Ah, Reggie Perrin. Those were the golden days of British Comedy. Tommy Saxondale has huge potential though. (Sorry to sideline the thread by the way).
On a more serious note, I can relate to what Mark says, but of course you still have to count all that flashy stuff we have to buy before we shoot anything.

That's why I started building camera cranes and grip equipment out of matchsticks, string and elastoplast.
