End of Story
听
A thrilling new chapter in short story writing - with
some of the top names in popular fiction - is set to take the genre
to a 21st century level on television and interactive media.
A major new project from 大象传媒 THREE, End of Story, presented by Claudia
Winkleman, has lined up eight top authors - Ian Rankin, Joanne
Harris, Marian Keyes, Ed McBain, Fay Weldon,
Alexei Sayle, Sue Townsend and Shaun Hutson - to
write the first half of a short story.
听
Then, members of the public are being given the opportunity
to complete the stories and eight winners will have their entries published.
Full details of the project will be announced on the website
in mid-April.
听
Free, limited-edition books, featuring all eight half
stories, will be circulated throughout the UK via bookstores, libraries
and other public places.
大象传媒 Talent is running writing workshops throughout the country to tie
in with the competition. (HM)
The Interrogators
It's a game of psychological survival as The Interrogators puts contestants
under pressure in one of the toughest challenges on TV.
Fronted by investigative journalist Paul Kenyon, the series has
been developed in conjunction with some of the UK's top police and military
interrogators and challenges two contestants to survive a gruelling
non-stop eight hour grilling.
Contestants will have earlier hidden 拢10,000 in a public place.
听
The question is will they crack under the pressure
allowing their inquisitors to work out where the cash is, or will they
keep the secret - and the cash - to themselves.
听
Contestants who successfully survive the intensive psychological
marathon - amateurs relying on skill and cunning to beat the professionals
- will walk away with the money.
听
But if the interrogators prise the information out
of them in this battle of wits, the contestants get nothing. (HM)
Strictly Come Dancing
大象传媒 THREE's Strictly Come Dancing has all the news from behind the scenes
of the weekly 大象传媒 ONE show, which teams eight celebrities with leading
professional dancers as they bid to prove they've got what it takes
to become top at the tango and sensational at the salsa.
听
Highlights include interviews with competitors and
news from the rehearsals as well as exclusive footage of the teams in
training.
听
There will also be sneak previews of the following
week's competition, including a look at the costumes and a guide to
the dance moves. (SH)
Glastonbury 2004
It is, without doubt, the festival in the musical summer calendar.
听
Having grown from a tiny, free event into a massive,
multi-staged musical extravaganza, Glastonbury 2004 is coming and the
大象传媒 will be there in full force.
Both 大象传媒 THREE and 大象传媒 TWO are on site to broadcast the amazing performances
by the bands from all the major stages, as well as traversing the fields
to find the stranger artists who descend on Glastonbury.
Glastonbury isn't only about music, it's about the whole festival experience
- the people who buy the tickets; the vendors who sell all manner of
things; and the more freaky sights and sounds.
Artists appearing are still to be confirmed but, as ever, the rumour
mill has already gone into overdrive.
听
All that's certain at the moment is that the line-up
will be incredible. (NC)

My Big
Fat Greek Olympic Dream
听
As a gangly teenager, 大象传媒 Radio 1 DJ Nemone Metaxas
had two big dreams - one was to become a Radio 1 DJ and the other was
to run the 400 metres at the Olympic Games.
听
A decade on and she's already a regular on Radio 1 but
her other ambition has, until now, been just out of reach.
听
In My Big Fat Greek Olympic Dream, cameras follow Nemone
as she trains in a bid to be fast enough to compete at the highest level.
