Some great pics in that lot there. I did some stuff with the Emmerdale crowd a few years ago. All on film th0. Maybe have to scan some and post.

Well done on a good set

Number 9 is a cracker. Love the mascot being in the wall and the expressions on the players faces, especially the wee lad at the back looking like he'd rather be anywhere else but there hehe.

Brilliant shots, is that a professional in number 7 wearing gloves? Even the little kid wasn't wearing gloves
