Bloomin’ Heck

Gardener Alan Titchmarch has his own show, and took the opportunity to talk about our pre-chewed pencils today. Good Ol’ Alan – He’s first for tips on growing hydrangeas and pencil news. Watch here

Evans Above

Today Mark had a chat to Chris Evans on his Radio Two show about Concentrate and it’s products. He’s a really nice fella and seemed to like our stuff! If you’d like to have a listen to the interview click here for it in quicktime format, and here for it in realplayer format. Lovely Jubbly.

Concentrate Story

It’s pretty cold and miserable today and it’s the first day back but we’re all quite cheery and think 2009 is going to be a winner. It’s started well as John Lewis recently launched a video about Mark and how Concentrate Design got started! Thank you very much to the lovely people at John Lewis! [...]

Blarney Bla

Today we did an interview on Irish Radio to talk about the idea behind our pencils. Didn’t take the opportunity to do any irish jokes, which in retrospect was probably a wise choice, because it went very well.

A Sporting Chance

This morning we did an interview on Radio Lancashire with Tony Livesey, who used to edit the Sunday Sport. As you can imagine, it was a fairly heavy- weight interview exchanging our views, on politics, the large hadron collider and pre-chewed pencils.

Pre-Chewing the Fat

The wonders of the interweb mean that news of our daft pre-chewed pencils seems to have carried. Today we did an interview with “Mad Dog and Billie” who host a breakfast show in Canada, to explain the idea. We don’t think Mad Dog is really mad.

Promo a go go!

Today we filmed a promotional video about Concentrate for John Lewis. It’ll go up on the John Lewis.com and Concentrate website on Christmas Day! Hopefully you’ll have better things to do that day – but keep your eyes peeled!

Where are we now?

This week Concentrate was featured on BBC 2 in a Dragons Den feature on Peter Jones and some of his investments. If you’d like to watch it on YouTube click here or on our website here.
