We were really surprised and flattered a couple of weeks ago when the BBC came knocking at the door asking if it was OK for them to film in the Edinburgh Larder. Of course we gladly accepted. It was for a really interesting story about the decline of braille – giving information on modern tools used to enable reading for those withlittle or no sight. There was a fair bit of filming done both inside and outside the deli and we were really excited when we were called on the 8th of March to say that we would be on the show that night. We all rushed home to make sure we saw it but when it came to our section of the show, we were a bit disappointedbut more humoured to find that the only bit of the cafe which they’d left in the filming was the magnolia walls behind the guy who was talking about braille – it could have been anywhere! Ah well, at least we know we helped with the filming of an interesting piece for a worthy cause – it was fascinating to hear the story first hand.
