I (Harj) met up with a friend, Amrit Cheema who works for BBC Coventry and Warwickshire. I was telling him about my trip to India and what we are planning to do. He was very impressed and said the BBC would see this as a very interesting story to document. He said they are always looking for citizen journalists to take out the BBC's eqiupment and collect as much footage as they can of their experiences with the aim of it becoming a documentary. After discussing this with Atousa we both decided to go ahead and take this opportunity. As part of this process we were invited to give an interview regarding our plans and reasons for our trip. We were interviewed by Satnam Rana, Broadcast journalist for BBC Midlands Today as well as by Liz Kershaw from BBC Coventry and Warwickshire. They have both invited us back for a post trip interview to find out how it went. We are looking forward to taking out their camera and taking some exciting footage.
