Hargroves on BBC Broadcast May 31

Tom Hargrove just sent me this e-mail and I wanted to share it with you all:

The program “Kidnapped” will be broadcast through a new series called “Reunions”—bringing together people who have shared dramatic experiences in the past—on Friday, May 30, over BBC World Service Radio.

In February, BBC brought together and interviewed, in it's London studios, Claudia Greiner, David Little, and me. The Greiners are a German family who were our next-door neighbors in Cali. They played a key role in the kidnap and negotiations. The Greiners now live near Frankfurt.

David Little was one of the two professional K&R (kidnap and ransom) hostage negotiators who handled my case. He is former Scotland Yard, and now lives in the UK

My brother, Raford Hargrove was also interviewed extensively, from a studio in Abilene, Texas.

Broadcasts will be at 3:05 p.m., 6:05 p.m., and 1:05 a.m. (May 31) Central Time. (BBC announced the program as 1005, 1305, and 2005 Greenwich Time.) Go to the BBC site and click on “Listen Live.” The program will be at least 30 minutes long.

The new Texas A&M University Press edition of my book, Long March to Freedom, was mentioned.

Also, the Discovery Channel came to Alabama in April to film for a 1-hour TV documentary on a new program called “Paradise Lost”. The program will be both interviews and re-enactments, with actors.

I don’t know when Paradise Lose will be broadcast, but Discovery brought Raford to Alabama for an interview, and Oscar Tejeda, the former FBI agent who was assigned to my case and who became a lifelong friend of my family. Oscar now runs his own security company, also in K&R, with offices in Miami and Bogata.

Be sure to tune in to the broadcast, which will air next Saturday. To check out Tom's books and affiliations, go to the links list for Tom Hargrove on the lower right of this page.
