Advantages: The occasional appearance by Judith Chalmers

Disadvantages: Not enough facts about destinations.

Wish You Were Here? Sadly, not any more...

This programme used to utilise the services of arguably the best travel journalist in the business, John Carter. He was extremely knowlegable about the destination covered and the travel industry as a whole.

Nowadays, I'm afraid to say, the emphasis is more on young, egotisitic "personalities" like soap actresses or so-called stars of docusoaps.

You can guarantee that these "stars" will, at some point in the report, announce that the best way to see the destination is by helicopter. It may make good tv, but helicopter rides are beyond the budgets of most holidaymakers.

These reports are also accompanied by a continual soundtrack of techno music, leaving only brief opinions on the destination.

One bright point however - at least we still get the occasional cameo from Judith Chalmers.
