WoG on BBC

Supposedly I will be part of a discussion today on the BBC. Per host Martin Vennard:
Between 1:30pm and 2pm East Coast Time in the States we will be talking to Shirley Katz live in our international discussion programme, World Have Your Say. She is the Oregon teacher who wants to be able to take a gun to school for her own protection.
I have no idea if they will even end up calling me, or if they do how much I will have a chance to say. I understand they have also approached some other pro-RKBA bloggers and activists, so I'd assume they'll also have plenty of representation from the Dark Side.

Be all these considerations and caveats as they may, here's a link that should lead you to where you can listen, and I understand they also archive things.

We'll see what this is all about. I'm going in with no expectations other than this will be fraught with opportunities to rise and fall, and am hoping I get a chance to open my yap once or twice.

UPDATE: Well, they never called. I tried to listen and their live program link wouldn't connect. And on top of it all, my agent still wants his 10%.

UPDATE 2 (Response to my inquiry on why nobody called):

I'm very sorry. It was just because of the number of people wanting to take part. Hopefully we can speak to you in future.

Best wishes

Seeing as how they initiated contact with me and then asked me to rearrange my schedule to be on today, that's pretty inconsiderate and unprofessional.
