Long Way Round - Sky One 9pm Tonight - SV650.org

18-10-04, 08:13 AM

Kicks off tonight, detailing Ewan MGregor & his friend's trip from London to NY on GS1150 Adventurers.

Really looking forward to this as I've always harboured ambitions for a similar type of round the world tour. Maybe one day I'll actually start saving for it!

I wanted to watch "Spooks" on BBC1 but I was over-ruled by Mrs Jabba. Honest

I'm at work tonight, so I was gonna ask my missus to tape it... If she decides she isn't watching something first

Mind you, it's repeated on Sky Travel on Wednesdays isn't it

18-10-04, 08:35 AM

so how long do I have to wait until it arrives on "normal" telly?

probably by the time it does get to BBC I could have done my own trip!

It was filmed by 'SKY' so the chances of it being on 'normal' tele are slim... Mind you, there's always Channel 5, they seem to buy a lot of stuff off SKY

OK then, I better start my own adventure to make up for it

Just finished the book, then saw the advert for the documentary.
Should be good fun if its anything like the book.

Review
Documentary series following actor Ewan McGregor and best friend Charley Boorman as they undertake a mammoth motorbike ride from London to New York - going the long way round.

I realise that it has been pointed out that it's on Sky Travel already, but I figured that as it took me a moment to realise that it was a freeview channel, I'd try and help everyone else out...

Sent this to MCN .... You never know they MAY do something about it !!

lol !!

What a fantastic programme last night on Sky TV ! Im enthralled already and salivating over the thought of the forthcoming programmes. However being loath to pay Murdoch any more money I can only watch Sky One at work - so having sat there and read this weeks MCN, I noticed that Ewan pays homage to the support that MCN gave them. So come on, how about you and Sky getting together and releasing the series on DVD or Video so us poor non-Sky viewers can see it ? Im going to buy the book anyway but its always nice to watch it as well !
