I live in Peterborough, East Anglia, UK.
There are many pubs in Peterborough, but none of them quite compare to The Brewery Tap.
At the moment, the council want to close the pub and knock it down to make way for an extension to an existing shopping centre. We already have a very big shopping centre on either side of the pub, and they want to make one of them bigger.
Since this would be a terrible waste of a good pub and I honestly think it would be a big loss for Peterborough, I've decided to join in on the "Don't Scrap the Tap" campaign. Namely, I'm making a video, like the ones you'd see on the BBC news about such things, and I'll try to get it shown wherever relevant and possible, in an attempt to rally up a little more support.
The problem is, I've hit a stumbling block.
The video is done (unless an idea strikes me to add something else later), and all I need to do now is ad on an audio commentary over it. But, even though I have reference material, the history of the pub and so forth, I just can't come up with anything to go in there. I just don't know what to say exactly.
This is where you come in.
I need your help in getting the right commentary to go with the video.
Here is the video as I have it so far:
Don't Scrap the Tap! (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=swq88ghbbK4)
and here is the Brewery Tap page on the Oakham Ales website:
Oakham Ales website: Brewery Tap (http://www.oakhamales.com/btwelcome.asp?m_pid=0&m_nid=2098)
The background sound for the music and all the rest is quiet enough that the commentary can be heard over it, then Laura the barmaid's spoken bit is loud enough to be clear between the commentary.
If you have any ideas/suggestions or even your own audio contribution for the video, please let me know.
