Who is Poo Girl?

/ Comments: (0) /


Many may have heard the rumours or read them on the internet. Are you still unsure about who Poo Girl is?

Well look no further your question will be answered here. Poo Girl was an unfortunate girl who dropped her handbag into the toilet at Leeds Festival 2009.

Next...and probably quite unexpectedly, she decided to go head first into the toilet and fish it out!

Of course this ended quite badly and the girl managed to get wedged head first down the toilet.

It eventually took 30mins to get her out, with fire-fighters being called to the scene.

From that moment she became known as poo girl!

Shoot The Summer - The First Festival Movie!

/ Comments: (0) /


"Shoot The Summer" is a film about festivals shot entirely on mobile phones. Throughout the summer of 2008, the "Shoot The Summer" team filmed at 7 different festivals and gave out phones to audience members and bands with one instruction, "film whatever you want".

Radio 1 producer Hugh Garry went around many British events handing out the mobiles to crowd members and bands. Funnily enough every single one that was handed out was also returned packed full of footage.

Garry said, "Giving the audience and artists the brief to 'film whatever you want' was risky but I think it paid off. At the start we were concerned that we'd get nothing but clips of bored bands on tour buses and wasted kids in tents, but Shoot the Summer is anything but."
