In a bold move the BBC has used primates to shoot an upcoming documentary
Unknown at this point whether the CBC will look at this option to increase efficiencies. Reporters may like the idea as the Cameramonkey dresses better and has superior hygenie habits to the current crop of CBC camera people.
According to Sir Philo Farnsworth of the BBC Primate Unit “We’re chuffed with the results and cost savings. These chaps will work for bananas.”
Chimpanzee’s were the first group trianed and the BBC is planning to add Orangutans to the herd as soon as the training is complete.
Red the Orangutan practices camera techniques thirty miles from Reading.

On second thought…
What a waste of taxpayers monkey.
They will go back to using real ENG tech as there are some things
primates just won’t do.
