Great to be working with filmmaker Gavin Repton again. We had such fun making this. Due to time constraints, and for the rhythm and pace of the film - we had to loose a few lines. Here are the missing verses: Would it roll on the belly of Bolehill that spring where we escaped to on Carnival Day. You said: 'Bare feet let Mother Nature in' and between the gorse in bloom and the hawthorn, too we lay enthralled with each other and never noticed it ring. The sounding of the hours have passed unknown: Carnival Days, the may in bloom... Yet I still hear you whisper up on Bolehill your lips all sticky with the cider we stole
Great cinematography - I really like the rapid variation of different moods to match the variation in the poem. I think it captures wonderfully the way that a place (especially one such as St Mary's and Wirksworth) can have all manner of associations and meanings, mixed up all at once, or one after another. Great work by all involved.

This film expresses very profoundly what bell ringing is about. Thank you.
Watching this again and it gets better. A very compelling way to find out about the church tower.
