Former TV Weatherman, Fred Talbot is seen here arriving / leaving Manchester Magistrates Court on the 11.02.2014.

TV Weatherman Fred Talbot has been charged with 9 counts of indecent assault and one count of sexual assault.

On this day of attendance Fred Talbot spoke only to confirm his name, address and date of birth. He will now have a preliminary hearing on the 4th March 2014.

Also on this day I was aggressively pushed by the staff photographer Andy Stenning of the Daily Mirror as you can see for your-self in the video at 42 seconds.

The still shot you see below was taken by my-self of the staff photographer Andy Stenning of the Daily Mirror, this still shot that you do see was taken at the Kevin Webster Trial outside Manchester Crown Court which was a prior event to this Fred Talbot assignment.  My message to Andy Stenning of the Daily Mirror is simple you play dirty, then I'll just expose your dirty tactics to the public.

Late Entry:  GRP TV would publicly like to thank APTV and Media for kindly given us permission to use their video footage which shows the above Staff Photographer of the Daily Mail assaulting Cameraman Gareth Preston.  Below is the actual video that does catch the assault carried out by Andy Stenning on Gareth Preston

Sony DSR 500 WSP

Here at GRP TV then I've only just got my hands on the Sony DSR 500 WSP DVCAM Camcorder.  So I just thought that I'd share this with you all via a self portrait of me and the actual camera it's self  :)

It boosts many of the pro specs that you would expect to find on a Broadcasting Camera, it has multiple video / monitor out ports for live feeds, which is something that I'm going to be experimenting with very soon via Audio / Video Senders.  

When I first got the DSR 500 then I was very much unsure of what all the buttons does do ?  But just after a few weeks of play then I now really do understand all the buttons that it is that is scattered around all over the entire body of the actual camera.

The tally function is something which I really do love the most, because when you press record then the tally light will start to flash / blink unto the tape is ready to start to record, after it's finished spooling  the tape then the tally light will stay on full time with out blinking.  This is great because I can now say to people ok only start to speak when you see the red light stop blinking. This is because I was sick to death of trying to explain to people why there is a small delay from when I press the record button to the point where it is that they can actually start to speak.  Again this is now all over as I can simply just say to people only start to speak when you see the red light stop blinking :) 

Over all I'm over the moon with my latest investment in the Sony DSR 500 WSP DVCAM Camcorder.
