Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it’s a… camper van flying through Shropshire skies
People could be forgiven for doing a double take after spotting this balloon – carrying a Bedford Rascal camper van – in the skies above Shropshire.
Lindstrand Technologies were asked to launch the balloon by Channel 4 for the programme Helluva Tour, to be aired exclusively on its digital platform All 4 this Autumn.
It flew for a couple of hours, closely followed by a helicopter for filming, before landing near Ellesmere.
Helluva Tour, which will consist of 10 five-minute episodes, will follow a cast of four strangers as they take the road trip of a lifetime from London to Australia.
I had to put this on twitter.
