Three questions
!) How much is all this mega saturation coverage costing-I thought the BBC was short of money.
2) What UK audience figures are expected?
3) I wonder how these will compare to 2012?

News crews are in self catering apartments. Bet Clare Balding isn't washing her own nickers while doing the washing. Won't be watching anything  Smiley Cheesy Smiley

The BBC will argue that it's cheaper than the stuff it's displacing.  And that it automatically has the rights.

Me, I reckon that as no other broadcaster has tried to grab it that they don't expect huge audiences and thus be able to hike up advert rate.

So it's cheap enough for the beeb to not expect to be outbid.
