Well done David.
I wont take all the credit. Geraldine and Ben got thrown in at the deep end talking on Radio 1 with the great VB!
It was a wonderful mild clear night here in Wexford, and I took the radio out on to the patio.
I am a keen VB listener and I thought he handled the show well.
It was all Vincent's idea so he has a personal interest. Interesting angle too where he used actors, mytholosists etc. Never seen that done before.
I actually saw a satalite going over during the show but it was very faint.
hee hee. I saw a fairly bright one (mag 0 or +1) but he was in full flow and near the end of the show so I just couldnt interrup him. If you know anyone who wants to listen to the Show from last night they can simply go to: http://www.radio1.ie/evening/vincentbrowne/ and click on "Wednesday" near the bottom of the page.
Regards,
Dermot
