HEINEKEN FILM A NEW TV ADVERT ON BERMONDSEY STREET, SOUTH LONDON. HARRY ENFIELD IS THE CULTURE WARDEN.
Life as an artist can definitely be a colourful experience. Just over a year ago I had the pleasure of a fleeting meeting with comedian, Harry Enfield on Bermondsey street. He was busy filming an advert for Heineken where by he plays an overzealous traffic warden / culture warden.
I’ve yet to see the advert released but suspect its probably been held up on the cutting room floor. But I eagerly await its release. Some photos of the day they filmed on location in SE1 London.

Cameo Scene
Being that I work a couple of days a week at ‘Lovely and British’, Bermondsey gift shop I managed to get a cameo scene in the advert. Harry Enfield in warden mode, slaps the shop window with a ‘culture ticket’. I’m at the till and attempt to look surprised, disgruntled and confused. What is this warden up to. Surely he should be fining the cars parked on the double yellows? But what’s this he’s a ‘CULTURE WARDEN’. This is a new one on me Southwark Council. lol

Time for a selfie
Not wishing to miss out on a photo opportunity I asked Harry Enfield for some selfies. He was such a gentlemen and obliged. He even held up one of my prints featuring Bermondsey Street. A big thanks goes out to Harry for his kindness and patience.

Giclee London Print | Originally Painted with Acrylic on Canvas.
The towering chimney stack of Hartley's Jam factory dominates this picturesque view, showcasing Webber Street and Tower Bridge Road. Skilfully painted with acrylic on canvas board, this distinctive artwork delves into the rustic allure of Bermondsey. On the far left "City Space" development comes into view, and further into the distance a bustling laundrette hard at work. At the intersection with Tower Bridge Road, two cyclists patiently await the changing traffic lights while a London cabbie gracefully manoeuvres past.
Delving into the history of Hartley’s Jam factory, it was established in 1901 on the grounds of a former tannery and linoleum factory. Fruits were meticulously sourced from the orchards of Kent and transported via train to the Bricklayers Arms rail depot on Pages Walk. Hartley's maintained their own Thames-side wharf, where sugar from the Tate works in Silvertown arrived for processing. The factory premises have since been converted into modern apartment blocks.
Our array of vibrant prints is a splendid choice for an eye-catching feature wall that beautifully encapsulates the essence of London life. Consider creating a captivating collage on your walls for an art gallery ambiance.
