Sorry I have seen him before and to be honest I cannot stand him and the way he puts his point over. perhaps it is the tone of his voice but it is not for me.

No need to be sorry John, everybody has an opinion and the right to dislike someone. I can't stand Jeremy Clarkson but I don't feel I need to apoligise for that

I managed nearly 6 minutes but my patience eventually gave out. Like a lot of videos he seemed to take a minute to say what was maybe 10 seconds worth of content.

I had difficulty working out what he was saying about the unpredictability of film. I have no idea as to how reliable his film( which film?) or cameras were.

Anything that involves unreliable tools and materials will have unpredictable outcomes. Film photography isn't unique in this.

My views may be a generational thing. Even senior hospital consultants look a bit young to me, these days

Mike
