The set St Philips is a towering presence on the Midlands circuit, leaving its competitors in its shadow. The set enjoys a virtual monopoly on the leading commercial talent in the region and the sheer column of quality practitioners the set houses makes it a player nationally as well we regionally. Interviewees were quick to commend it, and also reserved praise for a clerking team that "provides an efficient, obliging and valuable service.
