Author puzzles the BBC
Author Elonka Dunin - The Mammoth Book of Secret Code Puzzles - blogs about her experiences being interviewed by the BBC, including this amazing passage:
[The BBC] scheduled a time, but ended up calling us late, and then when we went on the air, we each got to say just one or two sentences, and then the interviewer interrupted us with, “Sorry, out of time, and I’m not understanding this anyway,” and they cut us off and ended the segment rather suddenly.
Not what you’d expect from the Beeb. They offered to bring her back for another segment, though that didn’t turn out as planned either, as you can read here. But in the end, she adds,
…they did at least mention my book.
