This “Operation School Run” TV spot underscores that back-to-school needs can be met at Argos, a U.K. digital retailer selling more than 60,000 products through its website, mobile channels, 850+ stores, and over the telephone. For instance, Argos customers can order Tu clothing online by 2pm for next day home delivery or free Click & Collect from stores across the country.
Created by The&Partnership London and directed by Matthijs van Heijningen via MJZ, the :30 follows a not-so-typical first day back as Mum and Dad make sure the kids have all their uniforms in check before they set off for school–by parachuting out the back of the family Chinook twin-engine, tandem rotor, heavy-lift helicopter with Mum in tow.
Yan Elliott, joint ECD at The&Partnership London, said, “Even the school run feels like a military operation sometimes. With Argos you’re as good to go as humanly possible!”
