Letchworth on TV

Apparently a TV documentary on the town is being broadcast next Wednesday on BBC2 (7.00 to 7.50). Doesn't have any rugby in it, but might be worth a look nonetheless.

Its in a series called "Jonathan Meades: Abroad Again" and the BBC2 website says:

Britain is the most overcrowded of European nations: as a result, we fled in search of rural utopias called garden cities of which Letchworth was the first. A social experiment, its legacy is Britain's ubiquitous, banal sprawl. Yet it all started so charmingly with naked dew-bathers, vegetarian mystics and sandal-makers roaming through Hertfordshire clay fields.

If you've not seen Meades before think of a sort of high-brow Jeremy Clarkson who has developed an interest in architecture rather than cars.

I hasten to add that I am not in this one. However, if you catch CBBC's "Newsround" tomorrow...
