Hello and welcome to Inside Out North West with me Dianne Oxbury. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Tonight, we reveal why people in the region are turning to tanning | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
injections, despite the health risks. You felt like you lost weight | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
with them because it suppressed your appetite and you went brown and who | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
wouldn't want that? 30 years after the miners strikes split communities | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
in the North West, we investigate the finances of former NUM leader | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
starring starring starring. Unfortunately, anybody looking at | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
Arthur now on recent events would see him in a very different light. | :00:35. | :00:41. | |
We discover the extremes one man will go to in the Lake District to | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
get the the `` to get "the" shot. It's a beautiful scene, but the wind | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
is horrendous. It used to be that sun tans were | :00:51. | :01:10. | |
short lived and seasonal. But now, some people crave all`year round | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
colour. While the health warnings about sunbeds have been well | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
publicised, the search for a constant tan has led to something | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
which could be just as harmful, tanning injections. I've been | :01:23. | :01:23. | |
investigating. Lying in the summer sunshine seems | :01:24. | :01:33. | |
like a distant memory, sun bathing on the beach. But some people want | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
to be tanned all year round and they're turning to increasingly | :01:38. | :01:46. | |
risky methods. Melanotan is unlicensed in the UK. It's untested | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
which means its quality, safety and efficiency are not established. It's | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
intended to be mixed with sterile water and inject ared directly into | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
your stomach. The more of it you take, the darker or more tanned you | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
become. Had you had any training at all about how to inject yourself | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
safely? No. I've seen it on YouTube... Ryan is a self`confessed | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
tanning addict from Blackpool. He's been using tan being injections | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
since he was 17. Naturally, I'm very pale. I'm very fair skinned. I don't | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
tan. When I go naturally in any sunlight, on holiday or here in the | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
summer, I just burn. I go pink and then I peel. Then I go white. I | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
can't seem to tan. So I felt like this was the only option for myself. | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
No fake tans? I don't like fake tans. I used to, but sometimes I do | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
occasionally use fake tan, but I don't like spray tans. You decided | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
to go on the injections, how big a leap was it for you? I didn't think | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
much into it. My friends was just taking it. Where did you get your | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
supply from? When we first heard about it... Chris and mark were also | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
tempted by the lure of the so`called Bashy drug. They run their own hair | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
and beauty salon in Liverpool. We started using tan injections, | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
July/August 2009. We were getting married in the December. So we went | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
on holiday to Egypt and we decided that the two weeks wasn't going to | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
be enough. We wouldn't be brown enough. We started using injections. | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
We're one of these people who love to get the thing before it even | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
comes out onto the High Street. We always want to be there. With the | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
injections, they are addict of in the way people were going, oh, my | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
God, the colour of you, you're amazing. You felt like you lost | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
weight with them because it suppressed your appetite. You didn't | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
eat as much and you lost weight and went brown, so who wouldn't want | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
that. The product is illegal to sell, but not to use. The real | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
problem is nobody knows what's in it. Jim McVeigh is deputy director | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
for the centre of public health. He's been working with labs around | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
Europe to assess the contents of these injections. You've no idea of | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
the strength that you're getting. In a recent study conducted with the | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
Danish medicines agency, we found products that have come back, some | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
of them twice as strong as other products that looked identical. | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
Other products have come back where 5% of the actual content have been | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
impurities. It's impossible to be able to make even an prom mags of | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
what `` aprom mags of what would be a safe dosage `` Approximation. How | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
dangerous are the impurities? That depends. We're waiting for the | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
analysis back. This could be anything from funningal, bacterial | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
contamination, house dust. It could be anything. What we're really | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
looking at is the proof of the failure of the system of | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
manufacture. Basically, if any of those things can be in there, | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
virtually anything could be in there. The only way to get hold of | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
it is under the counter in some gyms and beauty salons or to order on the | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
internet. It's really ease whify find online. There `` easy to find | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
online. There are so many websites and you can find it on social | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
networking websites as well. One bottle, ten injections, is around | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
?20. That's about the cost of your average spray tan. After suffering | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
negative side effects, Chris and Mark have decided to stop using | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
Melanotan. What was the turning point, what made you stop? When you | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
