On November 2nd 2015, we were featured on the BBC One Show removing a net from a marine conservation zone. We had already arranged to do it, a friend was filming, the BBC heard about it and asked if they could film it. So they did, and the insert was 4 minutes long. We have embedded it into out website - http://www.atlanticscuba.co.uk - it's just below the scroll line. It all went well and we have had some good feedback. The insert was even featured as PADI's video of the week.
Our last major TV appearance was on BBC local news, which went national, then global. It gave us 50,000 unique visitors to our website. The One Show never even caused a small peak in visitors.
So what next? We have been discussing our own program, which has developed into several options. Do we produce our own program? Get it on TV ourselves, then try to get someone interested in showing a series. A single program will cost for the air time, so we'd have to sell advertising. Or do we try and persuade a TV channel to actually fund a series.
Whatever happens next, it should be fun and hopefully, worth watching.
