Big Screen Swindon

Bored people
What a waste of electricity having it on all the time!!!!

I would like to say that I think the big screen will be a fantastic addition to Swindon - BUt I think that when the novility factor wears off it will just faid into the background. It is just one of thoes things that looks great on paper but just doesn't translate. I think that the council will have to work really hard to keep the intrest levles up - showing local talant, music fstivles, and football matches ect...

Im local , often in town the tv's good but im not really fussed about it , If england had qualified into the euro It would of been a good spot to watch the games have a smoke a few beers and chat to your mates but I certainly wont be doing that while foreign teams are playing , it won't be long before somebody covers it in paint or throws a brick at it anyway..

Anyone considered the carbon footprint of this, at a time when we're being psychologically persecuted for leaving our TVs on standby, or driving a Land Rover? I'll bet nobody has bothered setting up a few solar panels or a wind turbine to power the thing. Hypocrites!

Looking forward to the switch on. Will be vital for breaking news stories, and a lot of fun any other time!

It is definitely a very good idea due to swindon not having anything big like this. The amount of money being spent on it is definitely not a waste as this will draw a lot of the public to it. Wharf green will look eye very catching and hopefully beautiful.

It will only be worth the expense if they use that screen to shiowcase local talent and local ideas

Its Not Worth It Rotherham Is A Town About As Big As Swindon And All It Does Is Sit There The BBC Put Some England World Cup Games On It And About 8 People Turned Up Instead Of Wasting All That Money Just Buy Everyone In Swindon A TV(y)

Fantastic Idea needs to be big though like the ones in london and leeds and needs to be very high up to prevent damage/vandalism

WHAT a waste of tax payers money.We should be encouraging Familes and young people to expore the surounding area of the Cotswolds not stuck in front of yet another TV.
