Midlands Today feedback

the initial reactions for the afternoon pre-Midlands version is that it was a fair enough report and was made by the video footage of the flood itself. The camera and reporter were not in the faces of the villagers and even if there was a little helpful guidance in priming the questions Giles Latcham came over well to the interviewees.

the later version pushed the forgotten village storyline fairly hard but mentioned the key points that needed mentioning i.e. flood banks, clean up. Luckily, the photos from the blog were not used!

If you want to see it ask we have a copy on video and you will be able to see it at http://www.bbc.co.uk/midlandstoday/latest_stories/index.shtml for probably a few days.

Aerial shots of the flood can be seen at:http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check/gloucestershire/realmedia/2007/07/helivid2307?size=16x9&bgc=C0C0C0&nbram=1&bbram=1
