    Nice film, but what a shame about that damn drain cock blow.

    The going away sequence would otherwise make a lovely film ending shot. Heading into the distance, nice clag, sheep noise, just roll the titles!

    It looked suspiciously like it to me. The difference these days, for us stills guys at least, is that a couple of minutes work in Photoshop will eliminate the problem!
