This week we have started to become introduced to factual radio documentary, in the lecture we were informed about our factual documentary task and its history and role relating to the audience.

In the workshops we chose our groups, we had the option to work alone and submit our final work to the Charles Parker award, however I have chosen to work with Chloe Abraham and Chloe Edwards again as we worked as we had worked so well together last time. To start with we were interested in the Hellfire Caves which are nearby to Chloe Edwards’ home, however the piece needs to be Lincolnshire based. Su Taylor put forward the name of Priscilla Biggadike, who was the first private hanging at Lincoln Castle, this sounded interesting to all of us so we decided to research her when we had the chance. We have a group proposal for this task due next week.

As well as this I am currently preparing for a show that I will be taking part in next week. It is my second ION Media show which will be based on remakes in Film, Television, Games and Radio. I am taking on the role of OB and I have planned to make a short quiz where the presenters guess which is the original and which is the remake.
