Michael Sanders and Chris Woodcock chat book writing and astronomy with Simon Herbert

Michael Sanders and Chris Woodcock popped into the Hailsham FM studio for a chat with Simon Herbert. Michael spoke about "A Cold Day For Clarissa", a book he has written for children with learning difficulties based on his experiences as a bus driver, with plans for further books. He also chatted about his diverse and fascinating acting career (including a part in a Viz comic strip!). Michael and Chris spoke about their lifelong love of astronomy and how they took up the hobby. Chris chatted about his friendship with Sir Patrick Moore, and how he almost came to have had a comet named after him! They share their love of astronomy by giving talks and presentations to groups of children (with Michael specialising in the solar system, and Chris specialising in deeper space), and have plenty of advice for budding astronomers.
