I remember that night well. I did my best to actively avoid the camera at all times. It was a fun event, and we all hurried off to the bar in the hotel afterwards, as the ITV News team had about an hour to send the video, edit it and get it ready for the end of the 10pm news bulletin. I remember we shot into the bar, and they had the big TV showing foootball, and we begged the person behind the bar to change it to the news channel. And then a big group of us sat down and watched it. We all cheered.
My parents were not there but I had called them and they recorded the clip. I believe they still have it on their DVD recorder. I know it was there last year when I was around and my Mother was trying to show me something she recorded.
