produces and giving it to Sky to cuts costs, just doesn’t hold water with me, what a joke. No loyalty to the British fans what so ever. I will not be buying Sky just to watch it thats for sure

    Thanks Bernie/BBC,… thanks alot 😡

    From a slide that I was given a few years ago. Taken at Goose Bay in about 1972, possibly earlier?…….XH558.

    Easy for me, Concorde. For some reason I always thought it would be around and I’d have enough money one day. I never made it…..how I miss it 🙁

    I’ve just spoken to the man himself and I’m happy to report he is well on the way to recovery. He is sounding particularly up beat and looking forward to getting home soon.

    Baz is able to see your coments as he has limited internet access at his bedside and they have made him smile 🙂

    Thank you to you all

    We were meant to have a Dominie fly through today, but cancelled due to W/X.
    Hopefully it will be re-arranged, I would like to see one for the last time.

    Had a Dominie fly through at Newquay today to say goodbye, cancelled from last week, tomorrow is the last day I believe……….all of a sudden I feel very old 🙁
