Last Sunday the gardener<Monty Don, did a tv programme which included the Alahambra,Granada, and the Patios Festival, Cordoba. At the beginning of the Alhambra section there was guitar music and I thought I glimpsed a thin faced figure with glasses playing. Wondered if Kate or anyone knew if Emilio Maya had been commissioned to do an intro for this.

RE: BBC tv gardening programme/ Emil... (in reply to Donald)
Hi Donald,
Just got back from holiday and saw this post. Its 7 am here and I got jetlag :(
I'll ask Emilio but the chances are he knows nothing about it and they never even asked permission. Did they use his music as well or just a shot of him playing ? Anything more you can tell me, ie where was he playing ( what did it look like, open air, a club or the festival in Cordoba ?), was he playing something from Temple ? I dont suppose you videoed it ? Possibly it was so short they do not need to ask permission but it would be nice if he had been credited.
