 "Model Citizens"

August 2007
 
 
 
 
Hi Harry,


Reality TV. Celebrity culture.
Pointless? Addictive? Both?
Well, now even Firefly's got in on the act.
Next thing you know we'll have models on the front of our bottles.
Uh-oh.

 

 

"Britain's Next Top Model"

Harry with Lisa Snowdon and Candice filming Britain's Next Top Model What lengths would you go to for the right Detox photo?
A day on reality TV with Lisa Snowdon and 5 wannabe- models perfecting the "Detox" look?

Talk about devotion to the cause.

We haven't seen the "Firefly" episode yet, and frankly we're scared (especially Harry, with his cameo. Cringe.)

But you can watch how we get on this Monday night (9pm) on Living TV
 

And if you fancy the model look yourself, we've got 10 "Detox Hair Make-overs"* to give away, thanks to the show's stylist Michael Barnes. He's styled the likes of Lily Cole and Keira Knightly (like, big names), so clearly he knows what he's doing.

 

The result...

4 bottles of Detox with pictures of Britain's Next Top Model competitors
We can't show you our new Detox bottle yet because that would give away who won. Reality TV ruined.

But the wraps come off on Tuesday: do pop into Selfridges for a sample.
Expect queues round the block.

A big thank you to the amazing photographer, Candice. She's using the programme to raise awareness of water projects in Africa, through her charity Fresh2O.

 

 

 

Fireflies around the world

Malaysian billboard:"Protect our Firefly colonies"


Thank you Raymond for spotting this Malaysian billboard:

"Protect our firefly colonies: Nature's priceless treasure."

Couldn't have put it better.


 

 

Fireflies around Britain

Firefly at Beverley Knight's English Heritage concert

We've been braving the elements at rock festivals, university balls, Art gallery openings and Celeb-fests like the Serpentine party.

If you haven't seen us yet, look out for us at the English Heritage concerts this weekend and next...


 

 

Anglo-Dutch Morphing

Richard and Sjoerd in matching jacket, shirt, glasses and trousers


They say the Dutch and the English have lots in common.
Look at Royal Dutch-Shell, Uni-lever, ABN-Barclays (maybe)...

But would Richard King, our new English head of operations, be able to step into (Dutchman) Sjoerd's shoes?

Well, this was how they both turned up to work on Richard's first day.

Expect a seamless transition.




 

 

Well, hello

Richard does Blue Steel

Speaking of top models, Richard "Blue steel" Hosking has joined our sales team, looking after our UK distributors.
 

Our Firefly ambassadors - Sophie, Em, Naomi, Mary, Alice & Tim

And we've had a whole team of wonderful people helping us over the summer - visiting London customers, sampling at events and festivals, and generally getting very wet.

Thank you Alice, Tim, Joelle, Sophie, Emily F, Emily P, Lola, Louise, Dan, Andy, Naomi, Mary, Em - and anyone we've forgotten...

 



Right, enough inbox distraction from us.

But don't forget Living TV on Monday night.
Or, if you don't have Sky or cable, Channel Four's showing "The Oldest People in the World" at the same time.
 

Thanks for keeping in touch, and hope you're loving the er, Summer,

Harry & Marcus


Harry, Marcus, Kate, Richard, Caroline, Nick, Emma, Rich & all the team.
