After the drama of yesterday, we are straight on to the trail of Zzarbur Cerebus. I’m growing a beard as I feel it’ll help me bond with Ian.

Documentary making involves taking risks. But there’s only so much I’ll do in the line of duty.

Long car journeys can play merry havoc with your skin. My handy hints are to limit the use of air conditioning, drink lots of water and smear tapas on your face - avoiding brie/anything fish based (I learnt that the hard way). Drive safe now.
Love & Light,

So it seems we’re happy families again and the terrible twosome has moved from the car into my hotel.
Though it’s important as a documentary filmmaker for me to have access to my subjects, I find Ian’s approach to breakfast buffet vulgar and I’d prefer it if Dawn didn’t pop up whenever I’m flirting with the hottie behind reception.

This is genuine. Not one of these fake scenes from those lightweight documentaries which are everywhere at the moment.

Always a sensitive film-maker and seeker of truth, I feel that I may be touching sensitive areas. And paying for quite a lot.

When I first started out as a documentary film maker I made a list of things I would never do even for a great story:
1. Put the lives of my immediate family in danger
2. The human trafficking of children
3. Have sex with a woman who marks less than 4/10
4. Black up in inner city areas
5. Sleep rough
6. Eat directly from a tin.
Looks like I’m going to have to revise the last two.

This is the most exciting live event I’ve covered since Big Brother 6 winner Anthony Hutton opened the new Somerfield in Darlington.
