Great new local video : Lightsabers Over Matlock, dispute over results of a pickled onion eating competition.

Here is a wickedly funny new video from a local video producer.
You may remeber the trailer teasers back in July and then December well hes finally finished the film.
Must have taken so many hours to create this masterpiece. The footage was shot on two seperate days - one in March and one in November hense the dramatically different weather conditions that are especially evident in the high tor stuff at the end!

The film features a Lightsaber fight around Matlock.
A disagreement about a pickled onion eating competition results in furious lightsaber duels all across Matlock, Derbyshire

Enjoy his new video here :




I liked the fight scene in Matlock park best, with the train and boats. Very silly.
Were you one of the many people that saw this being flimed last year?
That bit in the middle of the crown round-a-bout !

Even if you don't find the film funny I'm sure you will enjoy the many local Derbyshire views such as High Tor.

I hope you enjoy this video.
