Steve with Peter Marshall from BBC North West Tonight on the Somme, 1st July 2006
In July 2006 I arranged with BBC Television news in the North West of England for them to cover my coach trip to the Somme battlefield, exactly 90 years on from the start of the battle on the 1st July 1916. I worked with Peter Marshall at BBC TV North West Tonight and later that year they covered my personal trip to Gallipoli battlefields when I went searching for lost graves on the battlefield there.
I have also done a WW1 documentary with BBC Radio Lancashire entitled ‘At last a chance to say goodbye’, aired on Remembrance Sunday 2006 as well as appearing live on their Breakfast Show and on their morning programme hosted by Ted Robbins.
In 2007 I assisted BBC Television ‘Inside Out’ programme with research into the diary of a WW1 soldier that included ‘Shot at Dawn’ items, doing a piece to camera accordingly. Recently with the Chorley Pals Memorial I have done interviews for ITN News, Granada Reports and BBC Radio Lancashire, as well as interviews and articles for national, regional and local newspapers.
