The Greenwich Show has just recently broadcast its second episode. It's not just local, it's hyper-local and it's all about the community. Films made by the community, about the community for the community. Episode 1 featured some lovely pieces including Park it in the Market; a vintage car get together, the tallship festival, a restored gothic castle and a short film 'Men of the Tideway' by Danny Bullman which you can see here:
It's a great venture, and very much down to some very dedicated individuals. You may recognise the executive producer of the programme as Rugby League presenter Ian Ramsdale. Ian was inspired by a similar show elsewhere and now is absolutely committed to success in Greenwich, with its impressive wealth of things to see and do.
If we thought episode 1 was good, then episode 2 definitely topped it. There are features on developments on the ever-changing peninsula, the Greenwich Show's predecessor 'Cablevision', the Crossness pumping station, the South London Special League and Mycenae House. All feature great examples of just why Greenwich is unique, fun and has a huge amount of historical relevance. You can still watch the episode via http://www.thegreenwichshow.co.uk/
The Greenwich Show is set for great things. There are plenty of local film-makers (myself included) eager to get out there and make films about anything and everything Greenwich. If you have suggestions for future features or short films of your own, then please do get in touch with the team via info@thegreenwichshow.co.uk
The next broadcast is available to watch on Freesat 401 and Sky 212 on 3rd November, so make sure to tune in then!
