Shetland In Sound And Vision

One of the things I discovered during my trip to BBC Radio Shetland last week is that our staff there are often called upon by TV colleagues in London because of their voices.

Next time you watch Terry Wogan present the Points of View programme, have a listen to some of the accents used to "voice-up" the viewers' comments. Yep, that's our radio folk in Lerwick.

Not that people in the Northern Isles make more comments about TV programmes than anyone else....but it makes a change from the usual Home Counties voices.

I promised some pictures from my trip north...well here you are, and these ones are very moving.
