Much celebration last night as Wieden+Kennedy London was named Agency of The Year 2013 at 'advertising's biggest night of achievement' the Shots Awards . We are pleased and proud and a bit hungover. The judges said, "Wieden+Kennedy has demonstrated once again how to create iconic work, irrespective of the category in which it plays. They don't just create great content, they seem to create new benchmarks – with freakish consistency."

And, as if that wasn't enough, we also picked up Shots' award for best commercial of the year, for Honda Hands.

They said, "It feels like the most startlingly original film among the entries… It's the only entry that stands up to repeated viewings, where there's insane attention to detail and so many playful touches."

Congratulations also to Nexus, our production partner on this job.
