Tennent's launch advert to mark end of T in the Park

Tennent's Lager have launched a new advert to mark the end of this year's T in the Park.

• A scene from the new commercial

The commercial, which is the second ad from Tennent's this year, hit TV screens across Scotland yesterday after a special preview for T in the Park audiences on the Sunday evening.

Celebrating the spirit of the festival, the new advert closes with an acknowledgement and thank you from Tennent's to the hundreds of thousands of music fans who over the years have contributed enormously to the festival's success.

As the advert opens, viewers are transported to Balado campsite in 1887, as Hugh and his butler Barnes take an evening stroll at their inaugural T in the Park. "Well Barnes, my first ever T in the Park was a success" crows Hugh to Barnes. He agrees, "Resounding Sir!"

As they walk through the lantern lined trees that resemble the magically lit walkways of T in the Park today, Hugh continues to sum up the spirit of the weekend, "With music, good times, and my marvellous lager".

Music fans of the era wander behind the Tennent's founder, making their way back to the Victorian campsite after what has been an exhilarating day.

As the sun sets and the advert draws to a close, Hugh has one last thing on his mind that is likely to strike a chord with many festival -goers, "There is one thing though Barnes... where did we pitch the tent?".

The advert closes with a special message from Tennent's to T in the Park music fans from past and present, "The Fabulous Festival Conceived by Hugh. Made Spectacular by Fans Like You".
