Wildlife Producers all look the same...
I had the honour (and pleasure) of attending the Parthenon Party at Wildscreen a few weeks ago in Bristol. Wildscreen is a TV festival where Wildlife producers from all over the world to talk about, well, wildlife. And seeing as the company I presently work for (Parthenon Entertainment) makes loads of wildlife programmes, they let me come too ! Despite my lack of "natural history" or "wildlife" credits to my name - I was often greeted with shocked looks when I told people that I only make documentaries about "people". Shock ! Horror !
Arriving on the red carpet with Bev...

Parthenon sure know how to throw a party - there was a ice sculpture (made of the company's logo) where you got have shots of vodka straight from the horsese mouth; half naked models walking around with free apple martinis and champagne and photographers everywhere taking photos of us to make us feel special !

What did I learn from the evening? All wildlife producers look the same, really, they do...
