Very different. And that\u2019s because the 13 tandems and solo were joined by Journalist Lisa and Cameraman Simon from ITV. Having seen the UK Cycling article that Judith recently wrote, they asked if they might come and film Trekkers. Well, we didn\u2019t need asking twice. And having already seen some of the footage and witnessed Jules, Judith, Martin and Keith being interviewed, (not to mention Guide Dog Tessa), I\u2019m confident the actual broadcast will be nothing short of mega-brilliant. So, providing nothing bumps our screening, please tune into ITV Calendar on Monday evening to see Trekkers on TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"352\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 640 \/ 352;\" width=\"640\" controls preload=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/fdb7427c-c354-4bb5-b547-88e6e2079c4e.mp4\" playsinline><\/video><figcaption>And now for something completely different.
