Online retailer Very rolled out the first installment of its Christmas campaign back in October igniting the age-old debate on when it is appropriate to launch holiday ads. Now, as the festive season begins to draw closer, Very, and its creative agency Grey London, is launching the second ad in the ‘Very Best Excuses’ series.

'It's the Very Best Excuse' encourages viewers to celebrate the things we can only get away with at this wonderful time of year – cozily drinking gin in your PJs in front of the TV while binging on period dramas, dressing up babies in festive costumes or even treating yourself to a luxurious gift – set to the tune of some jolly carol singers.

Running throughout the festive period, the campaign will continue to cover key consumer touch-points across all media.
