An amusing little story here, with quotes from one Lindsay Honey, a cameraman apparently...

Any comments from Mr Dover?
I thought at least some of the movies mentioned are Frank Thring productions?

Guardian reader? .Yes,Ben we all know (well some of us do) that you made earlier Private films but did you make these as well ?

Is this becoming the new Ben Dover forum? I dont mind if it is

When the News of the World were reporting this, they were sensationalising it (no, really?!) in a way that was suggesting all this was outrageous and shocking. And yet they have been running Private Video adverts in the back of the paper for several weeks now. That week, they didn't...but with a double page spread doubling as an advert, why bother?

That's newspapers for you!! I like the comment that I'm "apparantly" a cameraman!! Frank Thring and I go back years to the Videx days.

Ben

Now I know what they do, I also want to be a "cameraman" when I'm older.

Aha!
Sorry Ben, I was merely commenting on the fact that the report was quite modest about giving you your due title of "director" or indeed "auteur!"
So you did the camerawork on those titles - given the bizarre angles Frank insists on, maybe that explains your bad back that I read you complaining about a while ago. OR maybe that's to do with something else...
