The advert, featuring comedian Romesh Ranganathan and directed by Dougal Wilson—the creative mind behind Paddington in Peru and John Lewis Christmas campaigns—poses the provocative question: “What has the BBC ever given us?” The ad showcases a star-studded cast, including Chris Martin, Claudia Winkleman, David Jason, and Greg James, gathered in the iconic EastEnders’ Queen Vic pub.
