Colin Grainger & Marieta Evans | London 2012 Memories: Editor’s Choice
A live interview with Colin Grainger, Newham Recorder former editor and local historian. As the saying goes, News are the first rough draft of History – that’s why the man who wrote and edited all major events when they were news is best placed to share the tale now that they are part of our History. Colin has lived first hand and covered all major events and breaking news stories in Newham, as well as discovering hidden gems, collecting and writing about forgotten stories and people’s stories. With Colin we will have a look at some of the biggest stories and also unheard curiosities he discovered through his work as roving reporter and editor, with a focus on London 2012.
