The Dark Side of the Earth: September 7th, 2006

Whilst I remember, let it be known that this film is now officially called The Dark Side of the Earth. I dropped the Shadowland bit to avoid confusion with other films, and that Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young song. (An easy mistake to make.)
The Videomatic Shoot: Part II went fine. Well, come on, how difficult can it be to shoot a melon derailing on an ice cube as it travels along an old curtain rail? Not that difficult. This isn’t Soul Searcher, and there is no curse. Yet.
Other highlights of the day included flying a party balloon into the garden hedge (until it popped, startling poor Jen) and Rob viciously impaling kitchen roll with a bamboo skewer.
“That’s a wrap,” I announced at 4:30pm. “Who fancies some melon?”
