Students from the Centre of Journalism have been welcomed onto BBC Radio Kent’s Breakfast programme after producing the station’s Christmas video for the second year running.
This year, students worked with breakfast presenters, John and Maggie to film the song Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree at the BBC’s news centre in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Last year, they filmed Fairytale of Kent, based on Fairytale of New York, which reached nearly 10,000 views on YouTube.
The second year BA students, Duarte Dias, Boglarka Kosztolanyi, Micah George and Adham Devenny, appeared on the breakfast programme on Monday 21 December to tell listeners about the video.
All four credit the skills learned on their course at the Medway campus-based Centre for Journalism for the success of this project, saying the team at Radio Kent were easy to work with and open to their ideas.
