Broadcast date set for capital-based TV show Spotting London’s Supercars
THE broadcast date for a new TV documentary shining the spotlight on London’s automotive paparazzi has been revealed by Sky, Freesat and Freeview.
Officially hitting the TV guides yesterday, Spotting London’s Supercars will air on Tuesday, December 21 at 11am, exclusively on Spotlight TV.
The Make UK TV original, by director Harry Rutter, will be available on Sky channel 365, Freesat channel 500 and internet connected Freeview channel 264.
It follows Britain’s ‘Carparazzi’; young automotive photographers who are not interested in the rich and famous people, but the cars that they drive.
Speaking after making his director and executive producer debut, Harry said: “It all just feels real now and I’m so excited for people to watch the show.
“It has been a year in the making and the entire programme is full of my blood sweat and tears,” he joked. “This really is a dream come true.”
The show’s production time was cut in half when the Government announced a Tier 3 lockdown in London at the beginning of 2021.
Harry added: “We were left with no choice but to sit there doing nothing, we posted some engagement posts on social media but didn’t want to lose the buzz.
“Finally, the Government announced the film and TV restart scheme which gave us the green light to begin filming across the UK and our beautiful capital city.”
Make UK TV had to follow strict production guidelines and were assisted by local police forces during filming days to ensure a Covid safe working environment.
“The police have been great, the process was fairly smooth sailing as we were well prepared, lots of things in place including PPE and strict track and trace during shoots.
“I wouldn’t change the process at all, I’m just so glad it’s all come together now and finally people will get to watch what we’ve been working on all year.”
Harry added: “There’s something for everyone, from hypercars to supercars and even a highly modified TikTok famous Nissan Micra – if you love cars, you’ll love Spotting London’s Supercars.”
Spotting London’s Supercars airs on Sky channel 365, Freesat channel 500 and Connected Freeview channel 264 on Tuesday, December 21 at 11am – exclusively on Spotlight TV.
