The Production GuideScript To Screen: A Matter Of Balance
by Martin Willey
The Production Guide
Delays began to accumulate on both A Matter Of Balance and Space Warp. On 16th August, a new shooting schedule was published, extending the ten day shoot to twelve days (it eventually took 13). As can be seen on the notes for this schedule, with actors committed to two episodes, scheduling their availability was a big problem. The schedule shows that the early scene when Helena comforts Shermeen in her quarters could have been lost if Barbara Bain was not available.
