NEWSPAPER
Low entries, low quality of work. No Award

Also low on entries, fortunately one clear winner. Only 1st place through to Ad of Year.

A couple of good entries here, loads of healthy debate. 1st & 2nd place go through to Ad of Year.

TELEVISION
A very good winner in an otherwise mediocre month.

No Award
