Phoenix, I managed to get Pick of the Week on iplayer on my laptap here in Egypt. I was very impressed by your calmness when being interviewed and I thought your voice was clear and pleasant.
I was very moved by your story and I can easily understand why you want to hear Jack's voice. I hope somebody heard and can help you.

Listened to you, without knowing it was you, while driving home from Gatwick after three wonderful weeks of holiday. You triggered a huge 'counting my blessings' moment, and a great deal of admiration for you. Enjoy the sunshine today.

Phoenix just listened on iplayer sitting up in bed.

It was very moving hearing you talk about your son flowers

Celeb I think that there is a link to the interview on the "Sorry to those" etc thread.

PS I still think that there are a couple of sentences where I did the Australian thing, also I do seem to sound very "nasal" but I did have a pretty bad cold.

Mr P and I have talked about Jack a lot this afternoon, many reminiscences about funny things, including the 3 of us playing cricket when Jack had a broken arm. He felt that the plaster cast was hindering him, so just sort of slipped it off while playing, then calmly put it back on again!

I've just heard you too! You did so well.flowers
I have a CD of my father being interviewed by my cousin's son for a Milennium Archive project which I treasure and also a cassette of DD2 "interviewing" her other Grandpa about 28 years ago. Very precious.

I've just heard it, phoenix. I think you were amazing to stay so controlled. flowers

Just heard it, I don't sound like me at all, but I do feel incredibly honoured.

Odd, isn't it that I managed to stay composed during the actual interview, but got a bit sniffly listening to that extract.

Have you been on yet, Phoenix?

It's on Radio 4 now, Petallus.

When is Pick of the Week?

Good heavens, just heard the trailer for Pick Of The Week, and apparently it will include part of the interview I did with Eddie Mair!

I didn't expect that.
