Australia calling... again.

Last week I went down to Brighton for the day to produce a load of clips with a couple of guys who are putting together a new website. This shot is from the end of a office scene, in which the young secretary is birched for overuse of her work phone for personal calls. To Australia. Sound familiar at all? Look, there's even a phone on the edge of shot, just to make the point. Sure enough, I was duly instructed to "call" my "friend" during the birching so they could "listen" to me being punished. It was entertaining once, but if I have to do it again any time soon I could rapidly get very bored with this particular fantasy.

As it happens, I do have a penchant for long phone chats. But I don't have a friend in Australia.
