JUST weeks after donning onesies in a bid to boost Scottish tourism, Shetland ponies are back in the spotlight - and moonwalking to Fleetwood Mac.

• The onesie-wearing ponies

The ponies, along with a pair of seals and a tractor-driving farmer, star in the new advert from mobile phone network Three.

The advert is set in the wild Shetland countryside, and focuses on a particularly well-groomed pony dancing to the tune of Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Everywhere’. While there is a chance that some of the pony’s moonwalking is computer-assisted, the scenic landscape is all real.

The campaign also features the chance to create your own Shetland pony mash-up video in a variety of styles, from post-apocalyptic island rave to Bollywood-inspired group dance.
