''The first time I worked with Eamonn McKenna was on ‘The Northman’ where Eamonn was the Health and Safety officer. He ran his department and all things H+S on the film with a very pleasant and efficient manner. His experience of dealing with challenging situations from his 29 years as a fire officer made him the perfect choice to take on the role of Covid Supervisor on the film.

It was a steep learning curve for all as we were one of the first films to restart production after LOCK DOWN. Eamonn took on the challenge with a calm confident and intelligent approach. He and his team wrote the rule book for the protocols that we followed to complete a successful production.''
