The ad will play on television screens across the UK from November 2013 and throughout 2014 and is part of the ‘Year of Homecoming’ campaign, a year-long programme of events and celebrations which also includes a month-long celebration of malt whisky. It will also reach new international audiences through social media with visitors being encouraged to share photos of their brilliant moments.
