Just watched all 3 shows . All the shows are about the Motorhome and Caravan Show at the NEC.

Yes, I was a bit "disappointed" too. We watch all 3 programmes, one after the other and it's a bit naff that they have one presenter in a caravan on site A in Stoke Poges doing an article on the local flower beds or something equally enthralling, then "hey" in the next programme there's someone else in a motorhome on the same site reporting on tea rooms in Stoke Poges too. Whilst wearing an anorak. I don't know about anyone else, but I don't choose a campsite then think about what I can do in the local area, I develop an urge to go to a location, then look for a nearby campsite. The motorhome channel seemed to be mostly about van conversions. OK if you want one, a waste of airtime if you don't. Having started our motorhome shopping expeditions looking at van conversions nothing, except perhaps lots of cash, would persuade me to buy one. The caravan channel was somewhat more interesting in that there was actually some innovation shown, not that I want a caravan either, and could have watched more. It would have been too much to expect the makers to have ignored the NEC show though, don't you think?

I think since Practical Motorhome/Caravan have take over the program making it has all become a bit same old same old.
And I agree that they seem to be obsessed with van conversions, why are van conversion dearer that a coach built, doesn't make sense to me.
