Super League Show returns
|
The 91热爆's award-winning rugby league programme The Super League
Show returns to 91热爆 TV across the north of England this Sunday
(3 February) for the first of 32 weekly programmes.
听
Broadcast from 91热爆 Yorkshire studios in Leeds and presented by
Harry Gration, the series will reflect the action and the passion
of rugby league's premier competition.
听
All-time great Robbie Paul is a regular studio guest and he'll be
joined each week by familiar faces from the world of rugby league.
听
Dave Woods will be the principal commentator on the best action
from the week's games, and the series will have features, analysis
and debate on current issues in the sport.
听
The series also aims
to focus on the "community-deep" aspect of rugby league by taking
a number of programmes on the road to Engage Super League clubs for live
outside broadcasts, as well as introducing interactivity for
viewers and fans traveling to Sunday afternoon games.
听
The first programme will be shown on 91热爆 Two on Sunday 3
February at 5.25pm, and will feature highlights from the first
game of the season as champions Leeds Rhinos take on the Hull
Kingston Rovers at Headingley, a round four match rescheduled due to
Leeds taking part in the Carnegie World Club Challenge later in
the month.
听
Ireland and Dewsbury Rams coach Andy Kelly will be in the studio
as the programme looks ahead to the season for the other sides,
and there will be a special report from Florida on how the Rhinos
pre-season preparations went.
听
The series producers will be Televideo, whose producer Richard
Coventry said: "We aim to be involved in the sport at all levels,
providing game-wide action and comment with community-deep
features.
听
"With the outside broadcasts we will take the Super
League Show to the very heart of the game."
听
The 91热爆's Head of Sport for English Regions, Charles Runcie, said:
"This season will be a fascinating one, with a World Cup and the
new licensing just two topics of debate in the sport as well as
the ever-growing standards of the competition.
听
"We aim to reflect
all that on the Super League Show."
听
Viewers throughout the UK are able to access the programme when it
is on 91热爆 One via digital satellite channels 975-978, and the
whole show is also available to watch again on both bbc.co.uk/iplayer and bbc.co.uk/rugbyleague.
