Title: "London to Brighton in four minutes" - the second remake Post by: stuving on August 27, 2013, 19:08:08 BBC South Today are trailing a re-make of "London to Brighton in four minutes", accompanied by comparisons with the 1953 and 1983 versions. It should air tomorrow, presumably at 18:30. I'm not sure what you can do with that if you are out of area, as it's not on iPlayer.

Not a BBC production, but there is a 2006 time lapse on YouTube too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDGhZB7HTPMTitle: Re: "London to Brighton in four minutes" - the second remake Post by: stuving on August 28, 2013, 08:51:11 The three versions side by side, moderately well synchronised, are currently on BBC Sussex at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-23853863 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-23853863), and also on Facebook (I didn't note exactly where).

Not sure about cable. South Today is available for 24 hours after broadcast through the BBC South page.

Assume that they could only put a camera on the rear of the train and then play it backwards.
