Ben Algar was shooting PD on Plan it, Build it. Plan it, Build it was a ten part daytime series for BBC1 following people applying for planning permission, and the planners who dealt with their applications. We had a very small team and we covered applications handled by five councils around the country. Our two units had to work very hard, be flexible, film a huge amount of high quality material and manage the material to ensure nothing was lost. Ben was an excellent member of our team. He is a great self-shooter, he listens to the brief and tailors his questions and footage to fit the brief, he's thoughtful and considerate with contributors, he acts on his own initiative and he's a pleasure to have around. Ben is fully committed to the projects he works on, he's not a moaner, and he's experienced when it comes to compliance and trust issues. I am a big fan.
