It's part of the Newsnight broadcast, so will not be independently listed.

Oh, I see. It seems odd that Newsnight would be doing a feature on RT specifically rather than the Folk Awards in general, welcome as it is.

I realise I am appearing as a bit on a one issue wonder on this site but, my mate at the BBC, or "an informed source" as he/or she prefers to be called has just received an email from Newsnight which says that the Richard Thompson piece "should" be going out tonight…..note the caveat!  My mole had tried to establish whether any Fairport related material was involved in the broadcast but had not received any clear answer. 

So lets all hope that nothing news worthy happens today to cause it to be rescheduled.

I will now disappear into the background from whence I came.

    Such as, perhaps, the largest ever robbery in Britain and the carnage sparked by the newest insanity in Iraq...........  Sad

 Otherwise, Olly, BBC2 at 2230hrs.

A sentitive (emotional), accurate and enjoyable report. What stars they all are, and certainly deserve the boost in reputation they will get from this.

Bloody hell, we're trendy.

Quite a good piece by all accounts. How strange to see such familiar faces on Newsnight.

Not sure about the Mail headline in the newspaper review that followed. 'Old Folk Should Die'  bit reactionary even by Mail standards

Bloody Hell!
I thought the house was on fire!
My Mrs just came hurtling downstairs shouting something about Fairport being on telly, so I legged it into the front room, switched it on, and there! There they were!
Amazing! I didn't expect that! Maybe I should keep a closer eye on this forum in future!
5 minutes of unexpected telly tonight has been better than the rest of the rubbish I've seen this week put together!

Fascinating and sensitive piece, especially when you start comparing your own long hair from the 60's/70's to middle age wrinkles today; and that's about all me and RT may have in common, also wish I had some youthfull expertise to have been able to have figured how to have video taped that via a digi box. Sadly failed!
