This was a report we did last summer with the national TV station:

Don't even try to get your head round the swiss german gobbledy gook. Dialects crack me up! One of the lessons in learnt from this is the advantage of using a really big lift. On past occasions we had the camera man up in the tree with us. Here the guys brought in a 50 meter bucket truck. Initially I thought that was a touch of overkill, but actually it was great... really flexible and some really interesting shots.

If you get the opportunity to do something like this don't be shy... it really is amazing the response you get from a even a short report like this.
 
I keep getting "Requested URL is not valid". Is it working for anyone else?

Oh, and a belated Happy Birthday Mr Bridge

it worked for me, and yes there was some posing. Mark B a poser after all!!

Good video, very proffessional, didn';t understand a word of course, although I'm guessing Mark was word/dialect perfect! Most brits just talk louder when abroad! reg you need a thirty meter platform and pro cameraman with you on every job, surely the BBC would do a fly on the wall/docu/soap/drama/northern character type program.

RIP Fred Dibnah!
 
I actually have no sound on my computer at the moment so if Mark was speaking english, the above post will make little sense, as usual!
