RKCR/Y&R Offer ‘Taste of the British Isles’ for M&S

By Erik Oster 

Rainey Kelly Campbell Roalfe/Y&R launched a new spot for Marks & Spencer, offering up a “Taste of the British Isles.”

The spot is an ode to the chain’s locally sourced and/or British inspired offerings, from summer fruits and veggies to a juicy burger and British beer. Eschewing any narrative, RKCR/Y&R lets the food do the talking with 40 seconds of stylish food porn. While the resulting ad may not be groundbreaking, it is visually dazzling and more than a little hunger-inducing. Part of the ongoing “Adventures In” campaign for the brand, the spot will be followed up by 20-second ads focusing on summer occasions, such as “Adventures in Seaside” and “Adventures in Teatime.”
