Try different BBC regions
Purely out of curiosity, I decided tonight to try an alternative regional BBC news programme.
When the main 6 o'clock news finished on BBC1, I picked a region at random and went to channel 949 (BBC W Midlands) to see some local news from a different part of the UK. Main Headline Story..... Some trees close to Coventry Airport may need to be cropped a few metres as they are too tall. I guess some regions have no news. Still, must not grumble. "no news is good news" Usually, my home region (BBC East East) is full of sickening crime. Tomorrow I will try a different region. What will be the main headline down in the South West?

Brendan Well, tonight at 7.30pm I watched BBC1 Leeds. Their version of Inside Out reported on security lapses seen at Humberside International Airport, a man who blows up potential avalanches in the Alps, and the story of a Hull fishing fleet that nearly caused a war with Russia 100 years ago. It sure beat Coronary Sheet. -- Carl
