Official film for Derry~Londonderry City of Culture bid

Marie-Louise Muir | 12:26 UK time, Tuesday, 13 July 2010

The official film produced to support the Derry~Londonderry UK City of Culture 2013 bid has gone online. Voices. Made by the Nerve Centre, produced by Pearse Moore and written by John Peto it is an homage to the new face of the city.

It starts with the voice of poet Seamus Heaney reading from his play "The Cure at Troy" and ends with a young girl, Rebecca Ramsey, walking towards the camera saying

"I have a new story to tell /I need to tell a new story/Just say yes"

Just Say Yes is the Snow Patrol song, Gary Lightbody's granny was from Derry and the band gave permission for the song to be the bid anthem

The winning city is being announced at 7.25pm this Thursday 15th July live on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's "The One Show".

I'll be broadcasting live from Derry for a specially extended "Arts Extra" on Thursday nightΜύto capture the moments before and after.
