A local drama student was filmed by the BBC last Tuesday for the BBC One show Points of View.

Jack and Ben on PoV
Jack Blundell from Rochester, an undergraduate at Canterbury Christ Church University's centre in Folkestone, and his fellow student and comedy partner Ben Steele from Dover were invited to film an insert for the show giving their points of view on comedy programming on the BBC - but in their own unique style.
Dressed in their comedy compere suits and sitting relaxed on a sofa in The Quarterhouse in Folkestone, the boys riffed about comedy for 10 minutes (which was edited down to just 2 for the broadcast) as well as asking serious questions about new comedy programming and how young comedians can get their voices heard on the BBC.
Jack and Ben are in their second year at the University, and as well as working hard on their degrees, they are also in rehearsals for their own comedy sketch show, Blundell and Steele, which will be performed at the Quarterhouse on 11 December.
Points of View was broadcast on Sunday 21 October and if you missed it, you can view it again online with BBC Catch-Up at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006mysv, and if you just want to see the boys segment log onto http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0100949.