injected, whether it was in your stomach or on your thigh, you would | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
feel sick, like within ten seconds. You were nervous about something, | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
butterflies, really intense. Loads of nausea with it. We used to always | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
take it before we wept to sleep, so you sleep and wouldn't feel it. Then | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
the pigmentation started, hyperpigmentation, Mark got a | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
collection of white spots that just wouldn't tan on his body. I got | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
collections of moles. And moles are worrying, aren't they? Yeah. They | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
weren't itchy and they weren't sore. So we just thought it's | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
pigmentation. We were developing things that our bodies never had | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
before through these. That's when we totally banned everything then. No | :06:17. | :06:24. | |
sun, no nothing. Like Chris and Mark, Ryan has experienced side | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
effects while using injections. He's suffered sickness, loss of appetite | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
and skin pigmentation, but now has started to notice something much | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
more serious. My moles have changed colour. I had one on there and that | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
was dark. It's changed. It's gone to pink. That one there, I have a | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
little one there. That was tiny and it's just grown a little bit bigger. | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
I had one on my arm as well. That split in half. But I don't dare go | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
to the actual doctors. I don't dare. I don't dare. Ive know I should `` | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
dare. I know I should. People will watch this and think how criesy are | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
you `` crazy are you. I don't like to phase reality. Do you really feel | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
that you have your head in the sand over this issue? Not head in the | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
sand. I mean, it's just, it's got to the point now where I've taken it so | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
much and I've got used to it, I can't see myself not taking it and | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
going back to being a pale person. And there are plenty of other people | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
like Ryan willing to keep injecting. The Government body, which regulates | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
medicines, the MHRA, has been working to shut down websites all | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
over the world selling Melanotan. They have shut down 80 websites | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
targeting the UK to date. Most of it is being made available through | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
websites. Most of those websites are not hosted in the UK or Europe. | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
They're further afield. But just because they're outside the EU | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
doesn't mean that we cannot take action. Say for example, they're | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
being sold from America or other parts of the world, it's still a | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
case of getting in touch with the service provider and seeing that | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
this particular website is targeting citizens of the UK and it's not | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
legal to do so. Despite being aware of the consequences of his actions, | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
Ryan wants to carry on using Melanotan, even his mum can't | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
persuade him to stopment `` Stop. She knows what I'm doing. I told my | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
mum I wouldn't like to hide it from her. She would notice any way. One | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
week I'm pale, the next minute I'm mahogany. She's going to know | :08:29. | :08:30. | |
something's not right. She has tried to put me off them. But at the end | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
of the day, I'm 21 years old, no matter what people say, I've got my | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
own mind and my own decisions. I will do it regardless. I can | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
appreciate where they're coming from. I know she's trying to care, | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
but it's my decision. Until more tests are done, it's not yet known | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
how this drug could affect people like Ryan long`term. But Jim says | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
it's a long way off becoming legal. It would need to have extensive | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
trials at a population level where it would have to demonstrate that it | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
was safe. Chris and Mark say they're now trying to reverse all the damage | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
they feel they've done to their skin and bodies having used Melanotan. We | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
built a business on saving faces and saving our bodies, being healthy. We | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
preach that now. To look back and think that we done those things... | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
It's stupid, because in a way everything happens for a reason and | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
it's taught us a massive lesson. The way to get this healthy glow? Fake | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
it. Yeah, fake it. Coming up: The film maker finally | :09:29. | :09:41. | |
following his dreams. The path I'm on now in my life that's led me to | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
producing this film started because I got made redun tant. | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
`` redundant. It's almost 30 years since the miners strike began, | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
splitting communities and families in the region. The Lancashire coal | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
field is one of the most prolific in England. Pits like this former | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
colliery, which closed in 1970, now no pits remain. The NUM leader, | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
Arthur Scargill, was one of the most famous and controversial figures in | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
the country. Now he's in a series of disputes with his old union. | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
Tonight, Dan Johnson investigates the financial affairs of the former | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
miners leader. It was an industrial dispute that | :10:23. | :10:37. | |
caused deep divisions and it helped define Mrs Thatcher's Britain. | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
Whatever the rights and wrongs, no`one can deny the hardship faced | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
by miners and their families and the devastating social impact of pit | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
