For the Saturday night performance from Marillion Weekend 2005, the band decided to choose their favourite "up-tempo" songs to create a high-energy party vibe for the night. Slower more atmospheric songs were then selected to end the Weekend on the Sunday night, creating a completely different show and feel. Mixed by Dave Meegan and available on audio downloads as Smoke and Mirrors, the 2 live shows included on Bootleg Butlins were filmed using only 3 cameras. This DVD gives you the feel of being not just AT but IN the show - a true memento of the Marillion Weekend 2005.

Documentary about Butlins

Timmy Lea and his brother-in-law Sidney Noggett are working as entertainment officers at Funfrall, a typical British holiday camp. The staff are lazy and inefficient, preferring to laze by the pool rather than organise activities for the holiday campers. A new owner, Mr. Whitemonk, an ex-prison officer, takes over the camp and is determined to install discipline into the staff. He is on the verge of dismissing Timmy and Sidney; however, Sidney's suggestion of organising a beauty contest changes his mind.

70s Butlins documentary, part of a series of films directed by Tony Palmer, which was announced in The Stage [The Stage, 25 July 1974, p.14] "Tony Palmer is directing a new series with Harriet Crawley which will be seen in the HTV area. Tentatively titled Harriet, it will feature Miss Crawley in a number of roles each of which, as it were, puts her on the spot. For example, she will go up (and down) with a group of sky divers, work with an elephant trainer in a circus, become an operatic soprano (she will actually sing in a performance of Carmen), and for a time be a hell's angel's moll. Patrick Dromgoole is the executive producer of this one."
