Stools everywhere! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

So many stools (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

Of course they picked a slightly wonky one for a big close up! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

There they are again! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

Few, a good one gets a close up this time! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

This must have been one of the "soft" rubber stools. SFX did such a great job, even in a freeze frame you can't tell the difference (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

Thank god I screwed the tops on properly! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)


For a bit of variety, I did a bench too!

Upholstered bench - you can see the original fabric it arrived with on the bench behind

Here you can just about make out the velvet curtains as the car drives through the wall. Oh, and look! More stools! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

Some of the signs and posters I made for the school in the 90s flashback scenes. Easter Eggs galore in these!

Some of the work I made for classroom displays. The trick with these is coming up with a variety of different styles, hand writing and ability-levels, so it doesn't all look like it was done by the same person.

One of the key graphic props I made fro the school was this display to appear behind young Gary as a teacher asks him what he's going to do with his life. This was my mock-up.

This was my original design, but it was felt something simpler would be better

The finished display as it appears in the scene

Loads of my stuff pops up in this little shot! Major Easter Eggs here for The Winter's Tale, The Beehive, "Don't want school to end?"

I made this 'Relax and Enjoy' poster for The Mermaid pub, which I was really pleased with, but now I can't any pictures of it besides this wahhhhhh! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

And this one is even worse! Wahhhhh! (copyright Working Title/Big Talk Pictures)

Mobiles made with decorative junk for the post-apocalyptic prologue

We had loads of fun in the prop store just smashing, burning, generally destroying things for these scenes

You can't see them very well, but I strung together hundreds of mobile phones to hang from these trees
