Just in time for another cracking Ashes summer comes Tareq's latest spot for betting website Coral. Eliciting the opinions of Sky's lead commentator David "Bumble" Lloyd, Tareq's viral campaign captures the great man pontificating in his unmistakeable manner on all things cricket, begonias and shortbread biscuits.
The films were shot on location at Bumble's home, greenhouse, local pub and golf club, as well as Old Trafford cricket ground. They fully demonstrate Tareq's adept handling of shooting in the 'documentary' style he has much experience in - capturing the subject's personality through questions (this time submitted by Bumble's many thousand followers on Twitter) and beautifully contextualising cutaways, with the hint of fun & mischievousness that runs through Tareq's work very much present in these clips. David Reviews called the films charming for the way they beautifully exploit Bumble's tendency to say whatever comes to mind.
It was a fantastic day spent with Bumble on the shoot - (well, any shoot that ends up in the pub is always a good one) as evidenced by this snap of Bumble and Tareq with the crack Nice Shirt production team of producer James on the left and exec producer Rich on the right.

We're pretty sure Bumble's holding a full-sized pint glass in his hand here: the great man would never drink half pints! It's just that his hands are quite big, what with the cricket and everything.
