 TV Spot TA3
'The Lazy Girl's Guide to Hotness'
20 June 2025 Need to cool down? Then TA3's racy new swimwear commercial is not for you. Directed by Amber Grace Johnson, it stars adult content creator Levi Coralynn—if the name doesn’t ring a bell, just know she rings a lot of bells on TikTok and OnlyFans. So how does the Canadian prepare herself for a busy day at the 'office' each day? It's, ahem, more involved than you might think.

 TV Spot VanMoof
'Ride Like No Other'
20 June 2025 One of DAVID's favourite moments from the recent 'Superman' trailer is when Clark Kent (David Corenswet) says, “Eyes up here!" to an opponent before he ascends like a rocket. The sky is blue, the clouds are white, and the sheer joy of flight is back. That same energy permeates this ad for Dutch bicycle manufacturer VanMoof, who also invites viewers to look up.

 Promo Jon Bellion
'Horoscope'
20 June 2025 Singer-songwriter Jon Bellion—no relation to former Manchester United and Sunderland striker David—teams up with 91 Rules (Erik Saltzman and Cameron Tidball-Sciullo) to mark the release of new song 'Horoscope'. Shot in crisp black-and-white, the film has Bellion explore a concrete limbo where light and shadow assert themselves better than his voice, to be frank.

 TV Spot Ryze
'Awareness'
20 June 2025 Juice Newton provides the soundtrack to a commercial for mushroom coffee because beans are so last year. Set to 'Angel of the Morning'—itself a great name for a mushroom—the ad centres around a woman transformed by the power of fungi. That's always been bad news for characters in 'The Last of Us', but not here—we even get a friendly CG mushroom for good measure.

 TV Spot Simba
'How do you sleep yours?'
20 June 2025 This series of six idents emphasising the luxury of Simba mattresses have been made to advertise the brand's sponsorship of programming on Channel 5. Each is a cute reminder of how important our beds are to us, and how important it is to maximise our comfort and the ambience of our boudoirs.

 TV Spot Oban
'The Longest Run'
20 June 2025 The arrival of a fax heralds an epic journey in this entertaining commercial for Oban whisky which serves as a warning not to diss the stuff on social media. Well, perhaps not exactly a warning as the consequences are hardly dire but it nonetheless demonstrates there will be a reckoning if you're uninclined to give the drinks a go.

 TV Spot Hublot
'WW25 Big Bang'
19 June 2025 The Big Bang happened almost fourteen billion years ago. Hublot launched the Big Bang watch in 2005. The former saw the universe expand, the latter helped people tell the time in style. It’s easier to mark the watch's twentieth anniversary, to be honest, so director Amber Grace Johnson seizes her opportunity to explore time and space without the TARDIS.

 TV Spot LPL
'Greener Grass'
19 June 2025 Anna Kendrick's no stranger to adland. The star of ‘Pitch Perfect' and 'A Simple Favour' has turned up in spots for Hilton, Keurig, Frito-Lay, 'Star Wars: Battlefront', and more over the years, with brands of all shapes and sizes keen to harness her energy. The latest is LPL Financial, a wealth management company that asks, "What if you could have the greener grass on your side?"

 Promo Mychelle
'Good Day'
19 June 2025 'Good Day', the title track from Mychelle's debut album, gets an understated promo courtesy of director Flora Scott. The Hackney-born singer-songwriter plays a bowling alley employee whose life is a series of strikes and gutters, ups and downs, both literally and figuratively. She works hard, but dreams harder—enough to make the alley her stage for a few moments.

 TV Spot SNIPES
'Miami'
19 June 2025 Many were disappointed but few were surprised when 'Grand Theft Auto VI' was delayed from autumn 2025 to May 2026. It means Vice City—Rockstar Games' interpretation of Miami—is off-limits for now. However, German streetwear company Snipes deliver a stop-gap in the form of this commercial starring DJ Khaled, who made his name in the real-life Magic City.

 TV Spot Ariel
'One and Done'
19 June 2025 Former England striker Peter Crouch was always an aerial threat, but these days he's more of an Ariel threat (at this point of the comedy show, DAVID would like to remind you there are no refunds). Amid a sea of laundry detergents, fabric conditioners, and lemon juice, Crouch keeps it simple with the Big One—a pod that equals two, count 'em, two of the brand's regular capsules.

 TV Spot Doritos
'Flamin' Hot or Not'
19 June 2025 DAVID never finished season two of 'Squid Game', but he's still glad Doritos kept spoilers out of this season three tie-in. Like a game of Russian South Korean roulette, eight players pass a bag of Flamin' Hot or Not tortilla chips around the table. One in four chips is hot stuff, with Player 410 the unlucky victim. He'll get the help he needs from the guards in pink jumpsuits, right?

 TV Spot Absolut Vodka
'Welcome to the World of Absolut Cocktails'
19 June 2025 Swedish vodka maker Absolut blends mixology and choreography with a nimble commercial directed by Henry Scholfield. The latest 'Born to Mix' spot features supple, progressive moves courtesy of Shay Latukolan, who teaches the cast to move like cocktails. Imagine if this was how you ordered an espresso martini or a cosmopolitan at the bar.

 TV Spot Selfridges
'Freefall'
19 June 2025 Before the next iteration of Superman arrives in cinemas, Selfridges and director Aria Shahrokhshahi invite viewers to look up at the sky and pick out Ruth Green. One of the department store's 'New Age' heroes, she's a fiftysomething skydiver and breast cancer survivor in the best possible kind of freefall, though she does plant her feet on the ground from time to time.

