27/12/2012 2000hrs
Sir Stirling Moss (profiled by Patrick Stewart)

28/12/2012 2000hrs
Colin McRae (profiled by Sir Chris Hoy)

29/12/2012
Sir Jackie Stewart (profiled by James Martin)

I cannot see a listing for the Jackie Stewart program in the Radio Times (should be 1915-2015hrs) so it maybe re-scheduled to a later date?

You sure ?

BBC Two England Schedule shows Stirling Moss on tomorrow and Jackie Stewart the following night and nothing about McRae.

Pages 162 of the Radio Times refers:

"Six times Olympic gold medallist Sir Chris Hoy pays tribute to Colin McRae".

Also article on page 160 Friday choices.

Sir Chris drives a sister car to Colin's Prodrive Impreza:

According to Ken Blocks page it states that Racing Legends Collin Mcrae is on tomorrow night 28th dec..



""Ken Block
I slayed some tires and hung out with these guys (Jimmy McRae and Sir Chris Hoy) a little while ago for part of a BBC documentary on my all-time favorite rally driver and friend, Colin McRae. That documentary airs TOMORROW in the UK, and there’s something AWSM that goes down that I haven’t been able to show you yet. Check it out tomorrow night on BBC 2 to see!""

sadly this is becoming normal for the Beeb (espcially on bbc3 and 4) - only showing part of series.... e.g. showing Kill Bill 1 earier in the year, then wait 3 months before showing KB2 !!!!! - (i know it has been on agn recently... )

Colin will probably be on sometime in the nxt 3 months ........

Thumbs up

Best 1 hour of television for months.

Sir Stirling and Sir Patrick are outstanding - makes me proud to be British.

A Vanwall would have a space in my 10 car garage.

The first thing I thought about was regarding the circumstances of the heli crash. Complaint perhaps? Or erring on the side of caution after the recent BBC faux pas?

Whatever it may be, they need to inform whether it'll ever be on really.

A friend who's a motorsport journo told me that there are "copyright and licensing issues". Not sure exactly what the problem is but I hope it get's sorted as apparently it's a cracking programme.
