"In one legendary week on Ben Nevis in 1960 Jimmy Marshall and Robin Smith advanced Scottish winter climbing a full ten years. On consecutive days they climbed six first winter ascents, including the mini Alpine-route Orion Face Direct (V, 5), while also making the second ascent of Point Five Gully (V, 5) for good measure. The fact they achieved all this by cutting steps up the snow and ice appears, from the remove of the 21st century, to be almost unbelievable. Marshall's skill was such that he could lead routes almost faster than some of his talented seconds could follow."
'Who's who in British Climbing' , Colin Wells

Exactly 50 years on we set out to film Dave MacLeod and Andy Turner repeat all the routes that Smith and Marshall climbed in that one week. We got some great footages which will be cut with some classic and rare interviews.

Due for release autumn 2010.
