At this rate, the next place will be Derby. :-\
Shame really, as they only seem to be visiting destinations upto an hour away.

I highly doubt that they will go over an hour or an hour and a half away as then petrol will be very expensive, and if they go to Scotland or Cornwall, then they will have to pay for accommodation for everyone for a night, so it's cheapest to stick to close towns.
Shame really, for people who live hours away.

At this rate they'll end up departing from Churchill China in a week or two.

If thats true, my dream of them coming to my home town is shot down, as the shortest distance between it and alton is 59 miles :'(

Why on earth are they sending it down the road?!
What a joke.
This is not a patch on last summer's advertising campaign with the All Time Greats.
And if they are only going within a 50 mile radius, how come they are rallying for more votes for cities like Cardiff, Norwich and Plymouth?

Would render the entire thing basically useless if they only go within 50 miles. The whole premise is that it enables people who otherwise wouldn't be able to go, to go. It would be easy to get to AT from Wolverhampton and ADLZ so let's hope that people trending the stunt from further afield get their chance later on.
