This is Charles, our gardener, with a big vegetable. We thought it was supposed to be this size. Indeed, we were a bit concerned that he might hurt himself toting it around. Turns out it was a prizewinner and somebody gave him a badge for it.

He suggested that we should put some of our work up for a badge. We laughed and told him that we just liked to focus on producing great communications, but he insisted. So we did and, lo and behold, we won some. Quite a lot in fact.

They included: 3 from the Royal Television Society, 9 from CiB, 2 from BAIE, the BP Expo Award, an Eventia Award, 3 from the New York Film and Video Festival including last year’s Gold Award and one from the US International Film and Video Festival.

The moral of this story is, of course, that if one of the team has a good idea we should listen to it.
