To celebrate the release of Dad’s Army: The Lost Episodes on Gold, UKTV has unveiled a huge 1940s army-recruitment style mural which has been specially designed to look as if it has been in place for decades.
The specially created, time-weathered ‘ghost billboard’ harks back to WW2 propaganda advertising and has been designed to appear as if it has re-emerged after being lost to the ages.
Working with Hearts & Science and Talon Outdoor, the 45ft tall mural installed in Clerkenwell, East London took four artists from street art collective Global Street Art Agency 50 hours to painstakingly create using a combination of emulsion and over 250 cans of spray-paint. The mural was sandblasted to make it looked aged and is the first of its kind to be created by Global Street Art Agency. The artwork, designed by UKTV Creative head of design Peter Allinson, features the new cast from the re-made episodes of the much loved British comedy classic.
Crowds gathered as the artists meticulously worked to create the design, which calls on fans to ‘Join Dad’s Army’ and complete the story together.
It hit the press and national newspapers and made an impact with Dads Army fans across social media.
Even Captain Mainwaring himself tweeted about it!
Following a creative pitch, we were appointed by Sony to visually assert the Playstation brand’s iconic status. Our response was a simple, powerful solution which put the PlayStation logo at the heart of the brand, establishing a clear brand hierarchy. This was supported by a strong brand colour and a vibrant and dynamic rendering of the PlayStation shapes. Throughout the project we worked closely with Sony’s internal creative departments, creating a branding solution which works consistently across all platforms, including TV, print and outdoor advertising, online, social media, retail and packaging.

The launch of the new branding follows UKTV’s track record for launching successful original shows. In 2016, it committed over £150m to new programming which resulted in more Original shows across the network than ever before.
The new branding really captures the creative process involved in creating our Original productions, from script writing to set design; storyboarding to editing. Basically, the unsung heroes that are often hidden behind the scenes.
Everything was filmed and edited at UKTV’s headquarters in Hammersmith across a two-day shoot.
Being able to bring content like this to life, in-house is truly rewarding. It also enables us to take more risks and do things differently to set ourselves apart from our competitors.
Working with the hugely talented Alison Carmichael provided us with an additional opportunity, to create a beautiful and truly bespoke logo. The result is a confident wordmark that feels crafted and authentic, like a stamp of approval or a signature.

This brand spot for UKTV is an animated journey which aims to reflect ‘a lifetime of stories’ through their portfolio of 10 diverse channels.
Produced by UKTV Creative, who worked with London based animation studio, Animade, on the character design, set build and visual treatments to create a hybrid animation with 2D and 3D effects.
It was all built and animated using Cinema 4D and After Effects at Animade’s studio in East London.
Through a development process of style frames and animatics – we crafted a hybrid animation that mixed 2D and 3D visual styles with beautifully rendered environments that appear to be made from watercolour and brush strokes; all to bring a unique tactile and artistic look to the final animation.
We also worked with music composer and sound designer, Dave Connelly (Molecular Sound) to create a bespoke piece of music for the ad.
Audio was critical to the overall effect of the animation. We didn’t want the animation or soundtrack to feel traditional. Instead we wanted something bespoke and unexpected to take viewers on a journey, audibly as well as visually.

UKTV’s premium entertainment channel W is using disruptive scare tactics to build anticipation for new reality TV show Celebrity Haunted Mansion.
Leading the campaign, and tapping into the public’s fascination with horror, is a spooky billboard designed to unsettle onlookers during the day before morphing into a terrifying animated image and sound display after dark. The spectacular outdoor advertising display was hosted at both Westfield Shopping Centres in Stratford and Shepherd’s Bush on Saturday 17 February, with the transformation at 5.17pm, the exact moment the sun sets.
The transformative billboard featured the hosts of the new show, Christine Lampard and Matt Richardson, who morphed into ghostly Victorian characters after dark. As the sun set, the unique billboard saw Lampard and Richardson’s faces become utterly unrecognisable as they were sucked back in time and possessed by Victorian ghost versions of themselves. Christine Lampard became a ‘black-eyed’ ghost in an image based on a real Victorian portrait as she sat inside the Victorian-built Mansion. A haunting sound shower accompanied the billboard and shoppers took to social media to comment on the arresting creative.

