I agree too.

I would like to see in the video player either highlights of the whole  
camp from beginning to end or one of Tuesday's actions. I think that  
either of those would have most appeal both to campers and the wider  
audience.

To answer Hamish, i think CCTV has been amazing, as indeed has the  
website. And I'm really excited about what we can do for the swoop.
