Stoke Canon flooding ITN News

It was the day before Christmas (yeah the 24th December 2012) and I would say all was quite…. but it wasn’t….
Time for me to get into the van and film some news, this time I was off to Taunton to film some travel chaos!

Then back down to Stoke Cannon collecting shoot as I travelled where I uploaded the rushes to the news room via the sat truck.

Train services throughout the region had been severely disrupted with services between Plymouth, Exeter St Davids and Taunton suspended.

Network Rail said one of two plastic dams set up to protect the railway line at Exeter to minimise flood damage is itself now under water.
