tvordljI was contacted by email last Friday by a reporter from CBC television. They are apparently doing a feature on tonight's news about Coronation Street's 50th anniversary which is this week and celebrated all week with some pretty explosive storylines, quite literally. They want to interview me in conjunction with that theme! I think it will be set up at lunchtime today though the weather is not that great. It's raining a bit with very high winds so i hope i don't have to go too far. He had suggested a pub downtown since i can't really have a camera man and reporter in my work cubicle! I guess worst case scenario i would take a cab to the cbc studios but that's at my expense so i'd rather not. They're supposed to contact me this morning so i'll know more then. I hope the weather doesn't cancel it but fate rules.
I don't know how they got my name but i suspect it's because of that Corrie Crazy documentary they filmed over the summer in which <lj user=gramie_dee> and i appeared. They would have had my email address from the people doing the doc. I don't expect it to be a long thing, just a few words from a fan, more likely.
It's the anniversary of the Halifax Explosion today, too. I wonder if the weather will cancel the services they always have at the memorial on Fort Needham.
ETA: Just heard from the CBC guy that emailed me last week. No interview after all, they've done something on Corrie's anniversary yesterday apparently. Oh never mind. The Corrie Crazy documentary airs on Thursday night so that will have to be my 2 minutes of fame. Just as glad really.
