Ok, Firefox and greasemonkey got there in the end!

Yeah I hate using catchup services too - I usually don't bother, but the air date for the show was in a bit of a state of flux so I didn't want to specify a certain date in case that didn't end up happening.

Amazingly, I've just seen their hashtag #kinkybritain trending on facebook, so clearly the show has been more popular than I anticipated!

Ok, so just watched it. What I can take away from that is a permanent image of that woman covering her head in shaving foam!

Seriously, I thought it was good, didn't seem to be taking the piss, just an irreverent take on some niche 'kinks'. Credit to CM for being willing to talk to the camera, I'd have run a mile!

I do wonder if anyone watched last night and discovered their 'thing' for the first time...

Twitter was a good laugh to. I take it from the end of the documentary Restrained Elegance aren't up for anymore Pedal Pumping videos?

[CrankieMonster]

I haven't actually watched the televised cut yet. I'm kind of holding out until I'm really ready because I haven't seen how their anonymisation came out. So far so good that nobody has approached me and quizzed me about the programme! - It is equal parts fascinating, entertaining and terrifying to be reading through social media commentary referring to me without the people posting realising it. Really quite an unusual feeling. I'm kind of gratified in a way though, I've evidently been a contributor to quite a successful show given how much people are talking about it.

Does it still end with a focus on them sticking to their guns with the bondage photoshoots, or was there any further anti-PP sentiment shown? I know the video made #2 but in the pre-release cut I viewed, the clip hadn't actually been put up for sale yet, so they didn't have any means of covering how successful (or otherwise) the video was.

The version of the show I watched was genuinely quite satisfying, ignoring the quirks of watching a documentary in pre-production. I thought the representation of people was pretty fair, and gave less of the 'freak show' vibe that some documentaries that seem to go about nowadays seem to invariably give off, even if they strive to do otherwise. There was nobody there who seemed to be being made fun of, and it was also gratifying to watch the segment of I believe the giantess fan who seemed to take a fairly level-headed approach similar to mine, rather than giving the impression it was dominating his life.

I've yet to speak to Hywel & Joceline since the shoot for fear of interfering with the production process, but will definitely drop them a line wishing them congratulations regarding the programme. I've no great urgency to force them into further PP production, bearing in mind the production company arranged the car for them, but of course, if they're open to it, I'm sure I could provide pointers. As is fairly evident in the programme though, with one or two exceptions most of the other kinks are a lot easier to cater for than ours!

It jumps back to them having just released the video but it was too soon for them to know if it was going to be successful or not, then at the end it said they were going to focus on their core bondage stuff which is fair enough.

As for your appearance, there was the back of your head while filming the video, then a few blurred face shots in a blue interview room kind of thing, I don't think I saw anymore than that.

[CrankieMonster]

Yeah I'm a boring sod so even though the lighting was very dim on me they still agreed to blur it. it's kind of a shame because on the one hand it's something, after all my fears, I'm quite glad to have done and been a part of, but on the other hand, seeing some of the inevitable reactions to it, I think I made the right decision. Having that sort of attention focused on an alias or a fictional name like my forum profile is fine, but in real life, it's not the kind of thing you want to be known for, if you're never going to be known for anything else. A little frustrating perhaps, as I think I'd be dead chuffed getting in excess of a minute of screen time on national TV were it for any other subject, but it's only through the uniqueness of PP that such an opportunity arose, so I think my attitude is 'so be it'.

Lovely, life-affirming stuff on Ch4's #kinkybritain. Good to see media that doesn't shame people for their sexual orientations/preferences.
