" BBC World Service interviews the mrbrown show
Adri and Ruby look at the retro mixer
Our interview on the BBC World Service programme, Close Up, will be broadcast on the 17th and 24th of November 2006, both Fridays, at 9.30 GMT (I believe that is 5.30pm Singapore time). Popagandhi, Ruby and I went down to their Singapore office to chat with their London studio over an ISDN line. Man, those mixers made of wood looked so retro cool, man!
Waiting for the ISDN call from London in this recording booth in BBC Singapore
Tune in to the BBC at 88.9FM tomorrow evening, or you can listen to the 30-minute Arts and Drama show online at this BBC link between the 17th and 24th of November 2006.
Note: requires (aaarrgh) Realplayer.

Oh.. Now I know how Ruby looks like.. Eh.. did you ever study English at Princeton.. you look damn familiar.. Anyway.. wah.. looks like MBS is going international leh… I think if the Brits here it in UK, they might rethink the possibility that S’pore is part of China coz of all the lahs, lehs and hors.. but then again.. who cares! Singlish rocks! (only if you dont use it in a parlimentary debate or when you are applying for a job or any official matters) =)

Hello dan,
Ruby is the one on the right, in the last photo.
Her distinct looks & voice talents graced
the mr brown show video of August 30 this year,
during TalkingCock in Parliament.

Hi TriggerFish:
Ah, but the Oct 9 studio photo,
although seeming to be the exact same location,
show both brown & ruby more laid back (literally).
(Still, BBC keeps re-using that same old studio?)
And mr brown,
I just checked your BBC link for Part 1 of the show on
17 November, and the synopsis makes no mention of
our beloved bloggers - podcasters.
Perhaps news of you folks will emerge for the Part 2 broadcast
on Nov 24th?
