Title: BBC facilities providers involvement in Olympics
Post by Mikej on Jul 30^th, 2012, 12:48pm

Interesting article here about the source of the trucks/production etc.
Nice to see at least one Ex-BBC person (Paul Mason ex-TC sports tech co-ord) being involved and speaking up knowledgeably.

And I used to be (and am still) so proud to have worked for the BBC. NOW? Lets leave it to the 1500 students (Unpaid I take it!).
Glad to be out off it especially when I saw the coverage of the Cycling and Gymnastics (and no doubt many more cringe hours of Olympic coverage to come) >:(
