Dunlop - behind the scenes

This was one of two commercials with Benedict Cumberbatch. We shot the first one 'Mansion' inside and out Wrotham Park and built this set in the Stable Block. Benedict was charming and must have researched the crew as he said 'Good Morning Ged' as he walked up and shared my hand. No actor had done that before on day one. Very impressed. He came and joined me in the Drawing Room and we discussed the Art by John Singer Sargent, Van Dyke & Reynolds
