Old Absolute Radio interview

[dit]

I've no doubt this will be already on the board somewhere, but I've just come across it - an excellent interview from December 2009.

(Don't know why it won't link. but it will copy/paste fine.)

Dit, I've a feeling that the reason it isn't automatically parsing the link is that you've got the embed code for the video rather than the link to the page there, and it's a secure link. It's probably looking for things that either start 'http' or 'www', so 'https' might be confusing it too.

Thanks for that, Wy. I don't quite understand the technicalities of links, and the URL (I think?) I used is copied direct from where I found it on YouTube, but it seems to work as a link now if I take out the 's' in 'https'

Don't know whether you mean it wasn't working as a copy/paste (it still is for me) but at least it should be easier now.

It'll be ironic if, now that people can get at it, they're saying "Oh, that old thing? Seen it"!

Oh, that old thing? Seen it! ;D

But my, am I happy to see it again! Excellent interview that I had forgotten about. Thanks, Dit!

[trustme]

Oh, that old thing? Seen it! Loved it! Delighted to see it again! That interview has always been a favourite of mine, so much so that I put a copy onto a CD so that I can listen to it while out in the car. Prawn sandwich, my derriere Think I'd be more concerned about what he'd washed that sandwich down with, and how much ;D
