Peck till we can't Peck'em no more.

Unfortunately Emma wasn't able to join Bhav today for what is hopefully our final session of filming in Peckham.
I feel that it may have made a difference if she was there- people seem to open up easily when she is around. However, I think that the combination of the cold rain and the fact that we've been sticking cameras in their faces for weeks now had the guys at Nimba shipping in a pretty grumpy mood. Nobody wanted to talk to us, and we waited around for about 2 hours before we were (reluctantly) given our promised interview with a main component of the business.

Although it was a lot like pulling teeth, I think that we got him to reiterate most of the things that were not clear on our audio recordings before, and it should fill in the little gaps that we need. Plus, Bhav has confirmed that the audio sounds great that we picked up on the Nikon SLR (which we were slightly nervous about).

All in all, not an unsuccessful day, but certainly could have left on a more chipper note. We promised that the next time we saw them, we would be handing them a finished DVD of the film. At least they seemed pleased with that.
