Thought your voices were always disguised after 10 minutes in the pub ChrisGood call for the skulls - at the very least gets it recorded for posterity

The skulls would be a really interesting thing to include in our doc, would you really be willing/able to be filmed? I'm sure we could stretch our loans to afford pints for willing participants. Not that I'm bribing anybody, of course.

In that case I'll be a back ground extra: "Man in Pub"

We aren't allowed to film in pubs as far as I'm aware - every one we've been to has declined us on accounts of "unpermissable advertising" or something similar. We tried filming the Angel because of its "oldest pub in Leeds" status, but the guys behind the bar were having none of it....Sorry about that "man in pub"

Don't mention about the Angel being the oldest pub, they may have a strong opinion to express.
