A Talk By Alex Leger

A room full with3 Million Flies, a hail of stones from and angry crowd in the Cameroons and overwhelming hospitality at the Mount Washington Cog Railway the nearly scuppered the shoot were unexpected hazards. Fliming with the war-like Kayapo Indians in the Amazon Rainforest, climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and celebration 10 years after the Falklands conflict in remote island communities all added to the rich pageant of life in the BBC. The talk ends with a “top gun” moment and a visit to HMS Illustrious to participate in flight deck operations with Harrier jump-jet.
