Wonders of the Border

 There's been a camera crew in Hay over the last couple of days, filming for a new TV series called Wonders of the Border.

They did some filming at the Cinema Bookshop, and Greg the manager had his fifteen minutes of fame by taking them around town and chatting to the presenter, Sean Fletcher, about the history of Hay as a booktown.  Sean Fletcher is walking the Offa's Dyke Path for the series, which is a follow up to Wonders of the Coast Path.

I also follow a blog called Archaeodeath, written by Howard Williams, who is a professor of archaeology at Chester University, with a special interest in death, burial and commemoration.  He is also taking part in Wonders of the Border, and was filmed on the Offa's Dyke Path where it overlooks Tintern Abbey at the Devil's Pulpit.
