Here.

Rendezvous is at 11:30 at St Pancras for the 1300 Eurostar. The sense I always get when travelling - that you are only one official objection away from being turned back and sent home - is especially acute with seven of us here and a mountain of kit. The x-ray machines take exception to the jib arm’s counterweights. But we get on and get away and are soon whistling across Kent. We are recceing for the train shoot on the way back. Martin Lightening grabs shots from outside the train windows. Martin Wilson listens to the changes in pitch and volume as the train enters the tunnel. Paris in two hours. Fixer extraordinaire Camille and her colleague/boyfriend Lambert are waiting. Lambert has the van parked bang in front of the station (in London there would be a controlled explosion). This and the heavy traffic convince us to make the first executive decision of the shoot - hire Lambert (Paul was going to drive the van). We make Pere Lachaise with fifty minutes til closing. We march around trying to get our bearings and find our locations - not unlike the characters, then…
