| A lot of entries and the judges felt it was a strong category. So all places were deemed to be very worthy Ad of the Year finalists. First place went to PPC cement for a clever, entertaining solution to what should been a very tough brief: 15% extra on a bag of cement. Well done for cracking that one. | |
| Film | Not a lot to choose from in this category but clear winners in the end. Top spot went to McDonalds for a fun, cleverly executed spin on their Kids Birthday Parties campaign. And lastly, the Draft Draught was a big hit. Well done to all the winners, let's keep celebrating the good work. |
| Radio | A really fun, fresh execution for Twin Saver was a very clear winner in radio. Really great to see all that craft and humour going into a 20 second spot for a change. |
| Ambient/outdoor | Two pieces shared first place and the panel was loathe to separate them as they were both worthy winners in their own right. A simple, classic poster idea for Land Rover and a highly-crafted, tactical ambient idea for Doom. |
