Item 1 Star studded football

Football signed by the stars.

Where else could you find the names of Billy Connolly, David Tennant, Ben Miller, Rosamund Pike and Amelia Bullmore on a football!  

Last summer a film crew visited the small village of Croftamie, Stirlingshire to make a feature film "What we did on our holiday" which is due to be released in September of this year.  Written by Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin it is based on the family from "Outnumbered" but with a different cast.

This football has a unique collection of signatures from the stars of the film - Billy Connolly, David Tennant (yes - Dr Who), Rosamund Pike, Ben Miller and Amelia Bullmore.  This is a very special one-off auction item which should appeal to film and football lovers.

Withdrawn from auction - may be auctioned later
