Botanist David Bellamy died on 11th December 2019; he was 86. Malachite made a short film with him for BBC1 in August 1994 on the past, present and future of the Fens. We spent what turned out to be a very long day with him; he arrived at Peterborough station on the first train down from his home in Co. Durham and we put him back on the last train home. For the entire day, he was overflowing with energy and enthusiasm and my crew and I were enchanted!
