Bob,

Thanks. I?m glad it?s available around the world. Sadly I didn?t choose the 
music. That was chosen by a computer (possibly a malfunctioning one). No 
relationship with Leica. I talked a fair bit about german cameras and Leica. 
The BBC edited out the L word though, as they don?t allow product placement 
as it is a public sector broadcaster.

Best wishes,

Charlie
