Durga in London

Thought I'd just let any UK residents know that a programme has just started on Channel 5 about Durga Puja in London. That is all.

Oh! I'd watch it if I was there.

Depending on when they made the film I might even be able to spot myself taking part!

Do let us know which temple(s) were featured.

They're in Kolkata now persuading a idol-maker to come to London to create an idol... 'eye like a mango leaf, nose like a parrot's beak'

The Calcutta filming looked like it was done during the 2005 festival.

The London event was part of a Bengal Exhibition mounted by the British Museum. Follow the Durga link

Oh... I used to take part (mostly in the music) in the South Indian (Sri Lankan) temples in London.
