@Christiana, where did u hear about those WUAM clips?

Yeah, i wonder why the actor who acts asPedro/Aurelio always plays weak characters.
Anyway it fits him

@Saintkola pls get back to me

Yes J.K waiting 4 the real Rodrigo Abed/ Fabian to make his appearance

@Salsera yes am sure thats not the guy, their eyes too are not the same as you said.
I looked at him very closely and he doesnt resemble Fabian at all

Hey i dont think that Leopoldo guy was the guy who played Fabian in WUAM. I read somewhere that he would appear only in 1 episode but Leopodo has appeared in many,

What do u guys think about it? Anyone registered yet??


Views from a Distance is a live action television documentary series in which three ordinary Nigerians who have never travelled abroad from Nigeria, and chosen randomly from a pool of those expressing interest through a national competition, travel abroad as ambassadors of Nigeria.

The three ambassadors will be accompanied by a production crew that will film them as they interact with the people of the world, telling them about the positive changes that are taking place in Nigeria since the transition to civil rule in 1999. To do this, first they will seek to understand their views of Nigeria. In other words, they will be saying: tell us what you know about us and if you’re correct we’ll confirm it; if not, we’ll tell you our story—the truth. We’ll tell you how far our country has progressed since 1999 in these areas:
• Government’s Economic Reforms
• NEEDS
• SEEDS
• Macroeconomic Stability
• Institutional Reforms
• Structural Reforms
• Sectoral Reforms (Financial, Telecommunications, etc.)
• Anti-Corruption Drive (EFCC, ICPC)
• Transparency in Government Business (Due Process, NEITI, etc.)
• HIV/AIDS (NACA)
• MDGs
• Sustainability

Views from a Distance will be filmed and broadcast over the course of one year beginning in October 2006 and ending in October 2007. There are four quarterly series of thirteen weekly episodes each.

A different set of ambassadors will be chosen for each series.

Series One will take the ambassadors to Europe.
Series Two will take the ambassadors to USA and Canada.
Series Three will take the ambassadors to Japan and the Far East.
Series Four will take the ambassadors to Australia and New Zealand.

Eligibility for Participation

Four simple rules:
• Any Nigerian over the age of 18

Hey u guys should engage in meaningful analysis of the show.
I think that its too bad that Amelia as one of the cental characters has to die, her death will leave many unanswered questions for many especially Luisa.
Anyway thats the suspense of these soaps, anytime things appear to get resolved more complications occur

Sure, where are u guys know? I mean which part are they showing? Here they edited it and didnt show the whole thing

This is an excerpt from the bbc site which featured the story

"She will fly at an altitude of 10km (6 miles) on G-Force One, before dropping, giving a minute of weightlessness.

These parabolic flights on board a Boeing 727 are used as a training exercise for astronauts - and have been given the nickname the "vomit comet". They do not leave the atmosphere but simulate the experience of being in space.[color=#990000][/color]
