 I was recently asked to film a episode of Auction Party with Lawrence Llewellyn-Bowen at Liverpool Town Hall.
I wasn't too sure at first, but they said the fee was £150, and that convinced me so off I toddled on a cold winter night the whole 100 yds stretch from my shop to the beautiful Liverpool Town Hall. It was great fun the programme is all about raising money for charity and I struck up a relationship with St Johns Hospice afterwards and sell some of their donated objects for them.  It went out 25th July 2011.

Liverpool Town Hall should look great and although I have not watched it myself yet have been informed that it does the city proud. 

 

I was recently asked to take part in an ITV programme called Auction Party hosted by Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen. This should go out in June.

It was all good fun and its nice to help raise money for charity, especially St Johns Hospice.  

The filming was done at the sumptous Liverpool Town Hall chandeliers and all.

 Beyond Westminster - The Perils of Planning
John Kampfner examines what the coalition's new proposals for planning decisions mean for 'localism'.

Saturday 30th April 2011
This week's Beyond Westminster looks at one of the most controversial elements of local politics: planning. Planning decisions for new developments are usually fraught and most people agree there needs to be change.

In the latest budget, the Chancellor, George Osborne announced he wants to see a 'presumption in favour of a yes to sustainable development in future planning decisions'. At the same time, the government has introduced a localism bill which will empower local communities to have more say in planning decisions. Can the two approaches work together?

John Kampfner visit the Copmanthorpe Wind Action Group, battling against wind turbines and Paul Vickers reports from Merseyside where a controversial new development, the Mann Island project has polarised opinion.

Producer: Paul Vickers.

I was asked for an opinion as a resident of Liverpool
Its worth a listen http://www.bbc.co.uk/i/b010r7by/ on the BBC i-player.

 Mann Island is about 12 minutes into the intelligent programme about planning and the new localism bill.

I was asked to do some room sets by the BBC and this is the Artemis House in the series. I originaly had a brilliant mirror for the fireplace but it picked up a reflect.

This was a house in Falkner Square in Liverpool 8.
