Wanted by the BBC

Post by Moose » Wed Jan 20, 2016 5:04 pm

Hi, we have had a request from the BBC for a feature in the BBC One Show. – Details below.

“To celebrate the final Land Rover Discovery coming off the production line, we are making a film all about the history of the car due to broadcast a week on Friday (29th). The film is due to look at the cars final journey and some other events associated with it.

In the studio after, we would like to hear from Land Rover Discovery owners who have incredible stories about their cars. It could be anything from someone having a baby in the back, to a cow being saved on a farm because of the Discovery . We just want to hear some amazing stories.”


At the moment they just want to get lots of peoples stories. If these are what they want there is a possibility of telling the story on the show a week on Friday, 29th January, in London.

If you have a story to tell please get in touch with me or Chris Heaton via PM or mail with some brief details of your account and we will pass this on. please be quick. I have no further details at the moment.

As a few folks have pointed out they are more likely to be after Defender stories, they have difficulty knowing a Jeep from a Land Rover so I am now not over hopeful, still I dare say Roger could use your stories.

Thanks for your PM reply :D You would think that they would do some basic homework before going public :( typical of to-day's sloppy general attitude to almost every thing :cry:
