We're seeing if we can record digitally. Can anyone help if we can't?

cheers

All BBC regions are free to air on satellite

Which region is it on, BBC South ?

I will be away for the weekend but would be interested in watching a recording or repeat,

G.

I have set my PVR to record this.
I can grab the recording from it to a PC if needed, just involves a little bit of hard disk juggling...

Its on now. How dare they mention crash on Sunday telly

Good viewing i hope it is uploaded soon

Local Vicar is preparing for rise in homelessness if recession is going to happen

the public txts and emails are pretty bearish

the public have spoken

Um being blonde, I set the tele to switch to the Poliitics show at 12, which it did BUT a different version/wrong channel - by the time I realised what had happened, I onlygot to watch the last 15 mins which was good! (Little did I realise loads a channels showing poitics show but different subject matter) Sounds like somebodys smart enough to be putting it online where I can catch the beginning of it too.

Caught the last 15 minutes with FP, a slimy Labour MP (saying there was no evidence of a crash "yet" and it's irresponsible to "pretend" otherwise) and Hampshire Economic Partnership dude.

It was very good, FP cool as a cucumber. Looking forward to seeing the rest.

I'm just looking for a tool to convert to mpeg now.

Youtube didn't work as the clip was too long (over 10 minutes). I've uploaded to the media folder on HPC:

The Labour MP was a bit bullish at the beginning of the show, going on about 'plateau' and 'levelling out', really not having a clue on what he was on about, reading from the party spin book, I suppose. But by the end he could tell he was outgunned and lined himself up leaning towards FP`s point of view. The guy in the middle was a total waste of widescreen, complete muppet. FP, how you manage to compose yourself is admirable. Good showing.

I didn't realise it would kick off in Reading, the very place I'm buying into soon! Thanks for that, I'm downloading it now, should be very interesting!

The best part about this piece was that the journo seemed to grasp the concept that the whole "lack of supply" argument is bunkum.
He even read out a text from a viewer saying that high house prices are a product of OVERSUPPLY OF CREDIT AND NOT UNDER SUPPLY OF HOUSES.

EXACTLY - this is the point !! And it seems to be getting through to the media. And in this program, maybe even the MP , I hope the govt gets the message.
Though I think the financial industry will be correcting this problem itself via the credit crunch anyway.

FP's tactic of saying little, but using words carefully is the best way forward.
The public like sound bites. Everyone understands them.

FP probably needs a sound bite answer to the "but you have been predicting a HPC since 2005" argument. But just ignoring it was the best way forwards in this case.

(I am also just transcoding a copy.
But I see that paulm beat me to it. Thanks paulm ! )

Here's a link to the clip on the BBC, you might need to choose your media player and connection speed.

Clicky

Your link is to the show in the Midlands. Can you change it?

Very strange, the link works for me? Try this one instead Clicky

Or failing that go Here, scroll to the bottom of the page and you will see the 'watch' button for the South edition of the Politics Show.

Thanks for trying, but all I´m getting is some bloke in a horrible mustard jacket talking about the Midlands and I definitely clicked on the South option!

N.B. The Midland´s one still has the horrible mustard jacket too!

Damn it - the original link has totally gone. I had it posted on the Norwich/Norfolk section and noticed it had changed there - gone for good?
