NJ Reject - Brent library

Justin intro:

A wise man once said the best things in life are free - shortly before being forcibly zipped up and arrested. But he was right - life is full of free delights: a sunset; birdsong; those coats hanging up by the door in Starbucks on a rainy day, the one's which never seem to fit you but do for getting home in. Free books is another one - unless you are Brent Council, who don't agree and have plans to board up Kensal Rise Library. Campaigners are planning to gather every day in an attempt to prevent them. Our reporter on the spot is Kay Sera-Sera.

Kay Sera-Sera (loud, important and news-reportery):

Thank you, Justin. I'm here at Brent Library talking to Felicity Meercat, local librarian and now protester.

Felicity Meercat (angry):

Shhhh!

Kay Sera-Sera (more restrained):

Sorry. Felicity Meercat, what are you hoping to achieve with this protest?

Felicity Meercat (theatrical whispers):

We just want to be heard.

Kay Sera-Sera:

And I hear you will be keeping a vigil?

Felicity Meercat:

Yes - my copy of The Aeneid, is overdue and I won't be returning it until the Council listens.

Kay Sera-Sera:

Felicity Meercat, thank you. This is Kay Sera-Sera, Kensal Rise, where librarians are voicing their disquiet. Quietly.

A bit rubbish and based on a rejected voxpop from last series no less - it probably didn't help that I started with "Jason intro:"!

:D re: Jason intro.

I like this. Kay Sera-Sera is an excellent name, and it's very Newsjack in tone with the whispering.

Nice one.

Dan
