Guy Ritchie, known for his work on films including Sherlock Holmes, Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, has directed the first TV advert for David Beckham's single grain Scotch whisky, Haig Club.

The ad showcases a series of journeys made by a group of friends through the Highlands. Ritchie, who makes a cameo in the advert along with Beckham, commented 'This project had so many elements that I find appealing; it's a film about good mates having an adventure and coming together for a celebration. David is a good friend and we had a lot of fun making this together'.
