Random connection of the week: 
There was a Hoover randomly stood in our hallway the other night. It reminded me of a story that Deborah Melsom told to me, when we were both in the art department on Pie in the Sky III.
Deborah lived in a block of flats, and 'Bros' (80's trio - as pictured above...lol) also lived there too. Deborah said she had to fight her way through screaming fans to get to her car each morning. She told me of the morning that she was taking her Hoover to the repair shop, and during the chaos of getting through screaming teenage girls, promptly forgot to put the Hoover in her car, and left it stood on the pavement. When she called the security guard on the gate, to check if her Hoover was there, and he confirmed that, yes it was, indeed, still there, she asked him if he'd mistaken it for a Bros fan...hahaha.
So remembering her story, I looked her up on IMDb; and in this process found Julian Parry; who was the Art Director on Pie in the Sky III. He's now in VFX and was responsible for theVfx content Vikings – including vfx bid breakdowns, ‘on-set’ supervision – Vfx direction & addition 2nd unit director.
I got in touch and we are now connected again!
And all because of a Hoover.
(love how the Hoover image, is a silver and red 'V' shape, as per the Vikings image too)
