Nearly There....

Its a week to go to the launch of Daybreak...
there are a few odds and sods to tidy up ( ! ) before we are ready,
but I'm ALWAYS up for a challenge.

I've got a feeling that its gonna be a long FUN week !
I love Telly....

T W 3

That was the week that was !
Am I showing my age ?
If you immediately thought the top line of this post when I called it TW3 then I'm not alone ;-)

Had a couple of weeks on the contrasting island of Lesvos, hired a little car and spent the time racing around various sights, towns and resorts. Interspersed with lazy times by the swimming pools ( all 7 of them !) and having long chats with the very sensible hotel owner's young adult kids whospoke great english and who have decided on great careers.

But back to work for both of us and although the texts and emails didnt stop whilst we were away, things have really stepped up a gear at the London Studios.
The Smart Glass has been fitted in the studio, the majority of the electronics have been installed and final tests and tweas are being made, at the same time as we are still outputting GMTV for the final few weeks.

I wont post any photos until we are on air, but I want to write an article for The Guild of TV Cameramen towards Christmas so I have been taking plenty of pictures.
After long days all week my final job yesterday was to hang a time lapse camera in the ceiling of the studio to see the set going in this weekend !

Here goes , heads down for a mad rush to the end of GMTV and the Start of ITV Daybreak !
