TV Filming

Postby XUX636 » 07 May 2014 09:01

Hi All.
Would anyone out there like to help with some forthcoming TV filming. I am the picture vehicle co-ordinator on a new TV comedy whose main character will have a yellow TR7 and we will be filming on several days from the end of May to the end of June probably in Suffolk and London.

Naturally there is a fee to be paid and we provide all the technical physical and administrative support. I be grateful to hear form anyne.
Regards,
John Miller

I, for one, am sick and tired of all this color prejudice against WHITE TR7's. What's the matter? Can't a WHITE TR7 jump high enough?, run faster?, have a big enough rear end? Are WHITE TR7's not ghetto enough for the other colored TR7's?

This reverse political correctness has gone too far!

What about Russet Brown !!!

We can all scream about our favorite color.

Was the TR7 in the new avengers yellow? Yup, a clear case of favouratism I believe.

Ah, yes. You may be correct!

And let's not mention the WHITE car used in the TV Series 'Wilde Alliance' lest Mildred gets to find out!

Yep! Much as it would be nice to see a 7 in a TV show, I'm afraid I would not be prepared to let some actor, or TV production company "look after" my 7 for me. Too many horror stories for me.

Just imagine letting the Top Gear mob loose with your car.

Can I assure you all firstly that nothing derogatory will be said or implied about the car and it has to be yellow because that's what the director wants. This is a professional production crewed by professional people and there is no likelihood of severe driving or stunts.

I'd be grateful if someone could get directly in touch or even pass me details of an owner whose car may be suitable.

Thanks all.

John

If you think I'm being obtusely mouthy, just wait till we pour a can of Fosters down Cobber's gullet. I have every faith he can tell us how the cow ate the cabbage in a WHITE TR7.

Cows? Cabbages? White TR7S? I think I've lost the plot!

This appears a very good avenue to give the TR7 some good publicity & there looks like some negitive vibes out there.
Why bother with the 30 year road run if this is the attitude.

Ive lent my cars to Top Gear, Cheri Lunghi(an English actress) and many classic car journalists and find they have always treated them with respect.
Im not sure this is the place for sarcasm or the excuse offered. It doesn't amuse everyone.
