Sunday 19th August at 1900 - BBC2 Scotland, FreeSat, Sky and of course afterwards on iPlayer.
Uncertain if BTOC will also be featured but I know the producers are very pleased with the BOC element of the show.

Re: The Adventure Show - BOC 2018
Thanks for the heads up Freefall! Not sure I'll make the cut (hope not to be fair after getting to the start with no time to recover then having a nasty uphill grind through rough terrain only to meet a camera at the top
!!)

The British TrailO Champs segment will be shown in a later programme (to give it a longer time slot I'm told, though it's a pity it won't be shown alongside the Balmoral piece). But the producers say they're very pleased with what they've got.

BBC reporting BOC as "a supreme test of physical fitness and mental dexterity"

Decide if you are weekend enthusiasts or creme-de-la-creme

It was really good. Hope it spurs one or two of the more "experienced" orienteers on to getting new modern O tops though ![Smile :-)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: The Adventure Show - BOC 2018
One comment made by my wife was - no kids - so actually although it did portray orienteering as a spot very well, not so much the family aspects of the event. I presume that's an Adventure show brief as its really an adult oriented programme - did they mention this at all?

Re: The Adventure Show - BOC 2018
Andypat I did try and encourage The Adventure Show to include kids running, and on the site visit I introduced them to Sarah Dunn to reinforce this. We even suggested parts of the forest where there were juniors running in close proximity to seniors. So on a positive note we appeal to the adventurous seniors who want to get involved but the negative is that we miss out on the other target market or markets.

Re: The Adventure Show - BOC 2018
I was really impressed with the programme, and it was nice to see how they simplified the map to show the course layout for the elites to help non-orienteers understand the layout better.
I did think it was a shame they didn't try to post-process the chest cam stuff Oleg and Claire carried to try and stabilise it. It made it pretty tricky to see how fun running in terrain can be as it wobbled and blurred about all over the screen.
That was my only negative though, it's made me want to get out there again and do more!
