Wake up and watch favourite film, The Blair Witch project. Just love the way everybody bobs around and you have to guess what's going on.

Off to SCD studio. Meeting with director of SCD after unpleasant comments last week about camera work. Has no bloody idea about artistic use of camera. Doesn't know viewers much prefer not to see the dancers' feet in the quickstep, gives them an opportunity to contribute artistically by having to guess what's going on.

Phone call from marketing director of Sealegs thanking self for increase in sales as everybody feels seasick on Saturday Night. Glad to be of help to national economy.

Re-arrange chairs round dance floor so heads of audience will be obscuring views of dancers' feet. Make sure plenty of cables are lying around so will have lots of opportunities to trip up thus adding artistic tension to camera work.

Put on rollar skates so can practise spinning round at high speed. Must remember not to eat until after show.

Nice footwork there. Must make sure don't show it. Thank goodness for the audience's heads.

Put camera in pocket and go home. Hope BBC never tries to introduce cameras on tripods as will spoil lovely artistic shaking and bobbing.

Up the stairs to Bedfordshire to deam of Emmys and Oscars. Make mental note to phone director of Brokeback Mountain tomorrow as bound to want national television cameraman with such artistic talent on next movie.

I thought this was so funny
