‘The Clothes Show’ was produced at Pebble Mill from 1986-2000, it was originally a spin off of fashion items from ‘Pebble Mill at One’. The executive producer was Roger Casstles. The fashion magazine show had very high production values, and became well known for its use of new video editing effects. Eventually the post production team were awarded a BAFTA for their work.
The first photo shows the production office at ‘Clothes Show Live’, the annual exhibition at the NEC which is still running. Shown in the photo are Nicky Barfoot in the stripy top, Caroline Hawkins, Tim Langford, and presenter Caryn Franklin seated.
The lower photo is of a location shoot at the Imperial War Museum, and shows director Clive Wagner.
Yes – Clive was pretty good . If the edit suite’s vision mixer failed he’d just build you another . Multi-talented or what ? ( he was quite good at directing also )
