The interviewer was asking Dr. T. about his feelings on the demise of Kodachrome - at least the public broadcaster has the good sense to ask somebody who knows what he is talking about. The interviewer tried hard to get Ted to say that he was going to miss Kodachrome and while admitting to the film's wonderful qualities, Ted refused to be nostalgic and talked instead about the quality advances of the latest professional digital cameras. Ted didn't admit to using the film in 1936 when it was invented but I bet he did. Good on you Ted - always look forward and never back. :-). Cheers Howard (trying always to look forward on Pender)
