Probably true for this Download special, but they definitely had a say about which songs were broadcast for past Download/Sonisphere TV shows.

Anybody knows if Bruce could finish the Truants race? It seems that Rod keep it secretly too.

Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson helps Heavy Metal Truants raise over £1 million for charity
Bruce Dickinson and Heavy Metal Truants worldwide cycle, run and walk 37,917 miles to help raise £1 million for charity

Edited message to cater for all options:
Decimal point version (using commas to separate thousands):
It should be said that prior to this year's charity event the Heavy Metal Truants had already raised over £800,000 for charity, meaning that this year's money raised with Bruce's help would be over £200,000. The headline can be misleading.
Decimal comma version (using points to separate thousands):

Thanks for the info. Official Maiden website didn't say a word about it during and after the bike race or whatever. Why is this don't surprising me?

I did not do it so our friends over in the continent do not get confused. What over here is written as £200,000, there would be seen as £200 (with three decimal places).

£200,00 - yes. £200,000 - most probably not, the third zero would ring a bell.I did not do it so our friends over in the continent do not get confused. What over here is written as £200,000, there would be seen as £200 (with three decimal places).

Don’t get me started on that notation. I spent yesterday’s evening going through the proofs of a paper where it had been used leading to ambiguous interpretation of the technical aspects of the work we had done.
Nevertheless, I will edit the original post to cater for all different options.
