Broadcasts


The programme is broadcast to the North West, Yorkshire & North Midlands, North East & Cumbria, and East Yorkshire & Lincolnshire regions on Monday nights at 11.45pm. Since 2008, it has been repeated nationally on BBC Two, originally overnight on Mondays, but currently on Tuesday lunchtimes at 1pm.[1]


It can also be viewed over the internet or downloaded using the BBC iPlayer in the UK. End of season play-offs and World Club Challenge highlights are shown across the whole country in a highlights package.


Before being succeeded by Tanya Arnold, Harry Gration presented the programme from 1999 until the latter part of the 2011 season. For the 2012 season, the programme was moved from Sundays to its fixed Monday night timeslot.



Controversy


According to Harry Gration in his book Yorkshire Sporting Heroes, one of the programme's first pundits, ex-Great Britain captain Garry Schofield, was effectively removed from the show for being too controversial. We took calls of complaint from Maurice Lindsay, the chief executive of the Rugby Football League, who wanted him removed, wrote Gration. But he struck a chord at this time with the fans. They loved his no-nonsense approach and honesty, although he had his detractors too.



Awards


The Super League Show picked up the Royal Television Society Sports Awards for best Nations and Regions Sports Actuality Programme in May 2007.[2] It followed this up by winning Best Sports Programme at the Royal Television Society North West awards evening in November 2007.[3]
