Last season they turned up the heat for fashion label Aquascutum on location at the quintessentially British Cliveden House and this season, Gisele Bundchen and Jamie Dornan are back to do the same for the brand – this time posing against the scenic backdrop of London’s St Paul’s Cathedral.

“I love the passionate electricity; power is such an aphrodisiac,” Aquascutum’s ceo Kim Winser tells today’s Daily Telegraph of the images, which will appear in magazines next month.

But it’s not just the images you need to get excited about – the label has reportedly teamed up with accessories designer Sara Porro to create, for the first time, a collection of bags for both men and women, something which Winser explains is “a development with huge potential.”

High Point Films, the film sales division of Carey Fitzgerald’s London based High Point Media Group, has acquired international sales rights to David Rocksavage’s “Shadows in the Sun” and has sold Hanro Smitsman’s “Skin” to Ascot Elite, Germany. “Shadows” stars the Oscar nominated Jean Simmons, as well as James Wilby and Jamie Dornan. The film follows the story of a man who visits his mother on the Norfolk coast and finds himself concerned with her relationship with a mysterious young man. “Skin,” based on true events, is Smitsman’s first feature, having previously won the Golden Bear at the Berlinale for his short, “Klaas.” “Skin” details the Nazi skinhead movement and focuses on Frankie, a teenage son of Jewish Holocaust survivor who slowly gets roped in. High Point also picked up world sales for “Summer Heat,” a Dutch romantic thriller about a magazine photographer who falls in love with a mysterious woman connected to gangsters. Fitzgerald said in a statement, “‘Shadows in the Sun’ is a moving, beautifully realized and ultimately redemptive film about family, memory, forgiveness and love.” Regarding “Skin” and “Summer Heat,” he said the film represented “some of the most exciting talent, both established and fresh, coming out of Holland today.”
