BBC1 (UK) country file 11:30 (45 mins from now) was filming at Rochester Sweeps Festival last weekend they bill it as the biggest gathering of morris dancers in the world. I might be on with the Witchmen. I'll be looking for my 6 yr old son William playing a drum in our band. Phil |

Apart from interviewer wearing Top Hat & feathers, it was tastefully done. A first for TV ? |
