A month ago we went along to the filming of the 2nd series of Top Gear Australia as the 1st series was a laugh to go to. It turned out to be the final episode of the series so there were some reasonably good stuff featured in the episode. This time the group was Sanna and I and friend Cameron from work.
There’s Sanna on the left right at the front the sneaky bugger
Cameron is blessed with height so he was on screen for most of the audience shots with his head poking out of the crowd for most of the episode. During the star in a reasonably priced car interview piece, the director asked Sanna to come to the front as they were setting up shot and someone said ‘it’s always the pretty ones’ :) I was sent to the back being too short and too ugly for national TV and went to the back of the studio to watch the live camera feeds on the directors monitor.
Camerons head poking out and smiling
all the time from 3 rows back
Gyton Grantley from the Aussie hit drama series underbelly was the star in the reasonability priced car and he came out at the very top of the celebrity lap times board. Queue Sanna’s spontaneous look of amazement just as Warren the presenter announced the lap time :) I was at the back of the studio have having a good giggle watching her on the monitor.
Queue! spontaneous look of amazement
And here is the YouTube clip!
Hello,
We're sorry we couldn't get you on screen.
This is due to your MASSIVE chin.
