Over Folkestone - The Real Light At The End Of The Tunnel

Folkestone is a wonderful town on the south east coast of Kent. It has, for centuries, been known first as a fishing town, then a resort created by Victorian architects for visitors from far and wide to travel to, to promenade and for over a century, travel to France by sea. With the arrival of the Channel Tunnel, which Folkestone is the terminus of, came the erosion of the town and the disappearance of it’s ferry business and the knock on effect on the town and many of it’s small businesses. We talk to them to put them on-air. To be on a show email dan@voxiferistudios.com or goto voxiferi.com

Episode 4: She's the actual Mermaid - Georgina Baker

Everyone who comes to Folkestone, everyone who picks up a tourist pamphlet on the town, buys a postcard, Google’s Folkestone, or sees Folkestone on the internet or TV is always greeted by scenes of a colourful seaside town, but at the heart of that messaging for more than a decade has been a Mermaid. A real mermaid - well as real as it gets. You see we grew up with Georgina Baker, went to the same school, we were even cub scouts together (yes George was a cub and an amazingly cool one too). And during the Triennial she applied to be, and was chosen from a list of applicants, to be the lifecast for the bronze Folkestone mermaid that sits atop a large granite boulder on Sunny Sands. For tourists and other folk she is absolutely hand in glove part of the Folkestone diaroma. Every time Dan or I walk past her (which is regular as we are so tight as to park on East Cliff and walk to town) we have to smile, with a mixture of huge pride and hubris, that our George is sat on the rock. My eldest, Christopher, now 14, met her a few weeks after the lifecast was put in place but was tiny in a pushchair, and they’ve grown up me telling them about this amazing girl who became an amazing principled woman and mother and who is forever Folkestone’s Mermaid. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Mr Daniel File and Ms Georgina Baker. Ready to take control of your household bills?

Episode 2: Dandy Vintage

The kick Folkestone needed was to move into the sort of territory Camden Market has made it’s own. To breathe important, brave and innovative new life into a sector of the regeneration of Folkestone. And Rob and Debs from Dandy Vintage, headquartered in Hastings where they founded their first flagship store have decided Folkestone is a new home for their ambitions and their amazing range of high quality retro clothing for men and women. Rob Dyson is at the helm of the newly opened store in Folkestone. His utterly infectious smile and his welcome buoyed only by the burst of colour and clever design thought that has created an implosion of smiles on the faces of anyone who walks through the door. Folkestone has never seen anything like it, and the belief and the enthusiasm that Rob brings, aligned to his capability of being able to make every single customer feel they matter is infectious.
