Audi Team Veloqx TV Program Channel 4
« on: September 21, 2004, 08:20:46 pm »
The UK terrestrial TV Channel Four has been following Allan’s sportscar team, Audi Sport UK Team Veloqx, over the last few months. The documentary, a series of five episodes, will be aired on Channel Four over the next five weeks.

Channel Four’s TV crew has followed Allan and the team through the ups and downs of a hectic and demanding season, starting in Sebring, Florida and concluding with the dramatic, fiery but ultimately successful finale at Spa Francorchamps in the Belgian Ardennes.

The series will start this Sunday 26th September at 8am and will be broadcast at 8am for the first two episodes and 8.30am for the remaining three. There will also be a repeat screening on the Friday following each programme.
 
Look out for action, insight and interviews from Allan and his Audi team mates

Good spot Chris - I've set a new Season Pass on the TiVo to capture them all...

That'll be the film crew that was lurking when CA members were chatting with Herby and Nishy. Must keep my eye out for CA t shirts...

As far as I can remember they were looking but not filming when we dragged Herbert from his well earned lunch at PQ.

Thanks for the notification. That time in the morning on a Sunday is not normally on my radar so far as TV viewing is concerned.

Just a note - the Channel 4 TV website lists the first program as going out at 07:55am, not 08:00 as stated above. So for those without clever recording equipment - set the program around 5 minutes extra either way (or get the kids to do it),  just in case.

It's frankly ridiculous! All the best motorsport progs on terrestrial tv seem to be on at silly times. From what I hear about it, it focused on Sebring, so I assume you've more chance of being on the one about Le Mans (maybe this Sunday?).

Agreed about the early transmission time, although I took the precaution of recording it and watching it later. Like the rest of us I'm not too keen on rising from my pit too early after a good night.

Having watched my recording I can confirm that the next edition is about Le Mans. The C4 website says transmission time is 08:00 Sunday,  so set your recording gear then watch later and keep your eyes peeled for C.A. T shirts.....

Who were the guys who did Christmas in yesterdays program ? We were gonna do that next year, can't do it now it's been done. That means we will have to have another drunken planning meeting to come up with another idea. Oh God it just gets worse and worse.

What about doing Diwali, Yon Kipur or even "Happy Honika", dressed up in the robes, false beards (Life Of Brian style).

What time did the prog go out ?

I set by HD to record it and only seemed to get half the show. Has it already been repeated ?
