NEWS: The Muppets deliver advertising gold for Warburtons

Christmas is often a good time for advertising as even if there isn't a good new ad there's always timeless classics like the Coca-Cola truck advert to look forward to. Of course, in recent years John Lewis has delivered the goods most consistently with its hallmark sentimentality. However, with this year's 'Man on the Moon' creative missing the mark for many, there's been opportunity for someone else to step in. Well, the bakery company Warburtons, not exactly the first brand I think of for advertising, have not only stolen the limelight but well and truly blown everyone else out the water. 

In a rather unexpected but bizarrely glorious tie-up, Kermit and friends sell Giant Crumpets like no crumpets have ever been sold before. Indeed, launching in to song with 'The Giant Crumpet Show' the advert beams with the charm and joy that people want, perhaps, more than ever with everything that has gone on recently. To be honest, this feels like an instant classic to me and one of the best pieces of advertising for years. Massive congratulations to Warburtons - this is a genuine pleasure to watch.

Anyway, enough of me talking. Sit back and enjoy the show...
