So, I had a go at mixing the sound for East Midland Today. I was useless, and no good at all 🙁
Think i’ll stick with photography thanks!
Our new Sheriff of Nottingham had a go at presenting the weather.
Although this is a BBC promotion tour, and that it does give an opportunity to play with some toys …… I think one of the main main values for people is it provides some direct contact with the ‘straight media’. It is an objective of the the tour to get feedback from listeners and viewers of its output. I think concerned folks should go and ask them about their coverage of many of the issues that we feel to be under-represented. Please go and tell them about you concerns.
