Description

Bob Warman piece to camera about the stunt which is part of an ATV Today campaign to find good news amongst the bad news of rising unemployment and the falling pound. He gets hold of the bottle of Champagne from a woman who was delivering it to a hotel in the city. Taking the cork out is a slow process and Bob eventually has to use a corkscrew. He pours glasses and then hands them out in the city with vox pops about the champagne and current gloom over the rest of the country.
