Topcat2018 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I look forward to that. Is it definitely a completely new series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkRedCape Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I’ll watch, but I felt like the last series was padded with too much silly stuff. Some episodes on layouts and actual loco use and maintenance would be very enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engine shed 1 Posted January 7, 2023 Author Share Posted January 7, 2023 Yes definitely new series apparently it's been done by a different production company or changed producer if directer so its been done slightly differently according to the Hornby guys that I spoke to at the Milton Keynes model railway show last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We'll all be keenly looking for several things I'm sure:How much is mentioned of TT120 - very important to Hornby's future obviously.How many locomotives are to get the metal running boards ... to become standard fitment?Progress on the new 'synchrosmoke' or whatever it's going to be called now.Turbomotive and P2 - any production examples presented?Many more besides - the Black 5 - will we see an example of each variant to be produced?How about a Jubilee to join them? ....Al.

Bulleidboy Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 This will be in Episode 1 - The iconic Locomotive Flying Scotsman is scaled down 120 times from real life, rendering some features almost invisible to the naked eye, or too small to even mould.Episode 2 - Young designer Prad has just 30 days to reinvent the model railway starter kit, while musician and host Jools Holland reveals his incredible 45-foot layout hidden away in his loft.

SteveM6 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I suspect they didn’t want to give away too much about tomorrow’s product launch ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribeye Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 The programme did not broadcast as scheduled. I was advised through SKY TV that a new date is to be announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Spare Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 @DeemThank you for posting the new broadcast times - I have made a note of them in the hope the 'editorial problem' will have been sorted out by Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VESPA Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 @deam,Thank you for the revised timings. Lets just hope we are not broadcast another Secret Weapons of WW2. Worse still, a programme about the Beatles incorporating Hornby Beatle wagons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NobbyClark Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I thought my TV's timer had messed up again (it has form) but glad to read it's been rescheduled to Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potterton Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Like everyone else I was disappointed with what happened last night.However, I had to chuckle when I saw Christopher Stevens' review of last night's TV in todays Daily Mail. He has written a complete write up of "what was on" i.e. what was supposed to be on. Wonder where he got his information from. Incidentally, he gave it four out of five stars. Mind you, I didn't go much on his review. He talks about product director Simon Kohler, having run out of vintage steam engines to recreate in miniature, has come up with the "brilliant idea of doing all the same trains...but even smaller." [unquote] obviously referring to TT120. He then goes on to say, "It seems a counterintuitive choice: I'd have expected that enthusiasts would demand bigger models with more visible detail." [unquote] Admittedly he does also state "but then, I'm not a collector."Having seen that Deem has said it will be shown on Thursday I've just had a look at the on screen TV listings on Freesat, (my provider), and it does indeed list it as being on Thursday at 2100 hours. However, according to the listing it is not the programme that was due to be shown last night. It says, "Merchant Navy: A perfect diecast replica of a Merchant Navy steam locomotive is the task for Hornby's design team. Engineer Chris tries to capture the authentic sounds of a Light Pacific loco."I'm sure this is a repeat from the first series. I distinctly remember seeing the chap recording the sounds with an extended microphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulleidboy Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 It still says Series 1 Episode 1 on SKY for Thursday, with the same picture Deem has shown - it says the programme is all about down sizing a Merchant Navy Class. Will just have to watch and see what I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topcat2018 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I had set episode 1 up to record on Monday before I learned that it wasn't being shown then. To my surprise when I checked the programmes on the hard disk it said it had recorded "Hornby, A Model World".It actually turned out to be an episode of "World War Weird"!
