Rain? in Wales?

Ok this is serious... They have horizontal stuff here, it goes straight into your ears and out the other side. Anyway that was Friday's filming, up in the Shire of Monmouth, beautiful. in fact Ross on Wye gets the award for best dawn sunrise with rolling hills, stunning.
We are now back at the studio, listening to rain hammering down on the tin roof, trying to record two actors whispering a three minute scene. Not the easiest of days work....

Wallabies - in Cardiff!

As I tour some of the finest bed & breakasts in the Cardiff area, this week I'm staying at a lovely farm two miles south of the M4. There are sheep, cows, dogs, fish and, er... wallabies! Bouncing around the fields next to a lovely old mill house in the middle of some beautiful rolling hills.

Currently filming...

"Merlin" Series 2, for Shine / BBC1
We have just finished a fantastic five weeks in France, filming some of the exterior scenes of the new series. Now back at the studios, based in Cardiff and loving that lovely Welsh rain again.
I'm so happy there is so much of it to go around!
Today we have a stunt man hanging on a rope and he is also looking forward to being thrown against a wall this afternoon!
