Being Neil Armstrong

davek · July 5, 2009

BBC4 9pm.

Hope the feller presenting tracks the recluse down and gets an interview. The whole BBC 2/4 Moon series has been great so far.

No interview.

Didn't surprise me really. The presenter got a couple of email replies off Armstrong and that was it.

You couldn't help feeling some sympathy for Armstrong, who comes across as a private person who others cant or wont leave in peace. No wonder he distrusts people when there's creeps looking to exploit him - his barber, for instance, selling his hair clippings on the internet looking to make $12M from his 'entrepreneurship'.
