In the film, Mr Simson appeared dancing in front of many West Country landmarks. After the brief film Mr Simson proposed and a delighted Miss McDonagh accepted.
Trainee lawyer Miss McDonagh said there were a few titters when the film started. "Pete told me to keep watching. I never thought he would go to these lengths but it is typical of Pete, he likes to be in the spotlight. The film looked awesome, really professional on the big screen, and it was hilarious."
The five minute-long spoof shows Mr Simson in a variety of colourful pants writhing on a bed, looking wistfully over a cliff top and walking along a beach as he mimes to Daniel Bedingfield's If You're Not The One.
It was filmed on location across Bristol and Somerset, taking in the sights of Cheddar Gorge, Brean Down beach, Ashton Court estate and the Clifton Suspension Bridge.
After the screening finished at the Watershed, a spotlight came on Mr Simson who got down on one knee and proposed to Miss McDonagh to a round of applause. "I wanted to propose in a way that was thoughtful but I have never taken myself very seriously so a romantic meal wouldn't be in keeping with my character," Mr Simson said.
