Pontevedra 'Beefeaters' become selfie fodder for tourists

 

Pontevedra 'Beefeaters' become selfie fodder for tourists

Pontevedra 'Beefeaters' become selfie fodder for tourists
TOURISTS posed in Pontevedra with a bunch of Beefeaters believing they were the official guards of the provincial government, or Diputación headquarters – without realising they were a trio of businessmen in costume filming an advert.

The red-gowned men own the company Master Discotecas Móviles, a travelling disco company whose work is constant during fiestas, and who were setting up a new commercial ahead of tomorrow's (Saturday's) annual carnival.

A date when everyone goes partying, parading and posing in fancy dress, Master Mobile Discos decided to opt for a 'Brexit-themed' costume, that of the famous guards who patrol the Tower of London and who are some of the most-photographed humans by trippers to the UK capital.

The threesome did not expect to find themselves in the same position in Pontevedra – but did not correct those who posed with them for selfies; at least, not until after they had finished with their photos.

“When we saw they were asking to pose with us for photos, we were thrilled,” said one of the three, Hugo Andrade.

“We were so grateful to them.

“We always try to make our videos as eye-catching as possible, and I think this time we certainly managed that!”

The above photograph, supplied by Master Discotecas Móviles, was one of several taken with the costumed DJs that day.
