As some of you know we were interviewed last Saturday by the BBC about Whippet Racing in our area for their program FLOG IT (cheers Jac & Terry NOT!), anyone who's watched it will know they centre around the area's history and at the end they do an evaluation on things people want to sell. This particular evaluation day is being filmed in Lancashire so is being based around the mining in this area. The producer and director came to meet up with us and were keen to get to know all our gang and our racing experiences, we were interviewed for a good hour and they wanted to see all my old black & white pictures from the 60's.
The film crew and their presenter will be coming back again on the 9th October to film some racing at the club and they want to start off with one of the whippets being filmed at the old colliery near us (Can just see me & Paddy Whoppet in a flat cap!).
So anyone who can make that date (it's a Friday) it'd be fab if you could come over and be involved in the filming, i'll post times nearer the day.
