Fantastic opportunity to wheel out the camera equipment, as my friends and I chose to be part of Morgan Matthew’s ‘Britain in a Day’ project; so took a little jaunty trip to Land’s End to capture Michaela, James, Vicky and yours truly talking about what is important to us etc. right now. (Ref. the project questions on the ‘Britain in a Day’ website)
Looked like a right plant pot frankly perched on the edge of a block of concrete which holds the Land’s End finger post in place but it means if I ever get any whiney contributors in future I have ammo to say “I’ve been interviewed on camera too; you whinger!”
The real hero of the hour was the little photographer who sits up there and charges innocent tourists for pictures next to the fingerpost. (I know I thought it a little harsh too) However, I think he took pity on us and not only did he not charge for us to film at the landmark, he also changed the sign to read ‘Britain in a Day’ so if you ever meet him please pat him on the back, give him a pasty and smile for my sake.
Anyway look out our little group on BBC2 in the near future but if you don’t like what you see; please do not report us to Offcom because I’ll just quote the ‘Human Rights Act’ back at you; thank you very much Labour and Media Law!
