When the call came in for this job the production desk at the BBC asked if we had any problems filming snakes!!! We were despatched to the Malvern Hills to film a story about the UKs only venomous snake, the adder. BBC reporter Louise Hubball interviewed local snake expert Nigel Hand about what to do when walking in the countryside.
The footage was then edited on location in our production vehicle and the high definition master file uploaded directly onto the BBC server in Salford. The package was played out as part of a live broadcast, BBC One 30 May 2012.
