UTV Continuity - Behind the scenes video

Just noticed this link to a Google Video on MHP; I thought I would repost here as it might be of interest.

It's a programme about the working life of Julian Simmons, one of UTV's continuity announcers, which seems to have been made by NVTV (an RSL TV station in Belfast). The programme features lots of behind the scenes footage from the UTV presentation studio, etc.

Excellent, thanks! Very informative and answers my previous question perfectly!

Yes indeed... very interesting video that. I was glued to the first part!

Did you come unstuck when Julian went all 'Ab Fab'? There is a bit more interesting stuff towards the end... worth sticking with the full 40 mins!

Nice to see the continuity studio - with Gillian's jacket on a rail at the side It's great to see what it's like for an announcer on shift at UTV, at least we know that if they wanted, the rest of the UTV team could easily do IVC.

Interesting to hear that Julian and his line manager have to clear with GMG North when they want to do in-vision...

Yep...Fantastic!!

Great find, glued to the full 40 mins!

For some reason they were playing it at the gym the other week, it kept my attention whilst I was on the treadmill!

I didn't realise he did the UTV Weather as well, but he gets it written for him

Also he says that everything he says he has written, but he revoices ITV Network trailers word for word doesn't he?

I never realised the continuity studio was bigger, I always thought it was a broom cupboard.

What? Someone has NVTV tuned in at their gym?

LA Fitness in Adelaide Street, Belfast has it tuned in sometimes. I saw this the other morning before work.
