Stellar 90 Minutes From England Stars
Theo Delaney has directed two new sketches for The FA’s Get Into Football Campaign that he wrote with writer/actor Rufus Jones. They feature the remarkable acting skills of England stars Peter Crouch, Jermain Defoe, Gareth Barry and Shaun Wright-Phillips as well as Sky Sports’ Chris Kamara. Owing to England’s hectic pre-World Cup schedule, Fabio Capello could only spare the players for 90 minutes but both stories were filmed in the time thanks to extraordinary work from the stellar cast. The films were produced for Hotspur & Argyle’s sister company Contentment Worldwide where Theo has blogged on the joys of working with top footballers. To further nourish his football obsession he’s also been podcasting – hear him host the It’ll Go To Penalties World Cup podcast here.
