On Location with the BBC...

Hi all,

Not being one to blow my own trumpet...But lord knows I've tried..You know, wedging yourself down the back of a cupboard or a narrow alley or even attending extreme Yoga classes...

Heres me at the glorious tropical location of Stoney Cove quarry with top Natural History presenter Alan Titchmarsh... I'm on the right in the gimp outfit !!!

we were there filming a few sequences for a piece in the new blue chip production 'Nature of Britain' coming out in the Autumn (fall).

All inspired by my exploits with the infamous Pike (Esox Lucius)

Hey cool Dean.

You have your foot in the door now.

Thats a funny looking 3mm steamer you have on there.

Dean, you two could be brothers!

haha congrats mate!

Is he as camp in real life as he is on tv!?

you sure did your HSE course quick

Well done Dean - happy for you! Better buy that Z1 fast!

Great stuff Dean!

Hope that you'll still talk 2 the rest of us now.

Alex

Cheers guys...

Wags, 3mm they were going to put poor old Alan in a semi-dry but when I told em it was 11oc they gave him a quick dry-suit lesson...He did very well seeing it was his 4-5th dive.

Nick, the principal shooter was using a Z1 with a Phenom and a Gates as back up...Make of that what you will. But all was hired...Now there's something to think about.

Si, no mate he was a top bloke, very down to earth and had time for everyone. I was the only camp one, if you lowered the photo I was wearing sussies and heels

Alex, mate come on, you've met royalty..Alans good but he's not blue blood...Well after two dives in Stoney he was blue nosed and fingered

Dean(speaking through my P.A)B

sweet Dean!

Congrats Dean! Great to see you getting into the big time - well deserved.

Hey Dean, good to see you in that company! You looks like an ancient knight in your dry suit, starting to fight against the saracens

Please, give us further details how the work is going on, maybe the rest uf us can learn something interesting from you!

Jules

Cheers guys,

Ant, I would quite say 'Bigtime' as yet...But I'm getting to where I want to be.

Jules, "Learn something from me"... maybe a few rude jokes and how not to film but if I can help in anyway...Just ask.

Take care

I got that photo via text SMS while I was relaxing on a beach in the Philippines watching the sunset and with a cool beer in my hand - I was NOT sorry that I wasn't at Stoney!!

Seriously though well done mate - not sure why they needed a 'primary' shooter when you were there, but that's the Beeb for ya.

Cheers, Simon

No HSE or the gig might have been mine...

Next time.

Dive safe
