Christine Walkden came here today with a BBC Countryfile crew to shoot some
footage for a new series to start showing in August. She's been here before
and Ray met her but I have never done so before. She's a thoroughly nice,
down to earth, enthusiastic, woman and it was a delight not to see any
diva-ish behaviour! When they were discussing possible locations and
setting up for shots, Christine was either happily talking plants to Ray or
wandering around looking at them on her own. And one thing impressed me
very much - as the crew was packing up and leaving, she came to the door and
asked someone to find me so that she could say goodbye and thank you
personally. An awful lots of people, let alone well known ones, don't
bother with small courtesies like that and attention to them reveals a lot
about a person, IME and IMO.
