We have talked much about our vision to become the perfect blend of network and domestic agency. We also set out clear objectives for delivering that: our creative reputation, thought leadership and new business growth.
In this week's Marketing Week it is clear that we have come a long way in delivering this through the whole agencies hard work and determination. We have been named the agency that most marketers would consider working with in the future, as well as coming third in the fantasy pitch list.
This has been achieved by going the extra mile for our clients, showing our commitment through passion and energy, leading debates through our think pieces like Moody Britain and Fatville, and we are extremely proud of these results!
Behind every great man there is a great woman! Following on from our teaser idents for ‘All Star Mr and Mrs’ where we posed three tongue-in-cheek questions to Mrs Kipling, we can now reveal her true identity in our new TVC launching the Mr Kipling’s new ‘Oatibakes’ product.
Taking the traditional inspiration focus of Mr. Kipling ads, the story behind the product is told through the eyes of Mrs Kipling – his wife and occasional catalyst in the great baker’s creative process. The idea of Mrs Kipling was a strategic move to rejuvenate and modernize one of Britain’s best loved brands.
The eccentricity of Mr. Kipling’s dedication to cake, and the perfect pairing with our new heroine who provides inspiration and support, serves to show the love and thoughtfulness that goes into the exceedingly perfect little cakes.
Our beloved Cheerios characters, created in collaboration with Aarman Animations, return to TV screens this month in two new spots. The first, for Honey Cheerios, sees the diminutive family trying to catch Cheerios that have taken to the skies like bees thanks to their delicious honey taste.

Honey Cheerios’ ‘Nets’ broke on March 1st, and you can see ‘Clusteroids’ on air from March 15th.

We recently produced a groundbreaking MasterCard competition by offering one lucky music fan the chance to win a live performance from a previous BRITs winner just feet away from them in their own living room.
We last shared with you our teaser idents which featured a roadie as he prepares an ordinary living room. Now, we are pleased to share our final idents featuring legendary 80s duo, the Pet Shop Boys and our lucky winner Lorraine Sands from Whitton.
Lorraine was chosen for her outstanding knowledge of The BRITs and her unwavering passion for music. Crucially, she was not aware of the music act’s identity until she opened her front door on the day of the shoot... but as you’ll see from the idents, what a reaction she gave!
The Pet Shop Boys had last performed to 16,000 fans at the O2 – on the day of our shoot, they were faced with just four friends in Lorraine’s modestly sized living room. Their intimate set consisted of 'Suburbia', 'All Over The World', 'It's A Sin' and 'West End Girls'.
'I will never forget this for the rest of my life', Lorraine said in our post-gig interview. 'I know that when I wake up tomorrow, my living room will look exactly as it usually does and nothing will be there to suggest that this ever happened. But I know it did, and so do my friends. And that will stay with me forever more'.
Our new idents for Sharwood’s association with ‘Chinese Food in Minutes’ which broke last night on Channel Five at 7.30pm.

Each tip shows Chung Yin’s passion and dedication to authentic Chinese dishes, and the accessible way in which simple dishes can be served at their best.
The programme is dedicated to simple and quick authentic Chinese cooking, making the association with Sharwood’s a perfect. Every tip has been hand-selected by Chung Yin from his travels, making it both an authentic Chinese offering, and something easy and tasty to make that the Sharwood’s fans will love.
