McVitie's Victoria, the British biscuits brand, has been using puppies, kittens, tarsiers and owls in ads over the past year. Now, Grey London expands the baby-animal menagerie dramatically for McVitie's first Christmas ad in 30 years.
The 60-second ad shows a family's understandable surprise when Dad opens a box of McVitie's biscuits and a bunch of adorable animals crawl out of the pack. The interlopers include an Alaskan Malamute puppy, a micro piglet, a Persian kitten, a baby rabbit, a duckling, a ginger kitten, a Pug puppy, a baby hedgehog, a baby reindeer and a tiny narwhal hiding in the punch bowl.
Turns out they're talented animals, too, as they join together to sing a Christmassy rendition of the '80s hit "Only You" by Yaz (or Yazoo, as they were known in the U.K.).
