SNOTTON TV - An Alternative Tourist Guide to St Ives
“The Jewel In the Crown Of Cornwall” lurches from the sublime to the ridiculous in this spoof documentary providing fifty one minutes of original comedy adventure in one of Britain’s favourite tourist destinations.

Written , produced and filmed entirely on location in town and described as “The Alternative Tourist Guide to St Ives,” SNOTTON TV takes a tongue in cheek(s) look at the rich diversity of characters and locations to be found in one of Britain's most famous and picturesque seaside resorts.

The film was shown at St Ives Arts Club during the 2007 Festival to a great response. You can buy it online here by clicking on the link below.

The clip here is an extract from the full movie. The running time on DVD is 51 minutes.
