7     Tom Reminisces

Tom's "Personal Perspective" was scheduled to finish before the satellite link up for "The Replica Switch-On". But satellite timing is unforgiving, and the Event started a few minutes late anyway. Tom before the event would have been totally happy to only speak for a few minutes, but in the event he warmed to his task and the Presenter, Beverley Ashworth, gracefully interrupted him and then returned to him afterwards!
