Tsunami Drama

Those of you with access to UK - BBC TV might want to watch tonight at 9pm Uk time. They are showing a 2 part dramatisation of the Tsunami- the aftermath. Filmed in Thailand, you might see some of your favourite spots or even friends. Quite a few Thais in the preview clips i saw.

One of the lead actors is Samrit Michaelson - not sure if hes 100% Thai but he has the accent and is very cute.

Do you think its too soon adter the horrible events for them to show this?

Tsunami(The Aftermath) is also being shown in South East Asia, on HBO Asia, on the 26th December.

Samrit's father is Dutch and mother Thai.

Interesting interview with the very handsome Samrit:

Well that was certainly quite a sad , moving & emotional experience. I wont spoil it by giving too many details for those that will see it later.

It was pretty well done with a lot of real footage mixed in with the acted bits.

I surprised myself by how much Thai i understood, The BBC shortened a lot of the text translations ( limited text screen space?)

Looking forward to part 2, but this may be a tough watch for anyone who lost friends in the tragedy. You will need the Kleenex handy. My friend lost his house but thankfully he & all his kin were ok.

They implied that a lot of bodies were burnt in first 2 days before being Identified - i hadn`t heard this before - true? Could explain why so many still listed as missing.

Khun Samrit could be a big star.

Also so many were washed out to sea and never heard from again. (Use your imagination on that one).

Cheers ...

Given the Americans' obsession with their own (self-inflicted) horrors of 7-11, including endless televison features, documentaries, reconstructions, recent movies ... ?

Or possibly 9-11. My local 7-11 is quite friendly.
