Thread Name: Short film from Doc Rowe's collections
Subject: RE: Short film from Doc Rowe's collections
The most laughable thing is to have posted a 'film' of his own as if it is an example of something worthy, which then turns out to be badly filmed, boring and cut with images of stone carvings and green man faces.

Bile venting? Bloody hell, Gillian - I'm not in same league as this choice personal onslaught. I might criticise people's work (only because I care about the subject) but to dare call another human being unhinged? You're on another there. And who said anything about my Cheese Rolling film being worthy? It doesn't have to be worthy - it's YouTube! I did it as a joke - cutting casually filmed footage of this absurd little event with the equally absurd Victorian foliate-faces from the surrounding architecture. It was only meant to be up there a week, but I left it up owing to the amount of hits it got and the general hilarity of the Cheshire vs Gloucester comments, which, as I said, is the most interesting thing about it.

And never once have I questioned the sterling work of Doc Rowe - I just feel it's worth a good deal more than this. A lot more.