closures in the years that followed. But there's another legacy of the | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
strike, a legacy that still causes real bit Ernst, it's about `` | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
bitterness, it's about money, lots of money and the man who used to | :11:01. | :11:06. | |
lead the miners, Arthur Scargill. Loyalty to every miner and every | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
miner's wife in this country. 30 years ago Arthur Scargill could | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
claim to be the most powerful trade union boss in Britain. He was always | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
controversial. To his critics, he was an enemy within. To many of his | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
supporters, he could do no wrong. Jimmy Kelly was a young miner, he | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
followed Arthur Scargill without question. During the strike there | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
was nothing better than him. We would have followed him to the end | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
of the world and probably, we probably did. Here at NUM | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
headquarters, 30 years after the strike, there's a deep rift between | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
Arthur Scargill and the man who's now in charge of his old union. I | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
think Arthur's lasting legacy, if you take what he did during the | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
strike, just before and just after, then he had a very positive impact | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
on the union. Unfortunately, anybody that's looking at Arthur now, on | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
recent events, would see him in a very different light. Relations | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
between Arthur Scargill and the NUM have hit rock bottom. In 2012 he got | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
an out of court settlement from the NUM over expenses due to him, | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
including a car allowance. A year ago, he lost a battle to stay in his | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
London flat for life, at the expense of his old union. There's no | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
question that the union could afford and can afford the payments of that | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
entitlement, to which I was entitled. One document from the case | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
is an application in 1993 by Mr Scargill to buy his rented flat from | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
the landlord, the corporation of London, at a discounted price. It's | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
at The Barbican in Central London where property now fetches nearly ?1 | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
million. Mr Scargill, one of Margaret Thatcher's fiercest | :13:04. | :13:05. | |
critics, wanted to use right to buy legislation, she introduced so | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
council tenants could buy their own homes. It's so hypocritical it's | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
unreal. It was Thatcher's legislation. The application was | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
refused because it wasn't his primary residence. He doesn't | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
mention in his application that the flat was paid for by the NUM. I | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
think if it had been made public before then, I think there would | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
have been a huge outcry. I think people would be actually astounded | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
by knowing that. Mr Scargill told us the proposal, if accepted, would | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
have been put to the NUM's National Executive and the flat subsequently | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
transferred to the ownership of the NUM. He says it would have saved the | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
union a substantial amount of money and provided them with an asset. If | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
we honestly believe that our demands in this resolution is justifiable... | :13:56. | :14:02. | |
Another document relates to Frank Cave, the vice`president of the NUM. | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
In 2001 he was dying of cancer. His friend and colleague, Arthur | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
Scargill, was about to retire from the union presidency. Mr Scargill | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
had a problem, he wanted to stay in his London flat with rent paid by | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
the NUM for the rest of his life. And on December 7, 2001, a letter | :14:21. | :14:27. | |
was written, apparently by Mr Cave setting out Mr Scargill's | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
entitlements. Mr Scargill gave evidence that the letter was | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
entirely Mr Cave's work, despite the fact his colleague died only a month | :14:37. | :14:43. | |
after it was written. I seen Frank more than most, I would say, I would | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
suggest. As far as I was concerned, Frank wouldn't have been writing | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
letters. An earlier draft of the letter was produced in evidence with | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
an alteration, written in Mr Scargill's own handwriting. In | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
response Mr Scargill said he looked at a small section of the letter, | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
without reading nymph its contents. The issue was whether or not the | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
letter came from Mr Scargill and it was found that it did. Mr Scargill | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
told us he stands by his evidence. He rejects Mr Kelly's allegation. He | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
said the judge inexplicably dismissed other evidence in the case | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
indicating that Mr Cave was alert, aware and orientated right up to the | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
time of his death. This story goes back 30 years to the miners strike. | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
In the end, the miners lost, after that defeat, Mr Scargill's links | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
with an international miners organisation deepened divisions | :15:44. | :15:52. | |
within the NUM. It was to Paris that Arthur Scargill turned more of his | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
attention after 1985. The IMO, now renamed the IEMO, was founded here | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
six months after the strike. It claimed to represent 66. 5 `` 6. 5 | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
million miners around the world. It was headed by Arthur Scargillment | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
The international miners organisation have agreed a formula | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
which they hope will resolve their dispute over the ownership of more | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
than ?1 ?1 million. 1990 there was a public row about ?1 million from | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
Russia which went to the IMO, not the NUM, after the strike. They | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
