Here we have another nice example of the Fairlight Players' set-building skills. The lights (commented on in previous notes) are clearly shown once again, but on this occasion the producer has decided to do without any stage extension. What is particularly interesting here though is the video camera seen in the bottom right corner. In 1993 this would have been a rare and very expensive piece of kit for the home user. I know, because I bought one at around the same time. Mine was a "portable" model (a description which it only just merited) and, compared to today's models (costing a fraction of the price) the picture quality was awful. I wonder if any footage still exists. P.S. In case the "copyright police" are reading this, we have no idea who the camera belonged to, and deny all knowledge of any recording being made.
