After a very busy week on the road in the UK, BBC Watch is now getting back to normal.
The response to our four events held in London and Manchester last week was way beyond expectation and we would like to thank the hundreds of people who attended them, our host in Parliament Mike Freer MP and our wonderful speakers Baroness Deech, Professor Richard Landes, Dr Denis MacEoin, Lesley Klaff and Jonathan Turner. 
The high participation in all the events indicates just how relevant the topic of the BBC’s coverage of Israel is to the British community and it was a pleasure to meet so many BBC Watch readers and supporters from far and wide in person.
Special thanks go to the many individuals and organisations who volunteered their help in organising the events: without them, they simply could not have taken place.
Security was of course a big part of the organisation of the events and we are grateful to the wonderful Community Security Trust and the police for taking such professional care of that aspect.
Sincere thanks go to Murray Freedman for artwork and design, Sharna Kinsley and Nizza Fluss for photography, Tony Jacobs and Richard Galber for security, Jenny Scott and Nadine Dobrik for organisation, Ellie Bar-On; first-aider and computer operation and Ambrosine Shitrit and Rachel Dobrik of Campaign for Truth for logistics and organisation.
Thanks too to the community of Northwood Synagogue and the Zionist Central Council in Manchester for hosting us. Unfortunately, a very tight schedule meant that we were not able to accept the additional invitations from many other communities in the UK this time around.
We are grateful for the many offers of help with hospitality and transport and special thanks go to Sharon Lagnado for a very wet and windy drive up the M1.
An especially big thank-you goes to Sharon Klaff of Campaign for Truth who was instrumental in organising the first two events in London and whose boundless energies and meticulous attention to detail made them such a success.
