Documentaries about Summer Wine
- Thread starter WellyMan
- Start date
A short piece of filming took place today of Edies Pegdens Original car that was used in 'Edie & the automobile' & many other
episodes. WRH132J was again under the spotlight, being filmed by Peter and narrated by our very own 'theatrically_inclined' Leigh.Thanks to both for their time, expence and effort put into doing this, for what will be just a 1 minute inclusion in the 2023 documentaries.

Thank you Graham for bringing 'Edie', where we were able to make her feel at home in a ditch again!
I might have been a bit of a rash with my "1 minute" estimate, but there is a lot to fit it!
Thanks to Peter for directing and filming.
Bless you Graham, I can tell by looking at the car you've polished it to perfection, Wesley would be looking down on you so proud, Edie on the other hand wouldn't let you onto her kitchen floor in those mucky shoes

I am back in Summer Wine country Friday to Sunday (2 - 4, September 2022) for some more filming for the documentary videos.
If you are around and see me, I don't bite but I might be a bit flustered as it's a solo-shoot. I'll be back with cameraman Pete, probably in a few weeks.

Do you have any dates when these documentaries will be broadcast yet?

No actual "schedule" as yet, but hoping to start in January 2023.

Just back from 3 days in Yorkshire, having been swearing a lot.
Swearing at:
Ever.
These projects always seem destined to give me headaches, and knee- and back-aches!
I'll be back there again soonish!
(* I'm slightly mobility impaired)
Swearing at:
- the 25 steps from the car park down to my accommodation and the two flights of stairs up to my room, putting me back on the same level as my car*,
- the battery dying on No1 camera, and having to walk 200 yards to the car to get a fresh one,
- getting all set up for one shot to realise I've got the wrong shirt on (continuity) and - yes - walking 200 yards back to the car to change,
- realising that I was out of synch with the record start / stop button and I'd just recorded me faffing about and not the actual content,
- noticing the battery low light on the radio mic transmitter - how am I supposed to see that when its behind me all day?
- the teleprompter for going too fast, or stopping for no reason,
- the rain: I left the car passenger door and tailgate open and I got soaked anyway - 2 mins later, bright sunshine.
Ever.

No prizes for the astute members recognising the location ... and I wasn't just lounging about, this was "work".
