When Billy Met Holly...(& Holly Met Sophie)
Posted: 29 Jan 2009, 12:35"The best shoot I've ever been on..."
That was the verdict of James one of Holly's crew after they spent a day at the Splosh! studio on Monday. James, Holly and camerawoman/co-director/stills photographer Kirsten were making a documentary for Holly's degree in TV Production at Bournemouth Uni - and decided to make it about sploshing. Well, as far as we are concerned they graduated with honours as Holly spent nearly a week visiting sploshers, models and me and getting sploshed herself on two occasions.
After a day spent interview Richard and watching some of his videos, the first sploshing (pictures of this will follow later) was with Slimey Sophie and Jonny and filmed at the Uni's own studios joined by students interested in sampling the action. Then they came to our place....
It was a really fun day - actually one OUR best TV shoots as well - and they were all great to work with. As well as listening to me ramble for hours, Holly larked about dressing up in one of our macs, caning her crew and messing around with my now notorious gold cock. And when it came to her sploshing, she really was a great sport.
These pictures don't do her sploshing justice as they were taken at the end, but during the session Holly received a damned good pieing (at least a dozen including a Clown Julie style four-pie sandwich), about seven litres of custard, a huge bowl of rice pudding, chocolate and raspberry syrup, a gallon of thick green cake mix, a huge Hayley-style pie and then hit me with a chocolate cake that was intended for her to sit in! Still the photos do capture the fun of the day, and when Holly gets down to the long task of editing she says she might be able to let us have some screen grabs of her in action.
Till then, enjoy... and thanks to Holly and her crew for a really entertaining afternoon.
PS James says he wants to give sploshing a go now...
PPS Sorry about the first photo. Pretentious? Moi?
