Recording Times what do ya think

Post by Mark Mills »

Ok just got recording dates through for audience and some of the days are three sessions and not the usual two, the times are 9:15 till 12:30, then 12:45 till 16:00 then 16:00 till 19:15 who thinks this is too much for one day, or maybe a good idea, I am guessing that means that they will record 7 or 8 shows on these days, most other dates are normal 5 shows but there are a few with these times.
Married to Tracey Mills but please don't be put off. :D

I bet it will just be 6 shows (2 in each session) like they did for the Series 68 finals.

It's every Tuesday until mid October, with the exception of next Tuesday (July 14).

Aren't you recording on a Tuesday, Tom??

Are the extra recording times for specials? I hope so
Definitely not Jamie McNeill or Schrodinger's Cat....

I am indeed! I have three games that day and they said my first is at 2:45, which makes sense based on what Mark said. I don't know the normal times though. Thanks

Three games - is that spoilers for games that haven't even been recorded yet?

Just realised that the first episode in Dan Walker's run in DC is the day after he makes his official debut as the new presenter of Breakfast.

1) Was this planned?
2) Will Walker have known about this before this and so be introduced as the new Breakfast presenter, and so the audience would be sworn to secrecy until earlier today?

Well, he had been guest presenting recently, so they must've been testing him out...
