Yesterday I got back from filming the second episode of the current series of 'Funniest Things' for ITV1. Various themes make up the series, this one being animals.
In the past three days I've experienced everything from waving dead chicks at an owl to make it 'smile' at the camera, wiped emu muck off cables, seen grey seals and basking sharks, been mauled by a huge wet dog and a deep scratch from a manx cat that even my own pussy's have been concerned about.
The weather was some of the worst conditions I've tried to film in, but with an excellent production team from ITV, probably one of the best tv crews in the north west (Jarrod, Tom and Matt) and a very talented presenter (Stephen) we all took on the elements as a team and the final result should be an entertaining and funny show.
The Isle of Man tourist board were indredibly supportive, and Cregneash working village were a huge help when the rain came.
The next location is Hever Castle which is a fantastic setting but also poses new problems- one being filming in the height of the holiday season at a very popular venue, so I suspect large crowds watching us film every link!
