The pharmacist telephoned the surgery to speak to the doctor. Unfortunately there was no answer, but she suggested that I go there anyway. I suppose obsession is one way of describing it. But the way I see it, this is such a small country we're living in and we now understand just about every inch of it. Well, this is something we don't have an explanation for. It's inevitable that we have to admit there's something unexplained in Loch Ness. I have to accept that the first thing I film probably isn't going to be the final piece of evidence. I'll carry on until the mystery is solved - until we've got to the bottom of it." Maybe, though, it's more love affair than obsession - one that began when a seven-year-old boy arrived in Loch Ness on a family holiday in 1970. He went to the local exhibition with his father, who bought him a Nessie portfolio as a souvenir. That was all it took. We’ve communicated science in a way which has been more compelling than perhaps most of the science I’ve been involved in in my prior career,” Gemmell said. “More people now know about environmental DNA than ever before, I would imagine, and I think that’s a good thing. Because we need these tools to be able to document what is living in places as, slowly but surely, our world becomes less special.” Peoples opinions began to change and credibility of the possible existence of the monster grew as the Daily Mirror printed a story on the film on 13th June 1960.

Here we go… Not an argument at all. Just a dogmatic but subjective statement that the commenter thinks the photo is a hoax. Big deal, I thnk we knew that. Second point rejected. A Review of Robert L. France’s Disentangled: Ethnozoology and Environmental Explanation of the Gloucester Sea Serpent Somebody said to me I bet you've seen this monster, but you're not saying anything because it doesn't look anything like your models!" The commenter starts with a "its not relevant" point. Well, not really since sceptical books refers to it as an argument against the photo. First point rejected.

Heuvelmans, B., 1975. Dans le sillage des monsters marins- Le kraken et le Poulpe Colossal, 2nd edn. Paris: Francois Beauval. That particular information is embedded within a general diatribe of the monster which is somewhat arrogant and dismissive in its delivery.

After talking to Adrian Shine, leader of the Loch Ness Project, he offered to lend me a Seagull 5hp engine and his help in re-creating the film.A 14 foot wooden boat was hired and we met at temple pier on the 25 May 1998. He settled at Foyers for two years, spending 20,000 hours tirelessly reporting minor sightings but producing no evidence.
