RIO! The Scribbler finally speaks! Be sure to watch C4, this Sunday at 8.25am!












Today the Scribbler finally speaks... about BRAZIL! And to kick it off, here's a pic of some deaf kids at Ines Deaf Insititute in Rio!












And this, believe it or not, was the view from our apartment! You can just see the statue of Jesus poking through the clouds if you look carefully enough!

All you seasoned blog-fans will remember a time of extreme Scribbler quietness. Silence, even. This is because I was in Rio De Janeiro, probably watching the Rolling Stones on Cocacabana beach at the time (I kid you not!)













These kid dancers were better than the adults..!













Here's the Sugar Loaf... and below, the first day of filming...












I still (!) can't say too much about the documentary except that it's great - because I worked on it of course (!) - and if you're not watching Channel 4 at 8.25am this Sunday - or videoing it if you're still in bed - the Scribbler will be a very dissapointed blogger indeed!

For two weeks we toiled in the extreme Brazilian sunshine, carrying cameras, tripods, tapes, water, suncream, release forms, money (too much of it!) and a million other things. I stood behind the camera (with about 5 other people!), while Nana Twum-Danso danced in front of it!












So who's Nana? She's a deaf dancer, and she had a week to learn to samba dance. Did she manage it? Well, you'll have to watch the show to find that one out for yourself!

One thing I can tell you is that Brazil gave the Scribbler not only some memorable experiences (and the chance to perspire constantly for 2 weeks!) and a great chance to unleash his camera! So expect to see more than just a few snaps released onto the blog in the next few weeks!













To see more, tune in on Sunday. Aside from that, don't forget to have an amazing weekend!
