Cadbury and VCCP London have teamed to create “distracted” ads, including this one titled “Mum,” with the source of the distraction being the newly created Cadbury Dairy Milk &More bar–which comes in two flavors, Nutty Praline Crisp and Caramel Nut Crunch.
The idea behind the campaign is to celebrate the bar’s depth by showcasing the distracting power of the &More bar’s fillings, proudly celebrating that “there’s a lot to take in.”
In this spot a woman has locked herself out of the house in the pouring rain. She yells for her mom to let her in–but there’s no response. She calls “mum” on the phone–no answer. The daughter finally goes around to the back of the house, and looks inside through the window to find mom transfixed on the filling in a Caramel Nut Crunch bar.
Tom Speers of production house SMUGGLER directed both commercials in the campaign, including “Mum.”

Johnnie Walker wraps up the year with an inspiring campaign that is a direct and bold response to those who would question the strength of women. Created by AlmapBBDO in São Paulo, Brazil, this anthem film--“Forte São Elas” (“Strong are the Women”) starring actress Alice Braga--references one of the most iconic productions in the brand’s history worldwide:”The Man Who Walked Around The World.”
Produced by Surreal Hotel Arts, directed by Lu Villaça, and featuring an original soundtrack by Cabaret Studio, “Forte São Elas” shows Braga walking as she describes how strength plays an essential role in the daily life of every woman. Whether facing stereotypes or countless other barriers, women are the masters of their own choices and stay true to their journeys.
“The campaign recognizes the emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes. And when they say that whisky is too strong for women, we will tell them: it’s the women who are strong,” said Andrea Rubim, head of marketing for Johnnie Walker.
