Have you ever had one of the best conversations with someone you just met at a train station, cafe, book shop or grocery store, that becomes all you need and you look forward to? Some meetings and conversations don’t end with goodbyes but with a longing to see that person again. But what if the only means of getting back to that person is forgotten, lost, or smudged, as in this case? You’re left living and breathing hope, with a belief in luck.

With direction by Tom Hooper, the Oscar-winning director of The King’s Speech and Les Miserables. “A Christmas Love Story’ for the UK’s National Lottery delivers an engaging storyline that keeps us hooked until the very end. As viewers we root for the leads to reunite and we know they will, but it’s the masterful unfolding of the plot and the brand’s message delivery that makes this ad worth the 3 and a half minute investment. With its compelling narrative and expert direction, this ad is a must-see for those who appreciate the art of film and advertising.
