CHARACTERS IN SEARCH OF A PLOT

SOME PEOPLE AND ACTIVITIES WHICH CAUGHT M ATTENTION...but not in any particular order.
gabby logan..
working for bbc radio did a splendid outside broadcast from DF.she was very friendly and put people at ease.
vanessa redgrave...
put her head above the parapet by visiting the residents to encourage them as well as supporting them and got sniped at by the popular press.
"Ellie"
A protester featured on the bbc london news who conducted an interview by cell phone with a reporter on the ground whilst the whole area was in turmoil caused by 300plus riot police.
Supt.Trevor Roe
the official spokesperson during the eviction
Trevor did a sterling job warding off scores of questions from dozens of reporters and giving nothing away a bit like the last batsman in for England stonewalling for Queen and country.It might not be pretty but it was immensely impressive as far as rearguard actions go and he even diverted talk about the use of Tazers which technically are not supposed to be used in pubic order operations.
 JULIAN STURDY
THIS REPORTER GAVE WITNESS TO THE INVASION OF 300 PLUS RIOT POLICE.HE USUALLY WORKS FOR LOOK EAST BUT WAS FEATURED ALSO IN BBC LONDON COVERAGE.HE TOLD OF THE LONG PERIOD WHICH FOLLOWED WITH NO SIGN OF THE BAILIFFS.
LEN GRIDLEY
ONE COULD WRITE A BOOK ABOUT "our Len" as the local journos call him because he is never out of the limelight he is a fantasist of the serial kind,a self publicist always coming up with some scheme or other
and threatening to take his concerns to the doors of the Prime Minister,he wanted to sue Tony Ball for not removing the travellers and again for not clearing up the mess left by the Council contractors and he was once taken away from Dale Farm after trying to start a fire whilst brandishing a firearm.He left in a police car and later police said that they were reviewing his firearms license (?) I expect to hear more because the media treat him as a witness of note simply because he lives next door.
RAY BOCKING
The former owner of the six acre site who ten years ago sold his land as a brownfield site to a group of Travellers  because nobody else was willing to acquire land that might be contaminated from more than 14 years of industrial use....see Essex Chronicle 8Sept 2011 Why I sold the land to the Travellers.also Basildon Recorder 20/5/2008.
He also visited the residents and told them the Council were not telling the truth about the 6 acre site being greenfield.
NICOLA WATSON
Is a photographer working for the Brentwood Gazette  whose pictures tell the truth about life inside Camp Constant,31August,2011. and make nonsense of the story put out by the police a few days later that the camp had been taken over by thousands of anarchists.
ELLEN YIANNI
the activist who blew the police case out of the water with her own video evidence. 
JONATHON OPPENHEIM
The celebrated Cambridge scientist stayed in the background but assisted the Travellers in their many encounters in the Law Courts because he considered them as neighbours.
There should be others and we might mention them later.
