More interestingly, the band filmed the three Rotterdam concerts with a professional crew, especially the one on 3 September, with a view to incorporating the footage into the film « Pulse », or possibly doing some location scouting to determine the shooting synopsis for the Earl's Court recording the following month. A trailer using these previously unseen images has been edited and circulated among the group's marketing team.

Bobby Hassall :

« The reason that Pink Floyd was to play 3 gigs here in Rotterdam was that they had decided to use this venue for filming the division bell dvd. It must have been a nice break for both band and crew to be able to settle in one place for a few days »

John Edgerton (Documentary’s director):

«When I was making the film, his sister made it clear that when ever the name Pink Floyd was mentioned Syd/Roger Barrett becomes upset, so she felt she wouldn't mention the film. When the film was finished I sent her a tape, I said its up to you if you show him, I was aching for him to see it but also didn't want it to be a problem. They decided they would mention the tape after it had been on television to avoid anxiety and all the publicity, but as I understand it they didn't give him any fore warning that it was on. Rosemary his sister went around his house the day after the programme had aired it on BBC on the Saturday, and he said to her, "There was a programme about me on TV last night," to which

Rose said, «Oh right really» he said, «It was pretty good actually, I enjoyed it». He particularly enjoyed seeing Mike Leonard his old landlord again, he loved hearing the song 'See Emily Play again and Rose said the documentary had given him a real boost, a lift. I was delighted and relieved to hear this as you can imagine. »
