Another angle on the BBC documentary

Hi everyone

Thanks for all your help in tracking down Falafel.

The producer I'm talking to is really keen to work on a backgammon documentary but even after I told him everything I could think of, he is struggling to find a story that would be interesting to non-backgammon players.

After everyone was so helpful earlier, I thought it might be worth asking whether anyone has any ideas for what is a particularly exciting angle on backgammon for a documentary? The idea is to find a story within the game and then we will talk about the game in order to explain the story.

I will write up all your ideas and take them to the producer.

Thanks Zoe
