Contact from BBC2

Hell Friends,
Yesterday I was contacted by an assistant producer from BBC2. When I asked her how she found me I was delighted by her reply - "The Ruby Murray website". The lady was asking if I would be interviewed over the telephone to give my views on the popularity of 1950s seaside shows. She had come across a photo of a poster for a Blackpool show and she was not sure where it was for. I was able to tell her that it was The North Pier Pavilion Theatre and the show was the Bernard Delfont presentation featuring Ruby. Tommy Cooper and Ken PLatt. The programme will be presented by Melvin Bragg and it is scheduled for transmission toward the end of the year. I was able to chat to her in detail about the many seaside resorts around the country but I got the impression that Blackpool was the resort that she was interested in. I managed to send her numerous photos of not only the North Pier but Sunday concerts at The Opera House etc etc.
If I get more information I will post it.
Adios Amigos. Bernie.
