The Premiership DVD Collection 2008

The Premiership DVD Col­lection was a chance to own every second of every action-packed Rangers or Celtic SPL game of the 2008/2009 season on DVD.

The Rangers box set was introduced by Mark Hateley and the Celtic box set by Murdo MacLeod.

Working with Cathy Beck and Boulevard Enter­tain­ment in London, Lyn McNicolPR hosted a press launch and photocall at Hampden stadium with Mark and Murdo and a huge armchair courtesy of Feather & Black.

Lyn McNicolPR liaised with the venue, catering, Rangers and Celtic PR, sourced the props and sent out press launch invites to relevant journalists.

The press turnout was phenom­enal, and with a little help from photog­rapher Alan Peebles the next day's press covered it widely, as did the STV teatime news.

The client was happy.

The press were happy.

The presentation consisted of an intro­duction by the MD of Boulevard, a big-screen viewing of DVDs, Q&A with Murdo and Mark, then the photocall itself.
