Sir Patrick Moore interviews Anthony Wesley!

Hi all,
Watching BBC Sky at Night 2011 Storm Chasing, airing on BBC 4 in the UK you can view on line or download I was surprised and delighted to see Sir Patrick Moore interview Australia's own Anthony Wesley (Bird)

Sky at night is a wonderful show the 700th was great and I met Sir Patrick back in the 80's so it was fantastic to see Anthony on TV talking about his imaging of Saturn and Jupiter well done Mr Wesley

Guess if we buy the magazine the attached cd will have the show
I'll keep an eye out
Need the airfreight edition if you don't want to wait 6 months though...costs 5 dollars more

I'm surprised the answers didn't come in Torrents for you.

Its actually quite Eazy to watch this on Television or on your Computer. 8th May IIRC



[edit] Anthonys' interview must be in the log version of the show. Its not in the 20 minute Storm Chasing episode I just watched
