Caravanner of the Year on BBC this April!

It's on Gogglebox tonight

It did not surprise me in the least that COTY was edited to give maximum entertainment, to the detriment of us caravanners.

What does surprise me is the number of outraged members who are worried about the image it may have portrayed to none caravanners. I certainly do not go caravanning to impress any none campers and do not feel the need to justify why I do go. If you enjoy it, that’s all that matters.  

I though it was a farce, but does it really matter what image it projected? I can't imagine many non-caravanners sitting through it. 

Given the lack of any response from the Club concerning this matter I have today posted a letter (to the registered address) containing my formal complaint and a request that I be advised of the mechanism by which a member whose actions bring the club into disrepute can be sanctioned.

I can think of no other business or organisation that would tolerate such a gross error of judgement.

According to certain viewing figures only 1.3million people watched the first episode of COTY .It's safe to assume that even less will have viewed the second .In my opinion the only real damage caused was to GC,s "borrowed " van , as you can bet your next membership fee it wasn't his own.

Hi just read some of the early posts and later ones.Have I missed something,we have been in Tenerife for the past three weeks still two to go so looking forward to getting back to caravanning.

Hi have just noticed all the members that claimed it would be a good program to watch are suddenly quiet know,wonder why?

In my opinion these two programmes,parts1&2 have set the Caravan Club back many years. 

I don't know about that 'eddietheeagle', Eddie the Eagle in the 1988 olympics didn't seem to do much harm to the continuation of ski jumping

Correct, and how many BRITISH ski jumpers are there ?

That that would be, a whole NONE
