Christmas adverts are an event in themselves nowadays and I must admit that I always look forward to what the big brands will come up with at this time of year.
Cadbury is getting into the festive spirit with a fun commerical featuring an advent calendar brought to life! It's formed by 24 unique Cadbury purple trucks, which in a special twist will traveling across the UK and visiting a different location every day in December.
The new advert is hitting TV screens on 7th November but here's an early look! Go to www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1UdCPVdJEo or just watch below:
