Our ECD Kim Papworth recently came across this pic of some of BMP's creative department from, we reckon, 1986 or thereabouts. It's an impressive line-up of stars-to-be. That's Kim on the far left. Fellow W+K ECD Tony Davidson is fourth from the left in the front row. On Tony's left is Pete Gatley of W+K, Fallon and now Grey. And just behind him is Mark Waites, now of Mother. And, yes, that's the Hofmeister bear in the middle there. Can anyone identify any more of these fresh-faced youngsters?
Update, some results are in: front row, L-R: Kim P (W+K), Joanna Wenley (hard to track down online but may still be a CD at DDB), Peter Gatley (now at Grey), Tony D (W+K), Neil Pavitt, Tony Dyer, Joe Boyd.
Back row: Mark Waites (now partner at Mother), John Pallant (now CD EMEA Saatchi), Colin Jones (now CD at AMV), Jon Steel (in bear suit, now planning guru at WPP), Tim Riley (now creative partner at AMV), Alan Howell, Nick Gill (now ECD of BBH).
