We haven't forgotten
I think we’ll always remember what we were doing on that day when the news came through. For us it was early afternoon, I was tidying up in the kitchen. Rob was online when the headlines came up on AOL and he called to me to switch on the TV. “There’s something happening in America” he said…

I switched on the telly at the point where the first plane had already hit. (Actually I was looking for the weather forecast).

I didn't know what was going on, but the first thought that went through my head was "What's this film that's on now?". I really thought I was watching another American disaster movie and it took some time before I realised that it was actually happening for real! I had just been admiring the "special effects" which I thought were very well done.

Keith; I thought it was a film too. Apparently when a movie director saw it he said it did cross his mind that what they were doing in films was pretty accurate.
