Spent four hours filming new shift ‘spud in’ (start drilling) – god it was boring. And all the while I couldn’t help thinking about all my friends at Charlie-girl’s birthday getting fucked up without me. DOH! (It was Sat night in the UK.) The start of drilling should TV-wise be some climactic conclusion, but in reality is fucking dull as dishwater – and the new shift are lame to film. (To be fair we have only just met them and haven’t built any kind of relationship up yet). Out of four hours we’ll probably use 5 minutes, if that.
Went out late to film the night shifters, but despite being great characters they were doing sod all. Went to bed around 3 – after having tried to make a sequence out of an electrical problem with the drilling, but it just wasn’t happening.
They told us they would be doing something interesting early in the morn so we went to bed for 5 hours kip.
Frustrating day.
Drilling sucks.
