Ann Arbor's resident "fairyologist" Jonathan b. Wright will hang out and talk fairies at the Artisan's Market at Kerrytown on Sunday, August 4, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m., while face painting, crafts, art and live music combine to celebrate these tiny mythical creatures. (Attendees are invited to dress in fairy apparel.)

But Wright and some of Ann Arbor's "official" fairy doors will also be featured in the Children's British Broadcasting Company (CBBC) children's show, "All Over the Place."

Wright answered a few questions via e-mail about his involvement in the show.

Q. Could you talk about when and how you were contacted?

A. May 17, 2012. I received an e-mail from an employee of BBC in Glasgow, Scotland, who worked in the children's department on the television show "All Over The Place" (The show is a fun and fact-filled travelogue, and their presenters visit unique, fun, and interesting places. This season, 2013, focused on the U.S.A.)

Q. Was this a segment of a single episode?

A. Yes, just a segment. Also included was the Toilet Seat Museum in Texas (as well as some other fascinating places).

Q. What was the gist of the segment? Which locations did the TV crew visit, locally?

A. The hosts Ed Petrie and Michelle Ackerley (dressed as fairies, Ed with green hightops) investigate the rumors of fairy doors and stumble upon a fairy car (the U.F.O. commuter alternative fuel fairy vehicle) and me. I introduce them to their 1st fairy door at Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea (123 West Washington) and then they are off on the hunt. They find one at The Peaceable Kingdom (210 South Main Street) and RedShoes Homegoods (332 South Ashley). Then a flash to a bit about tooth fairies with Ed and another male actor as tooth fairies.

We did a lot more filming, with much more dialogue and including The Ark (316 South Main Street) and The Selo/Shevel Gallery (301 South Main Street, the door is on the Liberty side)

Q. Any word on whether it will become available here, or available online anytime soon?

A. I don't think so. They have posted some segments online in the past.

Q. You've watched the episode. What did you think?

A. It's kinda funny. It's a silly kids show with bits of interesting "culture" and geography thrown in. There was some good stuff that was cut out. Both Ed and Michelle are quite fun and funny. Ed was not [fazed] at all being dressed in a tutu. He can actually really act and sings too (not in this segment). They were real troopers as it was very hot and humid during filming, with lots of takes.

With each show there is usually a song about one of the locations. I was sad that there was no fairy door song.
