TV Blue Peter tomorrow

racebusiness · 10 Nov 2005, 08:29 (Ref:1456994)

Relevancy = 0.............anyway;

I hear 'Blue Peter' has an item from Three Sisters tomorrow featuring the Forti Corse from '96, which presenter Zoe has to drive in their 'presenter challenge'. I believe Katherine Legge is the instructor for the day.

Three Sisters is a circuit

OK thank you, for me here in Canada, a little introduction would have been necessary :-)

Rob29 · 10 Nov 2005, 13:05 (Ref:1457210)

Three Sisters is a go-kart track.
BBC1-5pm tomorow (Friday);'Zoe tries her hand at Formula One' Should be a laugh?

It's also a sprint circuit, motorbike race circuit, motorcross circuit and single-stage rally venue. Very nice it is too

Yes, sorry about that, I was trying to keep it necessarily short! Apologies Dan, and don't worry if you don't get to see it, I heard she was awful.

Apart from ...

1) the pot holes in the paddock;
2) the need for the circuit to be completely resurfaced;
and
3) the toilets which are in danger of falling down.

I suppose it's OK for a kart track!

I'll need to keep an eye on BBC-Kids and watch any Blue Peter episodes I spot now. I have no idea about its times on said channel, but I assume it must get shown at some point.

Blue Peter denied that they were "sexing up" when they appointed Zoe as a presenter.

She is a former Miss Northern Ireland, in her early 20s and has blonde hair down to her perfectly proportioned waist.

But can she drive an F1 car?

Suze · 10 Nov 2005, 17:15 (Ref:1457362)

is that a requirement then too, in your book?!

I have had a look about there, but the problem is that gives UK programming. I am meaning a channel called BBC-Kids that is shown in Canada.

It isn't a big deal, I have TV guides at home; both paper and interactive.

I'll find out.

Suze · 10 Nov 2005, 19:53 (Ref:1457496)

You can do F3 experiences there, and also an F1 I believe (there's an advert that pops up on here from time to time but I can't remember for where, thought it was Three Sisters). Can also do an F1 experience at Mallory in what I believe is a '96 car.

More info on the BP thingy is here http://www.racing-school.co.uk/lates...ter041105.html
According to the above it was the

who flew in to teach Zoe in FF, F3 and the F1 car, as well as Neil Boardman, the guy that runs it the Three Sisters race cars.

Thanks,At least we have now tracked down where Sarah Kavanagh is hanging out;Her website has not been updated since early this year.

Suze · 11 Nov 2005, 11:37 (Ref:1458010)

Not so sure she's hanging out there Rob...said she flew in.

Thats what I meant where she flew in FROM-Nice.Seem to remember now,her manager/boyfriend? was restoring a house there.

Suze · 11 Nov 2005, 13:33 (Ref:1458092)

Fair enough, thought you meant she was hanging out at Three Sisters....

Incidentally, why did they think it was necessary to have a female instructor fly in as it's a female presenter? Nice touch, or to show women are out there? Really doesn't bother me, but just thinking.

racebusiness · 11 Nov 2005, 18:31 (Ref:1458347)

She lives in Dublin but is a fundraiser for the Princess Grace Hospital in Monaco. The actual TV piece was seriously bad! They shouldn't have bothered.
