I also have an open invite to get in touch with
Tony's assistant Ruth,
should I be visiting London, to go one step further than Andy's current
suggestion of recording an audio intro of Wikipedia bio article subjects,
and capture a short video clip of Tony introducing himself.
Thank you, Brian.
My following comment is thinking out loud and in no way meant to sound
ungrateful.
I must confess I have mixed feelings about use of video for this.
While it is generally a richer media, a "talking head" adds little
over a still image and audio. The files are larger and one of my aims
with the project was to have something light and easily and cheaply
downloadable.
What do others think?
On a positive note, BBC presenter Evan Davis (Today Programme;
Dragon's Den) has just supplied a cracking voice recording which is
now on his article:
