My partner Diane took them Alex, She was standing just around to your left. She's not in the video but she is midway through pregnancy and was wearing a dayglow orange bodywarmer. 
Do due to her fabulous taste I'm surprised you missed her. 
Great video's Alex, Well done! 
P.s That woman don't half go one does she..............

I will need to have a look at all the photos taken on the day to see if I have one of her.
I also had a colleague taking photos at the event so I will have a look at these photos as well. I am sure I will find one
It was a bit drawn out but I think it worked well over two videos. One of the official film crew kept standing in front of me. Either he was jealous that I managed too choose a better location than him ore he was just a prat. I think the latter but you never know