 Promo Mimi Webb
'Love Language'
19 June 2025 T'here must have been moments during the production of this startling promo for Mimi Webb's latest track when everyone must've thought that directors Bradley & Pablo had lost their minds. There's a subtle BDSM aspect to the way people are selected like rescues from a animal home and then paraded at a dog show, but it's all very tongue in cheek.

 TV Spot Hive
'Channel 4 Sponsorship'
19 June 2025 The green credentials of Hive are emphasised by this ident associating the brand with Channel 4's content which pulls back from a front door to show the house sitting in a rural paradise. With various progressive causes becoming less fashionable thanks to the Trump regime, it''s good to see companies persisting with the message that green is best.

 TV Spot Progressive
'Inherit'
19 June 2025 This is a notable change of pace for Progressive Insurance. Parenta-life coach Dr Rick is nowhere to be seen in this 60” commercial—the same goes for Post-it note monsters and CG pigeons. 'Inherit' opts for empathy and realism as it tackles the wealth gap that makes property ownership a pipe dream for many. To help make it a reality, the brand goes back to the start.

 TV Spot Puma
'Have a Ball'
18 June 2025 The Premier League has done a Wimbledon and said, "New balls please". After twenty-five years with Nike, it’s made German sportswear giant Puma the official supplier of the Premier League match ball. Cue this celebratory spot from director Samona Olanipekun, who tells viewers to make the most of the ball when they get it. Use it, as Mötley Crüe once sang, or lose it.

 Promo Leon Vynehall
'Cruel Love'
18 June 2025 Fans of Andrei Tarkovsky will appreciate this promo for Leon Vynehall. There are shades of both 'Stalker' and 'Solaris' to 'Cruel Love', directed by Alex Takács and lensed by Dustin Lane. It helps that shaven-headed producer Vynehall looks like a Tarkovsky character—a man at home in the Zone, if you will. To enter the Void, as he calls it, he places a cross between a contact lens and microfiche on his eye.

 TV Spot Coach
'Not for Walking'
18 June 2025 Charles Melton ('Riverdale', 'May December', 'Warfare') looks the part in this pacy Coach commercial, but he's also ready to fall apart. Before the paparazzi push him over the edge, however, Melton uses his favourite Soho Sneakers as a distraction. The brand likes people who think outside the shoebox, even it it means shoes have to be sacrificed.

 TV Spot Sprite
'Tea Time'
18 June 2025 Golf is a harsh mistress—ask anyone who got chewed up and spat out by the course at this year's US Open. To promote Sprite + Tea, Eastside Golf founders Olajuwon Ajanaku and Earl Cooper put the carbonated drink to the test. Can it turn a hacker into a champion? A nobody into rapper Monaleo's favourite golfer? Of course not, but it does keep players refreshed as they practise.

 TV Spot Channel 4
'Sorry Not Sorry'
18 June 2025 It was only a matter of time before Channel 4 took a pop at Donald Trump and his war on diversity, equality, and inclusion. Newsreader Phil Gayle declares the channel is "sorry, not sorry" for coverage of the Paralympic Games, programmes like 'Naked Attraction', and a talent pool that always goes for broke. The president wants DEI to die, but it's in good health at Channel 4.

 TV Spot AWS
'Get Closer to F1'
18 June 2025 Amazon Web Services—F1's global cloud partner, no less—makes fans wonder how close is too close. How about a 2.2cm gap (not metres, centimetres) between your car and the wall? Or just 0.13 seconds until a rival undercuts you? The brand lives and breathes nuggets of data like these, as much as some viewers crave a decent crash on the first corner.

 TV Spot BMW
'Octopus'
18 June 2025 Finally, a decent commercial for BMW. It's been a few years since the German car manufacturer's communication has been anything other than subpar so this is an extremely welcome development. Supported by some wonderful work from Untold Studios' DIARMID, the ad introduces us to a highly intelligent octopus. It's not as if this creature isn't already intelligent, but this is a very special edition as the voiceover painstakingly describes.

 TV Spot Tom Insurance
'What Matters Stays'
17 June 2025 Tom Insurance (we assume it covers people with other names, too) aims to hit the back of the net and pull on the heartstrings with this 80" spot. Is it possible to do both at once? With the right coach/director, it is! That man is Chris Kirtley, who demonstrates how a father and daughter bond over the beautiful game. Watch this instead of the Club World Cup.

 TV Spot Selfridges
'Flux'
17 June 2025 One of four plaintive spots commissioned by department store Selfridges and Nowness, 'Flux' is not only directed by Tash Tung, but she also stars opposite real-life partner Ange Viaud. The couple are honest and open-hearted as they talk about so much more than this and that—for both, it's a chance to voice hopes and fears about the future. A raw reminder that it's good to share.

 TV Spot On The Rocks
'Fire Pit'
17 June 2025 This droll campaign for ready-made cocktail brand On The Rocks signs off with a doleful game of pass the light beer (like pass the parcel, but for middle-aged white guys). One friend would rather throw himself onto the fire pit than play along, so he reaches into the cooler and pulls out… an Old Fashioned? Now this is how you do the great outdoors like Don Draper.

 TV Spot Godmode
'Parallel Universe'
17 June 2025 Cosmetics brand Godmode, named after a video game cheat code that turns players invincible, sets out its stall with an gorgeous animated film courtesy of Gary Levesque. "In a parallel universe, not so different from our own," the narrator says, "a new beauty is hatched"—good news for those who have extra skill points to spend in the looks department.
