The Brief:

Feature commission on legendary cricket
umpire Harold ("Dickie") Bird having stood in his
66th and final Test Match

Sample copy:
"Merging integrity with drama isn't easy, but Dickie
has unwittingly perfected the art - and in a television age
that has demanded such a character. A devout man, instantly
recognisable and transparently genuine, he has commanded
total respect and his umpiring decisions have been
entirely accepted. 'I am probably of a highly
strung nature,' he admitted."

Testimonial:
We have received your Dickie Bird article which is excellent, interesting and entertaining - Marylebone Cricket Club.
