DERKA DERKA! Scapey's TV-shoot diary... Pt. 1

Finally, I can post this. Been waiting ages, to see if we would be asked to sign any kind of N.D.A. before we got paid for it.
We didn't, so...

A few months back I got a message from a mate of mine, who also runs an airsoft/paintball site.
He'd been approached by a TV production company who were looking for locations, equipment and extras for a new "reality TV" show in which 6 celebrities would be trained in various combat techniques by some ex-military types.

Originally, it was to be shot between my FireFight site and one of Dave's sites.
This all fell through after they found an empty boarding school up by Loch Rannoch.
Dave was still asked to provide gear and extras though.

And so it was that a bunch of us weekend-warriors struck out for the middle of nowhere, armed only with some Dr Pepper and what the RAC website laughably calls "Directions"...
