Wanna be on TV?

Love Productions have been commissioned by a major broadcaster to make a new prime time series following British people on holiday in the UK this year. The programme, provisionally titled The Great British Holiday, will be an uplifting, warm documentary series that tells the story of families holidaying at Robin Hood Rhyl https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=14934, , Skirlington Leisure Park Skipsea https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1062, Coastfields Skegness and Clarach Bay Aberystwyth https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=3050.

They are interested in what people are hoping for from their holiday - whether that's reconnecting with loved ones, enjoying the local sights or simply getting away from it all - and any special reasons why you might be visiting a holiday park this year. Perhaps you are celebrating an important anniversary, planning your first holiday in a long time or looking forward to catching up with distant friends. They are particularly keen to hear from owners who have been enjoying breaks at one of those holiday parks for many years.

If this sounds like you then please email Holidaypark at loveproductions.co.uk with your contact details and one of their production team will get in touch.

Alternatively, you can call them on 020 7067 4820 and ask for the Holiday Park team

They seem to be mobile home parks but probably have touring and camping areas. We don’t go to those not our thing.

You couldn't pay ME to go to one of those places! Probably not the story the TV prog wants to hear!

I seek solitude, peace, and just the bare essentials of a CL site. Camera shy as well, so not seeking fame either!

Best wishes to anyone who does want to take part.

As Monty15 has said, we woulds not go to that type of site if they paid us.

To appear on something like that, you have to sign away any rights of how you appear, so you could end up having the p*** taken out of you and made to look a right idiot. All in the name of entertainment.

My Ex was interviewed by the BBC TV news, as a commuter caught in a massive disruption to trains in/out of London due to a derailment, they told a total pack of lies about her situation and how she had been affected, in the broadcast they made her look like a total Muppet waiting half a day for non-existent trains, when in fact she'd literally just walked into the station and unbeknown straight into the film crew as well! Edited out most of her interview and put their own (lying!) commentary over her film footage! You can't even trust the BBC news not to make a fool out of you on a serious and factual item!

A friend was on Dragons Den, they set him up from the start, he was never in with a chance of any backing, they just wanted someone to make a fool out of, and the Dragons to appear as savvy business people! Totally staged, not a minute of genuine unmanipulated footage, anything vaguely positive was edited out!

Never trust the media and certainly never sign your rights away! Dread to think what they could make of the people at these resorts!

We have been to Clarach Bay on many occasions over the last 45 years because my husband has family in that area. The Holiday Village has never really catered well for touring vans or tents and now doesn't take them at all.

I too would never volunteer for one of these programmes!

I might be interested.
Will we be expected to put various animal genitalia in our mouths, jump out of helicopters, bathe in a stagnant pool, and have tea with the Geordie-Nation Royal Family?

Sod it... I'm in!

Where's my phone...

Rhy is a place we have driven past, not felt the need to stop. Miles of mobile home parks.

Not our sort of site either. Nor am I that bothered about being on TV. We prefer the quieter more basic sites that the TV people would probably find quite boring.