Dave is one of Britain’s most iconic and loved TV channels. From October 23rd he was a bit out of character.
At exactly 3.28 pm, the hungriest time of day, Dave got a bit confused and turned into a completely different channel called Rupert.
Rupert, a pontificating, polo playing, slipper wearing square, changed the schedule and started showing nonsense like the art appraisal show, ‘Private Collections’, the International Chess Championship, ‘Battle of The Boards’, and some vintage film noir, with the Parisian Classic ‘Ni Pour L’amour Ou L’argent’.
This out of character content did not just stop with the TV broadcast. Rupert took over Dave’s advertising space swapping out the classic ‘Dave’ chalkboard branding with a gold and red velvet identity for ‘Rupert’.
He controlled Dave’s social media, posting about Polo and the correct place setting when hosting a dinner party.
But SNICKERS® soon put a stop to the chaos.
In the live broadcast the plug was pulled, a set of colours bars appeared and a Snickers bar slammed onto screen with the famous tagline “You’re Not You When You’re Hungry”.
Having had a SNICKERS®, Dave returned to the air and normal service resumed.
With the chaos over, an open letter of apology, in the form of an ad, was then issued containing a promise to all loyal Dave viewers that thanks to a stack of SNICKERS®, Rupert will never return to disrupt the channel again.
As part of the iconic ‘You’re Not You When You’re Hungry” campaign ad agency AMV BBDO commissioned UKTV Creative to create the three 60″ TVCs to play out in commercial airtime, as well as Rupert channel branding and social media assets.

The series follows Frankie Drake, a female private detective operating in Toronto in the 1920s.
We wanted to demonstrate the idea of ‘a woman in a man’s world’.
To do this we used retro styled animations that transformed from 1920’s female themes (perfume / cocktails / jewellery) – into something more masculine (guns / motorbikes / punch bag)

The UKTV Awards is an internal annual event, rewarding and celebrating the achievements of our colleagues across 10 categories. UKTV is all about culture. Internally, our aim is to promote our “CLICC” values and encourage employees to enjoy the work they do and to participate more within the business.
What better way to do that than to really hold our talent up on a pedestal, with the nominees of the awards receiving the Hollywood treatment (photographically anyway).
The Idea for 2018, was to recreate all the categories and nominations as well-known movie posters. Each category linked tenuously to a movie theme and each nominee posing as a character from the film.
This would culminate in an ‘Oscars’ style ceremony, whereby introduction videos and winner announcements were accompanied by moving versions of the posters.
The aim was to really engage everyone in the business as well as to promote the culture and environment that UKTV cultivate – one that is fun and creative, as well as one that doesn’t take ourselves too seriously. The designs were shared across social networks as the winners were announced, all helping to demonstrate why UKTV are one of the top 100 places to work for.

In July 2017 during Pride, Dave used its trademark wit and levity to support the LGBT community in a copy-led OOH and social campaign. As a channel targeted towards young British men (25-34) who increasingly expect brands to reflect the modern masculinity that they personally embody, we wanted to leverage Dave’s standout channel name to powerful effect during Pride week.
Using the cultural insight around masculinity having had a mainstream revamp, and positioning Dave as the witty, modern male voice of the nation, the campaign ‘Dave Loves Dave’ was born. A light-hearted, witty execution that sat in OOH formats including socialite screens in Londons bars, digital escalator panels in prime location tube stations and digital 6 sheets. We also distributed beer mats and bar runners for use within London bars, plus Dave challenged LGBT stereotypes and assumptions with witty one-liners and commentaries summing up with the hashtag of #davelovesdave on Twitter. We printed merchandise to hand out at pride including t-shirts, sunglasses, whistles and flags. Tees and banners etc will call out the #davelovesdave message on the Intermedia float at Pride London. Finally on the Dave channel, around suitable content (and to younger audiences, Dave will featured #davelovesdave interstitials.
The OOH locations we booked allowed us to target audiences as they were traveling to and from pride locations, the social support encouraged further conversation online and the TV interstitial support cemented our support on the channel itself.

UKTV Live invited 350 guests from production companies, press and media, platforms and affiliates to a morning at Claridge’s ballroom on Wednesday 13th September.
We put together a full presentation of our upcoming slate of commissions, with onstage Q&As with the likes of David Haye, Alex Jones, Dr Christian, Christine Lampard, and the casts of Taskmaster, Red Dwarf, Porters, Zapped and Murder on the Blackpool Express.
As head of design, my task was to brand the event and manage all design related materials. Due to the heritage and tradition associated with Claridge’s we needed to find a look that would effectively brand the event, but also make the most of our beautiful surroundings.
Our solution was to brand the entire event with a bold but simple colour palette of black and gold. We also considered a variety of textures and finishes so that all print materials were of premium quality and in keeping with the opulent location.
We worked with the hugely talented hand lettering Alison Carmichael to create a beautiful and bespoke hand drawn logo. We then took the radical step to developed the hand drawn word mark into a unique 3D gold sculpture, which we then animated across all the screen based material across the event.
There was also interactivity based on the new UKTV Originals branding – customisable t-shirts, phone cases and notebooks available to make on the day, and a “UKTV Originals” wall greeting guests on arrival.

