One Show live...Cuba Gooding Jr and Birdy with presenters.Alex Jones and Dermot O'Leary. The producer of the show kindly came over and shook my hand and we had a great chat about the dolphins in Taiji. He took a copy of my book which I signed to presenter Matt Baker to thank him for taking part in the BBC Big Blue show. Matt who presents Countryfile on Fridays, will receive his book on Monday. The security from the BBC were amazing,They too supported our event,and informed us that the event was hot topic inside the building and everyone was talking about dolphins. We were approached by many people wanting to know much more. The support was truly amazing. The event came to a close with the live performance from Birdy on the One Show.
