The One Show; material required.
I have received the following email from Hannah Patnick, a researcher for the BBC's The One Show which is self explanatory, however there isn't much time, so if you want to get involved ring straight away.
.............................. The BBC’s One Show is doing a story on the history of Kodak cameras and film photography. The piece will be broadcast on Wednesday (25th January) and I was hoping you might be able to help! We are looking to speak to anyone who has a love for Kodak cameras and film photography. The idea is that we can give an insight into how Kodak has changed the lives of people in the UK. I’m sorry for the short notice but would love to hear from you or any of your members who might have a story to tell about their old Kodak pictures. Please feel free to contact me on 0208 008 5655. ...................................... If she wants to know you may tell her you saw her request here. |

I'll watch the show with interest. I had a suspicion that it might present the end of Kodak film as a "fait accompli" and it would be a kind of an obituary. Then I thought this was cynical of me but I have since learned that in the Rochester area the headline seems to be that Kodak can't even pay its utility bills. This may be simply about a delay in releasing the money under Chapter 11 rules We have to hope so
If the BBC can confirm this then I'd be amazed if this doesn't figure in the programme. However the presentation is made it might be difficult to avoid the impression that Kodak film is on its way out which isn't helpful to its sales in the U.K. It will be worth watching tonight Mike |

Well the One Show feature was on the one hand lightweight but on the other was sympathetic to the use of film. There was nostalgia and no " nail was driven into the coffin" although John Sargeant was bound to use the phrase "end of an era".
It is what broadcasters do. Mike |

I'm glad that I didn't stay up to watch it.

Me too and it reads that they didn't allow themselves enough time to research it properly/thoroughly.

"The One Show" is notoriously fluffy and superficial - it tries to cram in chat - serious news - comedy - in fact everything but the kitchen sink. The end result is that nothing is covered to a sufficient degree. The Friday show is better as they have longer to develop subjects (I really didn't intend the pun).
