A VIDEO PRODUCTION AND HOW IT WAS MADE

A double-bill featuring Terry Mendoza's video Time & Time Again and Graham Gardener's fly-on-the-wall documentary of how it was made, Again and Again.

1. TIME & TIME AGAIN
Terry Mendoza (Essex)
It seems like just another 'bad' Monday morning for Len (David Aldous), a newspaper photographer. His assignment today is to make Liz (Tricia Kent) look like the Mona Lisa, to illustrate an article about a replica of Leonardo da Vinci's time machine. . . Also featuring Roy and Richard Foster. Written by Peter Davison and Terry Mendoza; photography: Simon Frith; lighting: Tony Lench; sound: Paul Mercer.

2. AGAIN AND AGAIN
Graham Gardener (Essex)
A fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the making of Time & Time Again (see above). Terry Mendoza, Peter Davison and many of the technical and artistic team contribute with anecdotes that tell the whole story of how this complicated costume drama was made. Superbly shot and edited, this is compulsive viewing for movie-makers and movie-viewers alike.
