We are delighted to announce that our ‘Caravanner of the Year’ competition was filmed by the BBC and will be on BBC2 on 20 and 27 April!

We hope it gets you in the mood for getting out there and enjoying the summer season on our wonderful sites network.

The enthusiasts were faced with a variety of challenges covering activities such as manoeuvring, navigation, hospitality and caravanning knowledge.  There was also the precision challenge of the Concours D’Elegance which demanded much polishing and primping of their vehicles!

The first programme will introduce the entrants and whittle them down to the three finalists.

Tune in and watch, and don’t forget to tell your friends and family about it too!

 Oh I see now, being Chairman makes you one of the best 6 caravanners in the club irrespective of your competence. As I said earlier, just making the club look a laughing stock. Do you think he was on a backhander from JC or Gregorys?

The way Grenville Chamberlain's van got damaged was that, before they finalised the 'tasks' for the contestants, the judges tried the tasks first to check to make sure they were doable.  It appears that particular task was not doable!

Everyone in the Caravan Club had the choice of entering the competition.  For those who think they could do better, perhaps next year?? Laughing

Write your comments here...As a moderator, your defense of your chairman  has to be complimented. and expected from someone in your position

As a mere member, looking at the Video  I think that part of the course was poorly planned and exececuted by someone who hasn't the foggiest idea how to drive an outfit or think anything through properly. Any proper caravanner would know that that particular outfit had no chance of climbing that hill.  I do wonder if it really was his own van he damaged !! . 

Cool

Of course, we could always wait for the program to be shown on the telly before ripping it apart Undecided

Well we could, but not so much fun, and in any case someone at the CC or the BBC must have posted it to Youtube, so who?
