On Saturday the 7th of June Last Night of Freedom made our first ever television appearance in the form of a ten minute slot on BBC1's breakfast news programme. They were looking to do a short section on stag and hen weekends so they approached the most knowledgeable company in the business to provide some expert advice.
After a short discussion in the office it was an easy decision to make that Matt, our Managing Director should be the one to hop on the first plane down to the big smoke. Matt wasn't exactly thrilled as the rest of us were away on a crazy weekend in Edinburgh and he was going to miss the Friday night but in the end he decided it was well worthwhile.
While the stag and hen slot on the news was clearly influenced by the much publicised Ibiza based alchopop fest which was Wayne Rooneys stag do, the hosts thankfully managed to steer clear of this topic of conversation. The programme instead focused on a much broader view of stag and hen weekends, although the other guest did manage to talk briefly about a game of spin the bottle which isn't exactly an activity we have a lot of enquiries about here at Last Night of Freedom.
As the rest of us sat in front of the TV nursing our hangovers in our hostel in Edinburgh Matt proceeded to wow the nation with an un-relentless bombardment of stag and hen weekend knowledge.
Matt's quick thinking was put to the test in front of the nation when he had to detail the most extravagant stag party we have ever organised, you would think they would warn you about the questions you would be asked.
And for his grand finale Matt proceeded to produce the Borat Mankini from under the desk to much amusement, yes, on national breakfast television. We must also congratulate our MD on managing to crowbar the company's name into the interview, that takes skill on the BBC and he pulled it off without batting an eye lid.
So if it's a recommendation you're looking for, how about the BBC, they don't come much more trust worthy than those guys and when they needed a stag and hen expert, they knew exactly where to come.
