Love and Warburtons

There's a very long story about how I came across this video, far too long to go into.  But the extremely short version is that I was doing research and came across a British production company, Merman, which also produces commercials, calling the wing Merman Branded.  There was no particular reason for me to look at their commercials, but I did.  And there was this total gem.


It's a little over 2-minutes, about a baking company, Warburtons.  And it's a joy.  I should also add, I suppose, that it stars Oscar-winner Olivia Colman.  So, there's that.  And also worth noting is that it was directed by Declan Lowney, who has a long career directing TV series and made-for-TV movies in the U.K,, as well as some series in the U.S, most notably to American audiences with eight episodes of Ted Lasso.  (Final note:  the guy playing the owner of the family company, who does a very nice  job in the role, is the chairman of the company, Jonathan Warburton.)
