I really don't know what would convince you, i am not some peasant student. I would sign something if it made you feel a little easier, after all there would be a LOT of work my side, filming, editing, colouring, graphics and for no money. I am offering you the chance to collaborate. I can but offer.

Hi Andy,I would recommend the Skulls thread as previously mentioned.it has everything,mysterious carvings,ghosts,riots,tracing old history of Leeds,the sacred history aroundKirkgate,pub and drunks,soldiers and finally a hidden treasure behind some carvings!

I think this would be a great project. I'd have loved to get involved but time, distance etc. precludes.May I suggest you lot invite Andysan to a convivial evening in the Vic and discuss what might occur? Re the skulls - I agree this would be a brilliant project, loads to go at. And wouldn't it be great to end the film on the most poignant note - where they're stuck now and in my opinion in danger of disappearing forever.

I looked at your website (incidentally, I am also an ex-art director,) and I think you would make an extremely professional job of it. Unfortunately, lack of time and transport would make it difficult for me to take part.

Hi Andy.I've just replied to your e-mail. Depending on what you were thinking of doing, then it's possible I might help out, or if you wanted to collaborate with any of the other S.L guys to feature one of the topics covered on Secret Leeds in the past. I'm far happier being behind the camera, than infront of it. So for that reason, and other implications I wouldn't want to appear on film. I too think the skulls thread would make an interesting story. So I'll wait to see what ideas, or how you want to go about this project before I commit myself. However I do feel the whole Secret Leeds website/content we have here is a great local subject to cover. There are some very knowledgeable people in their subjects, they have contributed some fascinating stories, and facts around Leeds since the website started.

What are friends for? For taking the Mick of course

This is the sort of thing I ad in mind.. It has had over 900 thousand views online, imagine what that could do for the Secret Leeds Group and myself.It adds that element of danger, intrigue and excitement. A kind of fly on the wall but with some history thrown in. Which is why I was thinking of filming in these (out of bounds areas), it generates the publics interests. I am not wanting to do this TV.Have a look, the quality would be the same, as I have the same kit.If we based on Leeds tunnels, sewers, hidden locations but threw in some actual history from one of you guys we would have something v special. In fact even hard to find places that nobody knows about.http://vimeo.com/18280328

Yes, i did mean you needed an outlet and yes I accept that there are many more modern outlets on the owd tinternet. You do seem a tad defensive though fella.The Skulls Head story is a real story the secret tunnels and so on are very hard to get access to and it would take you forever to do a film about a few of them. Also once you know where they are they are not that secret.Not to disparage my home city but the Williamson Tunnels in Liverpool's Edge Hill. Them's tunnels. Proper tunnels and mainly secret too.
