'Mallory' Filmed On North Col...

Mildly diverting stuff from the Altitude Everest Expedition site where there's a short clip of Conrad Anker dressed in 1924 replica clothing on the North Col of Everest.

Anker, complete with period oxygen cylinders, comments that 'it's great fun' and, if we're correct, that Leo - who's playing Sandy Irvine to Anker's Mallory - is 'psyched'.

So it's not the kit that's changed, language has moved on too... Meanwhile the team seems to have spent an extra day at Advanced Base Camp preparing for the summit push.
