    Anyone seen Bridget Jones's Diary?
    Try to imagine this scene covered in fake snow! ;)

    We were on a narrow-boat hol once, on the Calder Hebble near Brighouse in Yorkshire, when we were told to stop, turn off all engines, and if we wanted we could come and watch - they were filming last of the summer wine, when Foggy annoyed some poor b***** so much he dived into the canal - and they did it 3 times beforee they let us get moving again! All good fun! ;)

    I was bumped into Fred Gee at Scarborough. I live such an exotic life.

    [​IMG] You live in such a beautiful part of the country Paladin - well, I assume that pic was taken somewhere near you!

    We were in Jersey one year when they were filming an episode of Bergerac. Stood and watch some guy starting up his motorcycle to drive down the road..Every time they started filming his motorbike stalled! After 5 or 6 tries he did it ok whereupon everybody cheered and so they had to take the scene again :D
    We never did get to see John Nettles.
    Watching the episode on TV this scene was all of 5 seconds on the starting title.
