Last week we had two excellent private viewing events for 'The Fastest Bicycle' in London at our partner LSBU: London South Bank University and also at Midlands Arts Centre - MAC's cinema in Birmingham. It was wonderful to see the feature documentary on the big screen. It has been an honour for us to produce the film alongside double BAFTA winning director Michael Clifford at Grand Union Productions and Iconic Productions editor James Watson. We have some very exciting plans for for the film's release in 2025 so watch this space!

Absolutely buzzing to share the latest episode of 'Football and Me' which we had the pleasure of filming with the FA over the summer. This episode shines a spotlight on the grassroots game. The presenters and guests were all brilliant to work with at St George's Park. Check it out and please do share with anyone who loves the beautiful game.

We had an absolute blast filming for the FA (Football Association) recently at the home of the England football team St George's Park. It was for a new series of 'Football and Me' with the first episode focusing on South Asians in the sport. BBC Asian Network sports reporter Amber Sandhu and Sky Sports News presenter Sanny Rudravajhala both did a fantastic job of hosting a lively and enlightening discussion with four special guests including Leicester City Football Club midfielder Arjan Raikhy and Tottenham Hotspur coach Manisha Tailor MBE. One highlight of many from the day was filming Arjan doing some rather awesome 'tekkers'. Check out the film below which was edited fantastically well by the FA's in-house team and do look out for future episodes of 'Football and Me' on a variety of different topics covering key issues in the game in the coming months.

Hugely humbled and excited to share that ICONIC is now an official supplier to The Football Association. We are filming season 3 of 'Football and Me' - a fantastic eight-part presenter-led series delving deep into getting more people from diverse backgrounds into our great game from grass roots up to professional level and featuring an amazing array of guests. We shot the first two episodes last week at the home of England football team St George's Park on grassroots football and South Asian inclusion and Sam had the pleasure of directing the wonderful presenters including and talent including Leicester City Football Club midfielder Arjan Raikhy and our fantastic crew. A big shout out to all involved but particularly to our fabulous Executive Producer for all of his hard work behind the scenes. We cannot wait for the next shoot day and to also see how the FA's in-house team edit the final pieces. This commission means we can now add the beautiful game of football to our growing portfolio of sports films at ICONIC including cricket, rugby union, cycling and gymnastics.

We are producing a new feature length documentary called 'The Fastest Bicycle in the World' which is directed by two-time BAFTA winning Michael B Clifford and edited by our very own James Watson. The film is due for release in the Autumn and it tells the amazing story of Sir Roger Bannister's grandson Barney Townsend and his quest to break the world record for a Human Powered Vehicle (HPV) in Nevada, USA. The teaser features some wonderful archive footage of Bannister running the first sub-four minute mile in Oxford some seventy years ago. We are currently trying to raise additional funds to supplement our recent successful crowdfunding campaign and we have a couple of Executive Producer credit slots available so do reach out if this sounds of any interest. Please share amongst your networks. Thankyou so much.
