Marks & Spencer (M&S) launch new TV ad


Marks & Spencer, the UK high street retailer, has just launched its latest television advertising campaign promoting its autumn/winter collection. The same models from the previous campaigns travel on the Orient Express.

The company’s advertising campaign, using the multi-generational models, including Twiggy, has been phenomenally successful. It is a sign of a strong campaign when the company issues ‘teaser’ print ads preparing for the TV launch. I will publish a copy of the ad as soon as I can get my hands on one. M&S won the 2006 Stroud Award for age-neutral advertising -let's see if it can do the same in 2007.

The reaction of the advertising pundits is that it is every bit as good as the previous ads. Dick Stroud
