Re: Holiday Dilemma
I was similarly frustrated by a film crew a few years ago in Whitby. We'd parked near the Co-op and walked across the bridge to another shop or two. When we tried to get back the bridge was open so we couldn't cross. A pirate ship was coming up river. then going down river, then coming up river again, the going down river............... whilst being filmed. They can never get it right first time can they?
Time was going on and we knew our carpark ticket would be running out. There were crowds of people building up either side of the bridge and we tried to get to the front in the hope of dashing across as soon as it opened when we were approached by a big lump of a guy who said, "If you'll just be a little more patient Mr. Hoskins will sign autographs as soon as we've finished fiming this scene" Autographs? We just wanted to get back to our flippin car!!!!
The film was apparently called "Captain Jack" but we never did hear of it coming out in the cinema. Maybe they changed the star and the location and renamed it "Pirates of the Caribbean"!
