Swan TV have made many chat show programmes and have the studio, facilities and know-how to help you produce a programme that is professional. It’s up to you to provide the theme and the guests. We currently produce a Poetry Show, a Musical Theatre Show, a general Local Show and a Comedy Chat Show.
Our new Film Making Group welcome you to participate in any role, using cameras, lighting and sound, writing scripts, acting, directing or making props. The list is inexhaustable. This is a relaxed group making short films.
Why not make your own show on your particular interest. We’ll set up te studio and do the technical stuff, you just bring the quests. We’ll teach you how to overcome the fear of talking in front of the cameras and how to present, what you need to do before the show and how to put your guests at ease. WE will help with the asociated text if necessary. So you’ll learn in a practical way. THE CHALLENGE IS ARE YOU WILLING TO FACE THE FEAR.

Victorian philanthropist Felix Subway; bourgeois apple-pimp, mime cellist, celebrator of all things folded, heroic coward with a whisper lisp. Wearing his cravat of finest bee-skin and candle wax shoes he sips port from a velvet slipper asking passers-bye if they they’ll cover his eyes with moth wings. Died in 1734 from a septic eyebrow,
