BBC Two Goes
Underground
Janice Hadlow, Controller, BBC Two, today announced a major
new documentary series with unique access to London Underground.
The 6x60-minute series, The Tube, takes viewers behind the scenes of the
world's oldest, biggest and busiest underground train network.
The series will tell the inside story of one of the most critical moments in
the tube's history as the underground network undergoes the biggest upgrade
of any railway system ever planned in the world.
Cameras will go to the places viewers have always wanted to
see – behind the hoardings to reveal the massive new engineering works,
inside the command centre to see what running this most complex of train
sets is really like and illuminating a hidden underground world that only
comes to life at night.

Overstaffing At Dale Farm
The BBC has been accused of "ludicrous over staffing" today
after a newspaper reported that it had more reporters than there were
protesters at the Dale Farm traveller eviction.
While the number of activists dwindled, the BBC still had six satellite
crews, a handful of local correspondents and a team of documentary makers on
the six acre site, according to the report.
They had their own caravan within the compound to provide accommodation and
refreshment for the 30 or so staff working on the story.
Don Foster, Liberal Democrats culture spokesman, said: "That is ludicrous
over staffing and hardly good way to get public sympathy for the 20 per cent
budget cuts facing the BBC."
The BBC's renting of the caravan even led to some light ribbing from their
rivals at ITV, who boasted they were making do with a tent.
Damon Green, the ITV News Correspondent, tweeted: "We have a tent, the BBC
have a caravan at DaleFarm. Delivering Quality First".
