Final Recording of 2012

Last night a select crack team of professional mercenaries gathered in a secret location (no, not Brighton actually!) and recorded the Series One Christmas Special of 4amcab.  When I say crack team, what I really mean is the usual bunch of scallywags that heard there’d be mince pies and a bottle of Cava, and as such they couldn’t resist.

I want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of the team that has worked on the project, from the actors to the writers and all the way up to the tea boy (there is no tea boy, must get one for Series Two).  I won’t list them by name here, that’s what the credits tab at the top of this page is for, but without them the show would have been very different and perhaps wouldn’t have even happened at all.  They were all brilliant and it’s been great working with them on what has turned out to be a very special project.  The one person I will mention by name is the tea girl, otherwise know as Rachel Wheeley.  She’s the tea girl in that she’s had a mug of tea grafted to her hand just so she has a drinking vessel available at every moment in the production.  Rachel is my co-creator and although I do the recording and mixing of the thing you actually hear, without her I wouldn’t have even got off the ground with the project – she was the one who first uttered the words “4amcab”.  Just when I feel like I can’t face another blinking cursor, she’ll send me a text/email which keeps me going.  This is a collaborative production and without Rachel’s incredible motivational powers it would have probably stayed in my head and not reached your ears.  Cheers Rach!

So, now I have the massive task of trying to get this final show of 2012 in the can before the season of joy has passed, let’s hope it don’t end in tears.  I’m expecting a text from Rachel kicking my butt any second…
