Just a brief appearance as a 21st Century bystander drinking tomato soup under a tree at Bowood house yesterday, which apparently was standing in for Hyde park, plus a small cameo in a Harry Potter film masking as Voltaire recently shot at Lacock Abbey, keep your eyes open for an olde rustic hobbling out of the walled gardens smoking a very long pipe.
This filming lark is all about timing.

The tree stole the show.

I think the “Tarks 4 Midfield” placard will probably give you away

The tree was very supportive, always need good props.

Grosicki off the radar?

You'd need to bump the thread when the Poldark episode will be aired.

Amazing just how many takes they make of very simple scenes, in the time we were there they'd only managed one scene involving a moving carriage, and a flock of young children, mind you having local yokels emerge into the line of vision didn't help.

How many takes?

appearing in crud like harry potty films would be an embarrassment for any normal person.

He'll start a new one, he's good at doing that.

What do they pay extras these days ? A semi-retirement job ?

I don't live too far away from the Eastenders filming set and I could eat a pie on command.

Why I'm not likely to see you in Burnley?

I was at Lacock the other week, when they were filming. Didn't see anything.

Surely you saw some filming?

No. Lots of marquees but access was denied to the filming area. Only gardens available.

Lacock is beautiful place, in an equally beautiful part of the country.

Should have talked to the man on the gate Ian or taken a walk down the river to get a view of the cloisters.

Or even have come into the allotments.
