Those of you who thought that the advertising world was full of
tired, bitter old cynics will have the cockles of your heart warmed by
the story of the two actors from the Ford Mondeo ad.
You remember it, the one with the couple having a row driving across
moors before making up to the backing track,Talking of Happiness, by
Gloria Lynn.
The couple, John Blakey and Nadia Cameron, were strangers before doing
the ad but promptly fell in love on the set. Neither made a move until
later but things then moved swiftly and they were married on
Saturday.
According to our spies at the reception, Cameron looked stunning and
smiled as Blakey thanked the casting director for putting them both in
the ad.
And we all thought the Nescafe couple would be the first to get hitched.
