Following the link, I noticed that this was #2 most watched after the Egypt protests. Pretty good result.
I'm picking up an improvement in the greater road using public's attitude to cyclists and I think that's being reflected in the media's presentation of cycling issues. It's certainly patchy outside London, but even relative cycling deserts link Basingstoke are becoming more a less confrontational place to ride.
I may not have been the best, but I think I was the first! Top tip - never collide with a cart made by the estimable coachmakers - Messrs Volvo and Sons. Their Barouches are particularly sturdy.

No surprises that Maggers, cyclechat's own Louis Spense, managed to get some air time.

That's still just the Benborp bit.

Liked the way the CTC guy ignored the lazy presenters question about whether car drivers could use cameras to report law-braking cyclists <yawn>.
Am I correct, that only the van driver assault resulted in a prosecution?
I watched this my 13yo D there is probably no way now I could persuade her to get on a bike again

Nice to see Cyclechat got a mention in the article (though I suspect we may be in for an influx of motoring trolls who read it!)

That first short clip is good - bus in ASL and taxi well past the stop line. But of course only cyclists RLJ !!!

Andy (of this parish) was confident the police were pursuing a carleess driving charge - but I do not know if it has gone to court or not. Anyone else?
Mag's incident has been covered in depth here and the PF's reason for not proceeding.

It is going to be on the 1 O'Clock news in a minute, so should be on at 6:00 as well.

Mine was the roundabout crash.
The driver got sent on an 'awareness course' as a result....
I did get a nice new bike and compensation from his insurance company.
CTC solicitors were very helpful.
Good to see CC mentioned on the Beeb. 
Good work by Admin and a few others to get us on there.

Yourself and mikey are also missing.
There are plenty of us out there that are doing many good things with cameras, all of us doing stuff differently.
I don't think they could have used better footage in the report. I certainly wouldn't have replaced any of my videos with theirs.
