Coral - Bumble on...

Whether it's a fiver on the grand national or a second mortgage on Cardiff City staying up, everyone loves a bet and after these 13 spots for Coral it's safe to say everyone loves Bumble (or David Lloyd to his bank manager!). Director Tareq at Nice Shirt Films captures Bumble's natural charm and gift of storytelling, as we catch up with the cricket legend in the pub, in his beloved garden, at Old Trafford (cricket ground you philistines!) and the golf course.

Tareq - "He was fantastic, a total professional, very warm and charming too. There was no real script, it was more me working off him from the starting point of a series of questions. I spent a lot of time stifling my laughter. The crew lost it a couple of times. We went off on few tangents that were too weird/silly for broadcast and some that where far to rude.

Last word goes to Bumble on the Ashes, "5-0 England. If it was 6 it would be 6-0". Probably worth a flutter.
