Does anyone know why tonight's episode was cancelled?

[ibizaboy]

ah ha, glad im not the only one asking this question.!!

[Old_Geezer]

The wrong kind of sunlight on the line.

[melv16]

At a guess it could be something to do with holocaust day?

[Caran]

I had it set to record the whole series. It recorded eggheads instead.

[Mamyalynne]

I can't confirm the truth of this but...

//It was due to the murderer of Milly Dowler confessing to the crime today. Milly got off the train at Walton on Thames station and was last seen alive close by.//

[naomi24]

I wondered too. Where did that come from, Mamyalynne?

In tonights show he was due to visit a crematorium.With it being Holocaust day perhaps that's why it was cancelled .That's what has been suggested on the Points of View site .

I doubt it has anything to do with Levi Bellfield. The area where he murdered Marsha McDonnall is covered in tomorrow`s episode but that is still scheduled to be shown.

[Mamyalynne]

The Facebook queries must be wrong then, tonight's synopsis...

//Woking to Walton-on-Thames
Great British Railway Journeys, Series 7

Michael Portillo's journey through the home counties continues at Woking, Surrey, where Michael uncovers the story of Britain's first purpose-built crematorium, a response to overcrowded cemeteries and London's ever-expanding population. A trip to world-famous Wisley Gardens sheds light on the work of the Royal Horticultural Society, as Michael gets green fingered.//


Milly Dowler

Disappearance[edit]
At 3:00 pm on 21 March 2002, Dowler left Heathside School to go home on the train. She got off at Walton-on-Thames railway station, one stop before her usual stop of Hersham

[Mamyalynne]

There'll be a valid reason I'm sure.

[237SJ]

They`re just peoples` opinions on Facebook. I don`t really see what any of that has to do with why the programme was cancelled.

[Mamyalynne]

No.

[tonyav]

Levi Bellfield has finally confessed apparently.

[Mamyalynne]

I said that earlier Tony - heigh ho.

[Mamyalynne]

Maybe the BBC didn't like Michael's jacket in tonight's episode.

[naomi24]

Ahhh.

[tonyav]

Ah right, so you did Mamya. Sorry about that.

[237SJ]

Levi Bellfield murdered Marsha McDonnell when she got off the 111 bus from Kingston (blimey, the times I have done that!). That is pretty near Hampton Court where tomorrow night`s episode is concerned with. Maybe that episode will be cancelled - if it is then maybe it will be due to his confession but I doubt it.

[Mamyalynne]

My fault really, when I said " I can't confirm the truth of this but.." I meant that this was the reason why , I knew the confession was true.
