Grey London creates Cathedral City 'Stay Home' campaign in the national lockdown

BOAST is a place where you can find out about recent creative campaigns.

It is a space where agencies can tell us about the new work they are proud of; blowing their own trumpet, so to speak.

Here's the latest from the creative world as we know it.

A campaign from Grey London

Saputo Dairy Crest has launched a heart-warming TV campaign to support the government message to stay at home, and position the Cathedral City cheese as the perfect staple to liven up meals during lockdown.

Created by Grey London, ‘Stay Home’, launched on Saturday evening during Britain’s Got Talent on ITV and will run until early May.

This is Cathedral City’s first TV commercial in three years. Carefully repurposing existing footage from past Cathedral City commercials, ‘Rules of Cheese’ and ‘Come Home’, the TVC presents scenes of near empty schools, streets and roads before cutting to a family cooking and enjoying meals in their home. Soundtracked by the Dan Croll song, ‘Home’, the work emphasises the government’s advice that home is the safest place to be in these lockdown times.

“Right now, more than ever, the safest, most comforting place to be is home - #stayhome”.

The TVC concludes with a shot of the Cathedral City range – mature cheddar, grated mature cheddar, and sandwich slices, alongside the brand’s endline “The Nation’s Favourite”.
