It is important to schedule the day of the shoot, to try and keep things going at the right pace and to make sure that everything is fitted into the day. We have to shoot the whole thing in one day otherwise we'd have to wait ages for another filming date, the Christmas Tree wont be up in Trafalgar Square, and the weather may change. We also have to film it all before around 3:30 so that we don't lose too much light. Unfortunately we can only really get to London at about 10:10 as train tickets are very expensive on weekdays and we can't ask our cast and crew to pay £18 a ticket! We have arranged to meet round my house (also known as Enigma Studios) which is very close to the station, so that we can rehearse things before leaving, making the day go faster. So this schedule fits around all the little issues and leaves some extra time because we will inevitably overrun and finish about an hour after our schedule. At least we know we should be hurrying up if we're behind the schedule.
