>> Dear Nick Gilbey
>> Graeme McAlpine suggested I contact you. He’s seen a request for 
>> information I’d posted on the GTC Forum - and told me about the 
>> Broadcast Television Technology Trust.
>>
>> To give you the background, I am directing a film for German national 
>> broadcaster NDR, to mark the Queen’s 70th Anniversary. Our focus will 
>> be on the 16 months between the Accession and the Coronation in 1953.
>>
>> As we know, the Coronation OB was a major feat of organisation and 
>> technical expertise. There are many great stories too - from the 
>> cameramen who were required to be small and inconspicuous - to the 
>> BBC lunchbox that included half a bottle of wine!
>>
>> It’s not surprising therefore, that we would love to speak to one or 
>> two of the people involved in that day, if they are still with us. I 
>> have a number of names that I took from an article that appeared in 
>> the Guild’s magazine originally printed in 1985:
>> Peter Ward
>> D.R.G. Montague
>> Don Mackay
>> Stephen Wade
>> Max Robertson
>> Tony ‘Bud’ Flanagan
>> Peter Dimmock
>> John Vernon
>> Bob Hubbard
>> Tony Bridgewater
>> Jack T P Robinson
>>
>> I have no idea if you can help, but any information would be 
>> appreciated. Aside from this email, my telephone number is: 07946 321426
>>
>> FYI, the production company engaged to make this documentary is 
>> called LOOKS Film. This is the link to the company website: 
>> https://looks.film/en/ <https://looks.film/en/>
>>
>> I look forward to hearing from you.
>> Kind regards
>> Claire Walding.
