Just make him wait in the garden while you do your show - maybe have a camera set up on the doorstep so you can have live feed of the naughty step.

And the mini e-cig discussion made it to the tv

Just saw this - appreciated the clarification about the Driifield event, makes more sense now.

Interesting that they specifically asked you to use the monster mods and blow smoke rings,
I wonder why they did that?

Both teams from the BBC and ITV were very full on for around 2 hours, interviews, photos, recordings, of nearly every move we all made, and most of all, asking us to produce loads and loads of vapour...

So I suppose their choice of viewing footage came down to what were the most viewable images, who knows..

The Gooseneck that Sav, my daughter was using, was what most were attracted to, as it was certainly 'different' and they did ask its design purpose etc., hence it made most of the film put out...

Basically because four folks sucking on what looks like a fag isn't really fascinating news, but there's also the "look you can do smoke rings" thing - always entertaining (apparently). Any news room will look for "extreme" in footage - what you see on the telly is always at one extreme or another. A mum's never sanguine about her daughter being tattooed with a picture of a dead squirrel - she'll always be in tears, red-eyed and acting like the daughter had just died. A bloke will never be measured about his car being reversed into by a steam roller - he'll be blowing his top, fists clenched, barely able to control himself. It doesn't matter that either of those scenes amounted to less than 1% of the footage shot...

There'll be some middle of the road stuff - but, generally, there's an agenda.

I should also point out that all of the vapour footage was shot backlit - and that makes even a wimpy ikkle cloud look like vesuvius erupting.

And finally - they'd already got the footage of the Hull landlord in the can - remember, he was the one talking about folks seeing e-cigs being used and sparking up real ones - and so they had to counter that argument by showing devices that were patently not ciggies.

The ITV cameraman, though, was as big a kid as me - he thought the mods were marvellous - "very 21st century", he said.

Yeah, that makes sense. Regional and breakfast telly can be
a bit 'man stubs toe' at the best of times, so I guess they need
to spice it up as much as they can.
