Me and My Town was a series done for Regional Television and produced by John Clarke. I was the Production Assistant. We had various Midland people – Hazel O’Connor being one of them – and we visited their town with them and went to their old school and places they used to go to. Sue Pollard was one and we went to her home town of Nottingham. I remember it was freezing cold and we were filming at Nottingham Castle. She was a laugh though and she kept calling me “Lynn Doll”. I remember her mum was wonderful and got out all the old photos of Su when she was a baby. John was brilliant with everyone which was his way and he was a joy to work with. The crew were from Magpie Films as they were in those days.
