UK Radiotour Day 3
- Hannah 01.06.2007 17.46
Hi,
What a beautiful day in Swindon! Summer is finally back in England and I’m so glad about it because when I left Tallinn on 29th May, we had +31ºC – really hot weather!
Well then, Mark Seaman from BBC Swindon – my first interview with him this morning went extremely well, his was such a nice and genial man. We had long and interesting conversation about Estonian history and also about charity in Estonia. We chatted about my single and my first international album that’s going to be released in September 2007. One picture with Mark:
After lovely and sunny Swindon we arrived in Cardiff, Wales, at 13.00.
Wales is definitely one of my favorite parts of UK, I really love Cardiff. I had a little time to take a tour around the town and it’s beautiful. It really is, like all the rest of the Wales.
OK, live interview with Chris Corcoran. My last one with this tour… and it turned to be the funniest one. Why? Here’s a little bit more about Chris:
Chris Corcoran is a Welsh comedian and television/radio presenter. Originally a teacher, his recent TV credits include fronting the Six Nations (Rugby) coverage for BBC Wales, "Big Welsh Joke", "Little Welsh Joke" and "The Full Pontyfringe". He is also a regular on BBC Radio Wales.
He is well known amongst younger viewers for the Cbeebies show Doodle Do, and provided the voice of Miss Bunny on CBBC's Nelly Nut.
His comedy has a decidedly Welsh flavour - in 2004 his solo Edinburgh Fringe show was entitled Welsh Assembly. He is a regular on the UK comedy circuit, performing at venues including the Comedy Store and the Jongleurs chain of clubs. He has also worked as a warm-up man for BBC recordings.
Here we are with Chris:
We agreed before the interview that we are not discuss about usual questions or topics and he will hit me with few very silly and unusual ones. There’s nothing much to say, you just have to listen the show. I enjoyed it enormously!
Here is the BBC Radio Wales show team:
Thank you guys, you made my day! And I also listened the radio after my interview and heard how Chris ate the Estonian chocolate and tasted the Estonian liqueur Kännukukk. That was sweet!
Anyway, I’m way off to London now and I had just amazingly fabulous few days. I want to thank all the interviewers whose shows I’ve been on and everyone who helped me with the tour. Special thanks to Neil, Ander and Steve.
Cheers,
Hannah
