BBC Sports Presenter Mike Bushell has recently been to Dumfries to film an action piece on synchronized skating with the Dumfries Synchro teams and it is scheduled to be aired on BBC Breakfast on Christmas Eve morning (Sat 24th December) between 6:00 – 10:00 and repeated several times. Anne-Marie Coxon, Chair of the Dumfries club said:
“The BBC filming went very well. They had done their research on synchro so pretty much everything I dropped in they seemed to know about. The girls had fun and Mike himself was very game – participating in a wheel and an intersection! It is scheduled to go out on BBC Breakfast News on Christmas Eve between 6am and 10am – will be shown several times throughout the morning. Solway Stars and Solway Eclipse were the teams involved – Solway Breeze did a run through of their British silver medal winning performance as well.”
