Bread and Butter was hired to organize the filming of the final scene for the DVD. A full scottish pipe band was transported to the top of annoch Mor mountain where they played to the cameras. Sixty people in total squeezed into Nevis Range Gondalas with their instruments and made their way to the top of the mountain. The shoot was planned to co-ordinate with the use of a helicopter kindly hired by Nevis range. This was planned to give us an ariel shot. Unfortunately bad weather caused the helicopter to be canceled and the shoot proceeded with only ground shots.
Bread and Butter made front page of the Oban times being captured in action filming the band at the top of Annoch Mor.
