This was a delight - such an original mix of storytelling, biography, and comedy, with lots of twists, turns, and callbacks. I knew James' hilarious social media clips but this was another level. Highly recommend. | | |
James was a great asset during our Women's Six Nations match between Scotland and Italy, hosting the pre-match meeting between the captains, presenting the post-match awards and providing social media correspondence throughout the day. He was enthusiastic, flexible and convivial. | | Six Nations Rugby | https://placid-fra.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/production/rest-images/zqiq8n9efryrq/airtable-893d822ec515e1db8a4e9bb21811c8ef-ocmgqyeg.png
