We have some very exciting news to start off the New Year: we're delighted to announce that we've been appointed to UKTV's agency roster for creative communications after initially meeting with UKTV in December through Oystercatchers. UKTV reaches over 42 million viewers per month through a portfolio of ten distinctive TV channels including Dave, Watch, Alibi, Gold, Good Food and Yesterday. 

Our MD Neil Christie says, "We're delighted to be working with the team at UKTV. We spent all of Christmas watching telly in preparation." 

Simon Michaelides, Marketing Director at UKTV says, “I'm very excited to be adding W+K to our roster of agencies. With such an outstanding creative record, they're ideally placed to help unlock the full potential of our key brands and shows, and maintain UKTV's consistent track record of growth in an increasingly competitive environment."

We're looking forward to rolling up our sleeves and getting started on some work with our newest creative partners, whose industry has such close ties to our own.

We'll be in front of the magic box if you need us – all in the name of a research, of course. 

this is the life

If like us, you like to while away a Sunday morning leafing through the newspaper supplements, you may have spotted our latest Lurpak work nestled amongst the pages last weekend.

Our new print campaign announces the arrival of Slow Churned butter, the latest addition to the Lurpak product line, and celebrates the concept of truly savouring and embracing indulgent, 'this is the life' culinary moments.

Made from the finest quality cream, Lurpak® Slow Churned butter is churned in small batches over several hours to create a fuller rich and creamy flavour. It’s a natural culinary addition to those special down-time moments. 

The print campaign, shot by photographer Joss McKinley, captures the simple pleasure of slowing down and taking the time to indulge in tranquil moments. The soft-spoken tone of voice and pared back photographic style are a departure from the brand’s previous bold advertising imagery, letting the simple beauty of a peaceful moment shine through in an arrangement of ingredients that make up a perfect pause – crusty bread, coffee and Lurpak® Slow Churned butter. 

The launch is supported by a national print, social, digital and PR campaign, including an exclusive range of recipes that showcase the unique taste of Lurpak® Slow Churned by renowned French author, chef and baking supremo Richard Bertinet.
