    I just had a really bizarre experience I've just been filmed by BBC West on my stand just by the Menin Gate, going out tomorrow night (completely by surprise I might add so apologies for being unshaven).

    I had the honour of being asked about Harry and my connection with him, no promises they'll use it, I just hope that I did Harry justice!

    Probably won't be used, rather nervous at the time to be honest!

    Harry? The prince?

    If you aren't comfortable with the footage they took I'm sure you can ask them not to use it.

    No, Harry Patch the last British Great War veteran.

    Ah that makes sense, I followed the link from the front page so I missed the category this was posted in, my bad, thanks for clarifying.

    Well done Sir !

    Having been myself in the "firing line" of a BBC interview I know how stressful it can be and you can be assured that you more than held your own.

    A word of advice ?

    Now put a banner on your stand that says "As seen on BBC TV" together with a clip from the video :)

    Best Regards

    Ron

    Hi Paul,

    I have been looking for Jacky P and can't find it, could you point me in the right direction?

    Cheers

    Soren,

    Sorry to say I missed the thread and the programme if it made BBC World.

    But I am sure that you did yourself proud.

    Regards
