Subject: Thumb Candy on Channel 4 tomorrow!
For those of you who live in Britain, Thumb Candy
will be shown on Channel 4 tomorrow (Saturday), from
23:35 to 00:35 BST!
Information from PTV
[http://ptv.ucd.ie/ptv/ target=new>http://ptv.ucd.ie/ptv/> ]:
"Thumb Candy (Documentary) Iain Lee
presents a history of the video game phenomenon,
travelling the world to meet the genre's foremost inventors,
including Toshihiro Nishikado - creator of Space Invaders -
and Toru Iwatani, the brain behind Pac-Man"
It
doesn't mention Matthew Smith, but he was on Thumb Candy
when it was shown on a digital TV channel earlier this
year, so he could be on this programme! Or is it a
series?