settled their differences when the IMO donated the NUM ?742,000, both | :16:31. | :16:38. | |
organisations were headed by Arthur Scargill. For Chris Kitchen, this is | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
more than history. He's concerned about the subsequent financial | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
relationship between the NUM and the IEMOment `` IEMO. You can't justify | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
when you don't know what it's been put to. He's established between | :16:54. | :17:01. | |
1985 and 2010, the NUM paid the IEMO, ?712,000, nearly half a | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
million of that was annual subscriptions and it's 20 years | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
since the IEMO last published any accounts. The trouble happened when | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
I was asked to justify paying that amount of money and I asked for | :17:17. | :17:28. | |
accounts for the IEMO. What's the ?20,000 a year been spent on? I have | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
no idea, that's why I wanted to see the accounts. In response to our | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
questions about publishing IEMO accounts, Mr Scargill said they had | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
always presented its accounts in accordance with the instruction of | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
its Congress. We asked him what that meant and so far, he's not got back | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
to us. Shortly before Mr Scargill retired, ?145,000 was paid by the | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
NUM to the IEMO without the NUM's National Executive Committee being | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
consulted. In The Barbican case Mr Scargill said this was the | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
equivalent of what he could have expected as a severance payment. | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
What come out in the court case is that Arthur's belief is that he was | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
entitled to severance payments from the union upon retirement. But they | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
were discretionary and they weren't agreed. He hadn't asked for them. Mr | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
Scargill told us this wasn't a redundancy or severance payment to | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
him. It was money which would have been payable to him, if he had | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
accepted a lump sum, which he hadn't. He said the grant was from | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
an NUM trust fund and did not need to be referred to the union's | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
National Executive Committee. When it came to light and questions | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
were asked at the council meeting, the explanation that was given was | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
that this was money that was, Arthur were entitled to receive but didn't | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
want to receive. Therefore the donation of the same amount of money | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
were made to the IEMO. Are you content with that or do you think | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
there was something more to that? Without seeing the accounts of the | :19:02. | :19:08. | |
IEMO, you can draw different assumptions as to what happened with | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
the money. Clear Mr Scargill's links with the IEMO continue to be close. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
Correspondence recently from the IEMO has emanated from The Barbican | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
flat. Do you think that's inappropriate? Erm...... I | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
personally think it's inappropriate. One of his supporters told us Mr | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
Scargill's a man of complete integrity. To some, he's still a | :19:30. | :19:35. | |
hero. But to others, he's left a bitter and troubled legacy. If you | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
want a president, who's prepared to sit down in a back room, | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
smoke`filled room, and do secret deals, that sell out half our | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
membership, don't vote for me. How much has this all disappointed you? | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
Has it shattered your illusion of what Arthur Scargill was, the man | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
you thought he was? Yeah, unfortunately it has. The perception | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
I had of Arthur, the great trade Unionist, socialist, just is nothing | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
like the reality as to the man I know now and I've been at | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
loggerheads with for most of my term of office. It's that time of year | :20:13. | :20:20. | |
when many of us are starting to think about getting away on holiday. | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
Maybe going abroad, or perhaps you prefer to stay in this country. | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
Well, one man wants to share his obsession with the Lake District and | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
he's prepared to go to extreme lengths to get "the" shot. | :20:34. | :20:52. | |
Coming here to somewhere like the Lake District, it inspired me. | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
I've been come being back here often. | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
It's my baby. I love that raw power it has with the rocks and the rags. | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
`` crags and the exposure you have to the elements. There is a real, | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
true sense of wilderness here that you don't really find in any other | :21:17. | :21:24. | |
parts of England. It just resonates with me on so many | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
levels. I'm sure I should have been a shepherd in a previous life, but | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
oh, well, now I'm just a posh tramp out on the hills. | :21:32. | :21:38. | |
It's this landscape that's testing Terry both emotionally and | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
physically to the limit, with his most ambitious project to date. I | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
want to capture the score fells and arb at its best, through the | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
seasons. But I want to capture it at its worse, hence I'm out on days | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
like today because it gives a true reflection of the character of this | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
mountain. He's spent the last year capturing, in all weathers, the | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
seasons and the people connected with this area, the highest mountain | :22:04. | :22:12. | |
in west Cumbria. What I hope to do in my film is enlighten people, | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
inspire them. I just want to share the glory of this landscape here | :22:17. | :22:23. | |
that means so much to me. To understand Terry's passion today we | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
have to go back 20 years, when he had a suspected heart attack. It was | :22:27. | :22:33. | |
only in my late 20s and it just made me realise how life is so short. | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
