Some of those shots were impressive- I'm guessing they must have used drones(?)

Yeah, you can't fit a helicopter in Vivian.

Yes, it was Last Tango. The difficult bit is both the start, a little bold, and moving up to the O/H as your L foot is smearing on the slab and R is in the crack. I remember that the top bit is also runout but that was over 30 yrs back so probably better placements today. Awesome exposure and that certainly won't have changed! If it wasn't overshadowed by Devish, it would get a lot more ascents. Photo here

It starts about 21 minutes in. Worth a watch. Good shots and it's nice to see Lucy Creamer on the TV.

Indeed. I remembered the top runout from 20 years ago; when I did it last year I got two small wires and two microcams above the overlap, all of which seemed fine.

(Still bottled out of the start of the Dervish though)
