Job title: Creative Artworker.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Footballer.

Favourite retro advert?

So many to choose from! The classic Irn-Bru ad where the bottle rolls under the steamroller and dents the roller rather than smashing the bottle; the Toshiba ones with the technical line drawings mixed with the real products; and the Kia-ora or Um Bungo adverts were great when you were little. Probably the Irn-Bru one stands out the most.

What would your super power be?

Would have to be flying. Would certainly make my commute a lot easier!

What’s your guilty pleasure?

Not very exciting but it would have to be dark chocolate or Pepsi. The guilt kicks in when I go to see my dentist.

What item could you not live without?

My… spinal cord?

Describe your perfect Sunday

Would have to start with a long lie-in then relaxing with friends with maybe a few drinks then all rounded off with a proper Sunday roast dinner.

What’s your Tory name?

James Ardross-Bagory
