Both James and Farndale worked at TBWA Tequila more than a decade ago on clients including Adidas, Playstation and Nissan.

“They’re great guys and I’m really pleased with how quickly they’ve settled back into things: a ‘C&C Magic Factory’ sign has appeared mysteriously above their door and cool things are already happening in terms of the work they’re doing and the culture they’re fostering within the creative department,” said Blood.

“This is a twice in a lifetime opportunity, so we’re absolutely thrilled to have them back again,” he added.
