Did anyone see

Did anyone see our Graham Cluer on Sky News? He was featured on this Saturday's news clip on the total eclipse that is taking place in the US. Happy viewing G!

Didn't see Graham on the news, but here is a short transcript:
Just over 12 million Americans live inside the path of totality, but millions more people will come from abroad, including from the UK.
Graham Cluer, his wife Adrienne and friend Gwen Lawton from south London booked their trip two years ago and said that, even that early, getting a hotel was "tricky".
The amateur astronomer has packed an entire suitcase of camera equipment, hoping to capture the moment.
"Everyone says 'don't take a photograph of it, just go there and enjoy', but no, I want that photograph of the diamond ring around the Sun."

I did not see the news item either, but maybe there will be a shot of the eclipse on this forum soon?
