The piece on the forthcoming publication of Star Vistas appeared on Meridian Evening News on Wednesday 10th December 2008.  You can visit the Meridian News web site and view the programme now.

Well - I didn’t see anything about Star Vistas on Meridian News on either the 3rd or 4th December 2008 - sorry for the bad information given below.  I have no idea when, or if, anything will be shown

Local independent TV broadcaster Meridian TV was filming at the New Forest Observatory on the evening of 2nd December 2008.  Unfortunately they were still filming when that evening’s News was on and I think I missed my image of the Moon/Venus/Jupiter on the weather introductory picture (more…)

The Star Vistas radio programme was broadcast on Radio Solent on the morning of Friday 28th November 2008 - you can download this interview over the Internet.

Meridian TV will be at the New Forest Observatory this coming week to cover the Star Vistas story and to get up to date with the most recent developments at the observatory.

Hot news for today - I had a 10 minute radio interview with Julian Clegg on BBC Radio Solent this morning between 7.50-8.00am talking about our astrophotos. 

The BBC want me back on the show when the book Making Beautiful Deep-Sky Images is published for a longer discussion - so that will be October this year.

Hopefully some of you out there caught the broadcast.  If you missed it then, I believe, it is available on the BBC Radio Solent web site [not sure for how long]

At least there are no cameras

I’ll be doing three radio interviews for the Southampton radio station Original FM - tune in if you are about.�

OK, if you are in the broadcast area and want to see an unrehearsed LIVE¹ television interview then tune in to Meridian News on Monday, 20th November at 6.30pm.

Fred Dinenage will be in the studio and the mobile team will be at the New Forest Observatory, asking questions and showing images with their satellite-link van parked outside the house

 Did I make a fool of myself?  Yes!  Right at the very end I said about capturing images on film.  Film?  Film?  I’ve never used film.  Why did I say that?  Live T.V. is actually pretty scary - avoid it if you can.

1. please, please, please, don’t let me make a fool of myself

Hey!  A Television appearance, who would have thought it

Chris Packham’s “Inside Out” programme on BBC1 will be showing the New Forest Observatory and some of our images.

Now, I  know that Inside Out is a regional show, so if you are lucky enough to live in the broadcast area you will be able to see it at 7.30pm tomorrow night.