Those interests came into real sharp focus for me. There's lots of places | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
I wanted to see in Britain and enjoy and go out backpacking and camping | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
and taking it all in. Then I picked up a cheap camcorder and started | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
taking it out with me. It was only recently that Terry was forced to | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
quit his job as a computer expert, take the plunge and make a living | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
from his passioning I cannot `` passion. I cannot help but smile | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
that the path that I'm on now, that's led me to produce this film, | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
started, really, because I got made redundant. At the time, I was day | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
dreaming of spending lots of time out in the his and developing my | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
craft, film`making skills. As a consequence of that redundancy, I | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
jumped in with both feet and went for it. I've not looked back since. | :23:29. | :23:36. | |
He's a new breed of film maker and can get instant reaction to his | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
work. YouTube is the most popular. People can find you, look at your | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
stuff. To take up the hobby, really, that's what it was, a hobby of film | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
making the outdoors much more seriously and thankfully, for me, | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
it's become my career. To capture every mood of the mountain, Terry, | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
who can't drive, will get the bus to the bottom of the fells. Then he's | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
on foot alone. Well, for the first time in hay couple of days, I've got | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
a signal. I'm just texting the wife to let her know I'm safe and well. | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
She shouldn't need to worry. I'm very, very careful. If it was like | :24:17. | :24:24. | |
this all day, it can be a bit demoralising. But it's the nature of | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
the game. You spend lots of time out here, on the fells, you have to take | :24:29. | :24:36. | |
the rough with the smooth. Normally I'm at least a week out. But it's | :24:37. | :24:39. | |
not unheard of I'm out here for three weeks. I'm at the mercy of the | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
general conditions. I've been unnerved a couple of times. I don't | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
ever get scared. The fear is a state of mind. Winter in. N.Cairngorms can | :24:53. | :25:04. | |
be wild and savage. On a sunny day, when it's warm and dry in the | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
shelter of the trees, it's ease why I to think that it must be the same | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
high up. At the Kendal mountain Film Festival Terry is rubbing shoulders | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
with other outdoor film makers. His first critically acclaimed film from | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
Scotland is being shown. The first week there was a bit of a shock for | :25:25. | :25:26. | |
me. As you can imagine... It's a big thing and it's a big | :25:27. | :25:37. | |
confidence boost for me. As I work on this film, my baby, because | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
that's the one I'm really, really keen and hope that they'll screen | :25:42. | :25:42. | |
here next year. Look at this cracker here. Back at | :25:43. | :26:02. | |
home, Terry is viewing his hard`won footage. It can be challenging | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
coming back home. I'm on a high, I can't wait to see the footage I've | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
got. It's like a jigsaw. It's up to you to pick all the pieces and put | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
them back together to form a complete picture. The film has yet | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
to premiere, but he's whetting the appetite of his future audience | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
using social media. This one has proved to be very, very popular with | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
a lot of my Twitter followers and people on Facebook. "You're crazy | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
Terry. I can't believe you're out in such conditions as this." It's good | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
for morale. I like inspiring others to the delights of the great | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
outdoors and particularly this area. They will see my tweets when I'm out | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
with Bicures of where `` pictures of where I'm camping. It's about | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
maintaining interest in the project. The film is part funded by Terry's | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
followers and sponsors. The rest, from him. Over half the budget for | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
the film has come from the public. But I love the place, it's my | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
passion. So I'm just going to go out there and do it, even if I have no | :27:03. | :27:09. | |
money in my pockets. Back on the Fells, his patience is once more | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
paying off. I've come back here several times now to chase this | :27:17. | :27:19. | |
shot. OK, it's not happened yet. But it looks like it's going to happen. | :27:20. | :27:33. | |
Adios amigos. I'm legging it. Yeah over there. | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
The challenge I'm facing at the moment, it's a beautiful scene, but | :27:38. | :27:44. | |
the wind is horrendous. I might have to move somewhere else. Here we go. | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
This is it. Come on camera. Come on. I'm well | :27:50. | :28:00. | |
happy with that. That were superb. It really was worth the wait. The | :28:01. | :28:05. | |
thing that makes me smile most of all is the people that come back to | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
me and say ` you can really see your love for the area. It shines | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
through. That's where I get a real flutter in my heart and I think, | :28:15. | :28:21. | |
yes! It's paying off. Rather him than me! Well, that's all | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
from us for this week. But don't forget, catch us again on the BBC I | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
player, but we're pack to be iPlayer, but we're back same time | :28:31. | :28:37. | |
Monday, see you then. Next week, the family going under ground to save | :28:38. | :28:40. | |
energy. Behind these gates is one of the most energy`efficient homes in | :28:41. | :28:44. | |
the North West. I'm going to go inside to find out why. | :28:45. | :29:03. | |
Hello, I'm Ellie Crisell with your 90-second update. | :29:04. | :29:08. | |
The PM has backed fracking. He's promised councils incentives if they | :29:09. | :29:11. | |
let companies drill for shale gas. Critics have called the offer a | :29:12. | :29:14. | |
bribe, but the Government claims the process will give us cheaper energy. | :29:15. | :29:17. | |

obesity crisis? The National Obesity Forum says the problem is worse than | :29:44. | :29:47. | |
thought. It wants urgent action to change eating habits and called for | :29:48. | :29:49. | |
