Hello, I’m a producer for BBC Breakfast. The most people ever turn 70 this year and we are looking to mark this with a live broadcast and a show dedicated to celebrating 70. It will look at different themes affecting 70 year olds, what life was like in 1947 and (hopefully!) an audience of 70 seventy-year-olds. I wanted to touch base to see if any of your members might be interested in contributing to the special show? It will likely be a location close to London, held at the beginning of November. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions. Thanks Cristina 02036140040
