Hi guys

Well, the pilot episode for my TV series is now online, and I could really do with your help. I need as many unique viewers to watch the video for me. The more people that watch it, then the bigger budget we get for the rest of the series.


I would really appreciate it, it means so much to me

Cheers guys

I have. I will also watch it from work and from my girlfriends house, to rack up the [cough cough] "unique" viewer figures.
You do work very well on camera dude, kudos.

If you ever need a juggler or anything for the show, let me know, I'm very cheap, and I don't cost a lot of money either. :wink:

Really gone off you Mark - youth, TV personality and good looking girls :twisted: Makes me wish I had my youth all over again :lol:

Joking apart I though it was very good indeed - you're a good presenter for such a young age :wink: and will no doubt get better as your experience grows.

I don't think that there would be many that could stand in front of a TV camera and not be nervous (as long as you don't admit to there being 500 takes :lol: ). You showed no nerves at all and I hope that you get more opportunity at Yorkshire TV and I think that it would be well deserved going by the clip.

IM going to be 100% honest, we did the whole thing in 1 take. There was absolutely no room for error because we only had one block of ice there, so it is a continuous take, even the interview was part of the same take - I must admit, i did fluff the interview once, but it was just after my intro shot so was no problems to go back and re do it.


Im glad you all enjoyed it, we had a great fun evening and I got the star treatment completely. I could snap my fingers and the assistant producer would get me anything - I had 4 secuirty guards - and believe it or not, we had an ambulance on standby because of the fire!!!! also did the celebrity thing and posed for photos afterwards!!!

Mark, tell me you're not using the same director for the show as you did for that clip! Although saying that, I was only going to complain about the SJA and such, probably not things that could be "directed" all that much, certainly not in one take.
For a one take affair, it was very nice. Now I can see that at least 2 intercessors were sold!