UKTV Creative were tasked with repositioning Really as the strong and unique channel it is and communicate this through a bold new on-screen presence. To do this we created a new OSP layout with a confident typographic style and developed a colour palette that is as diverse as the stories we tell. These colours formed a duotone effect that is used across the channel’s on screen presentation as a distinctive and constant graphic language. Specific colours are used to hit varying tones of voice and give a gentle nudge towards Really’s key programme genres.
Research carried out by UKTV revealed that Really viewers find real life stories more powerful than fiction and enjoy content that engages through the need for human understanding. Armed with this insight, UKTV Creative has designed a set of new channel idents with the strapline ‘Life on TV’, which tap into this emotional connection and appeal to a broad audience.
“The new idents centre on intimately-shot interviews with real people, who open up and tell their own emotional story to the camera. These complement the new brand strapline ‘Life on TV’. A white frame is also used to frame our content and act as a window into real people and the powerful stories they have to tell.” – Peter Allinson, UKTV’s Head of Design
Really viewers, prompted by on-air navigation, can watch the full-length versions of these intimate interviews online at https://really.uktv.co.uk.
“We interviewed a variety of extraordinary people that have a fascinating story to tell. They were all filmed on location on a two-day shoot. The final idents are a moving portrait of each contributor using a single tracking shot. To accentuate their stories, we used a double exposure effect to reveal another layer of their story through footage that plays within their silhouette.” – Peter Allinson, UKTV’s Head of Design

Blips, bleeps, and Beethoven inform this melodic promo for Dara O Briain’s Go 8 Bit. The comedian and video game enthusiast conducts a chiptune symphony to mark the show’s latest series.
Pixels dot the screen as these virtuoso gamers register high scores and bum notes. There’s also a fun nod to that most embarrassing gaming faux pas: pressing ‘pause’ by mistake. Such details suggest the programme is geared towards casual and competitive gamers alike, while O’Briain’s presence should pique wider interest.

BFI takeover for UKTV’s annual showcase event, UKTV Live.
The fastest-growing broadcasting network in Britain, UKTV, took over London’s Southbank today as it created a live spectacular for VIP guests at the BFI. Stars including Amanda Holden, Sir David Attenborough, Lily Cole, Greg Davies and Craig Charles appeared at the event to celebrate the new season of original shows for the UK’s biggest multichannel broadcaster.
Speaking at UKTV Live 2016, the broadcaster’s annual showcase event, CEO Darren Childs said,
It feels great to be celebrating all the fantastic new shows we’ve been making with the guests here at BFI today. UKTV is investing heavily in great new programming and we have such riches here to show for it. A massive 73% of the British population now watch our channels every month, and what’s really exciting is that UKTV Originals – which are all made by the fantastic talent and producers here today – are an enormous part of that success.

Holiday / seasonal programme spot
Our objective was to attract viewers across the Easter holiday period through a unique and engaging creative execution. Our idea this easter was to invite our viewers on an ‘egg hunt’ to seek out and collect all of the comedy classics GOLD has to offer.
We collaborated with Feed Me Light to create a set of beautiful illustrated 3D Easter Eggs and an expertly rendered cardboard world that included recognisable sets from the shows.
The Easter eggs will be collected as the promo progresses until the basket is bursting with the comedy talent we all know and love.
We also created a set of disruptive IPPs that pop up during programmes across the Easter weekend – and once they have been spotted, the viewer is able to enter a competition with the chance of winning a GOLD Easter hamper.
The egg characters will also feature across social media to maximise our campaign reach and get our viewers engaged online.

In January 2016, we set out to redefine UKTV’s purpose, following a successful campaign in 2015 to launch our new company strategy and values.
In collaboration with Cookie Studio, we created a beautiful animation to capture UKTV, the place where anything is possible. The solution was to build a 3D isometric world that showcases UKTV and our portfolio of 11 channel brands through a series of immersive and highly detailed brand spaces. The film explored areas of the office familiar to colleagues including the spiral staircase, the swinging chairs and our brand logos. We wanted colleagues to relate to the film and feel proud to be part of UKTV. The 3D spaces where created as a looping animations for use online and across social – enabling viewers to have more time to enjoy the detail of each space in their own time. To complete this piece, we decided that if the video was intended for our employees – it should be voiced by our employees as well. This helps to get everybody involved in a piece that we can all be proud of and further reinforce our company purpose: UKTV – Entertaining the nation from a place where anything is possible
