Southport Flower show

David Bellamy was on hand at the southport flower show 2009 as the BBC Bus was used by BBC Radio Merseyside and BBC Radio Lancashire.

Four days of hard work and fun as the bus became a focal point of the show to find out what the final ashes test score was.

With England doing so well in the test the bus got very busy at times. England did go on to win and oh yes there where some flowers at the show, not just Andy Flower's lads.

Last day of the last Royal Show

The sun has come out for a few hours at least at the Royal Show. And the stars of Radio are out too.

As Liz Kershaw broadcast for BBC Coventry & Warwickshire, Nicky Cambell broadcast his show on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Later the BBC C&W will broadcast as the show ends for the final time.

The Royal Show (day one)

The first day of the very last Royal Show in Stoneleigh was a bit of a washout really. Thunder and lightening kept people away and the BBC Cov & Wark staff dried out on the bus.

We did broadcast a full show from the bus but numbers where down.

3 more days to go. Hope it's better weather for them.
