BBC1 seemed to discover Shropshire for the first time on Sunday, with its double bill - Countryfile from "Long Mynd", followed by Antiques Roadshow from Ironbridge.

I think the evening must have been part of the BBC's remit to become less Londoncentric. I fully expect to see Claire Balding fronting wall-to-wall coverage of the Wenlock Edge Olympic Games, Ruth to be holed up in a safehouse in Ludlow, and Letitia Dean to open a gastropub in Telford...
