For the third month in a row Wieden + Kennedy London has won the ANNA award for advertising in the national press. In August it was the turn of our ad for Yakult, 'Someone hasn't been home' to take the top prize.
In July our Yakult ad 'Works nights too' was the winner,
with 'Yakult at work' also shortlisted. Ed, Morris,
Executive Director of Lowe London, and July's judge,
said some very nice things. He thought the ad was
"Simple. Iconic. Tonally bang on. Made good use of small
space".
June's winner was our Nike ad featuring Wayne Rooney,
arms outstretched, with a St George's cross painted
across his chest.
