I wonder if it was people trying to protect the peace and tranquillity of the Broads doing some tactical voting that led to the Norfolk Broads being voted ‘most boring destination‘ after Blackpool Pleasure Beach, and Bournemouth & Poole by travel site TripAdvisor. Or is it that some people find calm, beauty, nature, serenity, relaxation etc. is boring?
Well I don’t care - the more the public discover its charm the more people will come, and it won’t be so charming.
Personally, I can’t get enough of the place.
I don’t often get excited by hyped ‘multimedia extravaganzas’, but this time I think the BBC has done something really special - starting on Sunday on BBC1, Britain from Above was plugged in a press release as “a landmark series of documentaries – filmed in HD – spanning BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Four and bbc.co.uk, Britain From Above will change the way viewers see the nation for ever.”
The website has gone live in the last day or so, and certainly seems to be more than just a token attempt at supporting web content. There’s loads of web special short clips (including one about Happisburgh), links to additional information, and does an excellent job - I’m looking forward to interacting with it all - TV and web.
