Monday night
Am in spare room at Dave and Sam’s! On ‘webcameron’ duty which means I have to follow leader everywhere, and help with that internet thingy he does. There’s a huge team of people here, fussing about. As Jed says, spontaneity doesn’t come out of thin air you know!
Did my first shoot today — ‘Dave makes granola-based breakfast while discussing health policy.’ Things got tricky when the false wall the builders put up down the middle of the kitchen to make it look pok-ier started flapping around like an old Crossroads set. Looked like we might have to abandon filming until I came up with a fab idea which everyone agreed would totally dumb things down. Unfortunately we had to scrap the first take, because a certain small person kept shouting out, ‘Daddy, why are we having breakfast in the laundry room?’
Tonight we all gathered around the cheap Formica table (took us ages to find one of these!) for a lasagne supper, and v jolly discussion about how we are not going to play politics with the NHS.
