BBC to Broadcast Boat Kill Cord Video Monday 30 September 2013

We discuss and review the actual broadcast at BBC Kill Cord Investigative Report.

This page announced the program and covers how to “watch” the program until approximately Monday October 7th, 2013.

*******************

We just heard the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) will be broadcasting their boat kill-cord / lanyard kill switch short documentary film tonight, Monday September 30, 2013.

The film will be shown on “Inside Out South West” tonight at 19:30 on BBC1 in the South and South West of England.

The film will focus entirely on boat kill cord issues and the campaign to make their use mandatory.

Interest in boat kill cord issues soared after the Milligan family accident at Padstow Harbor in early May 2013.

The BBC kill cord video will then be viewable on iPlayer for a week. Just search for “Inside Out South West”

NOTE – iPlayer can only be used to view BBC programing from within the UK.

BBC has a global version of their iPlayer available for a fee in some countries, but not yet available in the U.S.

There are various techniques that can be used to watch from the U.S.. Among easiest approaches is TunnelBear (a VPN). They give you 500 MB of free viewing, which was far more than enough to watch this particular segment of the show once (it is the first segment of the show).

Anyway, please watch the show if you can and let us know what you thought. We will be posting our thoughts in a separate post soon.
