It was a thrilling day of tent erecting in Elstree today.  The OTM crew got to visit the famous studio’s and the sound stage that was home to the Star Wars films.  Elstree is also home to the “Big Brother” house and “Who Want’s To Be A Millionaire”.

We were on site to erect a military marquee for a forthcoming supermarket commercial.  We had to adapt to working with a hard surface and we utilised 2500ltrs of water, giving us 2.5tons of anchorage in the absence of ground stakes. The crew had a fun time and enjoyed being part of the creative scene at a famous studio.
