Select a forum:
Camera 1 Exterior.
Focusing on the sun and pannning down to the top of a pair of huge timber uprights.
Camera pulls back to reveal a setting of massive wooden posts in a circular setting.
Tony Robinson steps out from behind the left timber and says;

"So the Neolithic people built these huge fabulous wooden structures inside Durrington Walls,
the largest Henge in the country and the nearest to Stonehenge."

CUT
Camera 2 Exterior at ground level looking up at the wooden circle from the center as TR continues to walk towards the camera.

"These same wooden buildings have been found at nearby Marden Henge and at the famous Avebury stone circles and Henge.
No one really knows the true function or meaning of these incredible places and we can only wonder what the real spiritual meaning of these structures meant in the heads of our neolithic ancestors."

Camera focuses onto TR's face as a small figure appears to rise out of the top of TR's head gradualy getting bigger.

(background voice) Mike Aston.

"A Fucking Cherry Picker!"

TR looks confused and steps to the left and falls into a newly dug but unused posthole revealing a TMA'er ontop a speeding Cherry Picker yelling "Up! UP Higer! Faster! Faster! Focus you sonnofa..." CUT

Camera 1
An out of control Cherry Picker is seen hurtling towards the structure as directors and producers run out from behind the camera yelling;

"Get away from here! Were Filimg here you Daft £&*%(^g B*£#$!*#d"

Cherry Picker does a dangerous about turn and heads off amid an air of obscenities.
Confusion ensues.

CUT

Camera3. Interior of a pub.
TR is sat at the bar gibbering

"A Cherry Picker!? A cherry Picker!"

(Almost a true story! Now would the TMA'er concerned like to own up to riding onto a TV set ontop said Cherry Picker with a digital camera in hand? and can we see some of the footage?)
