Domino's has struck a multimillion pound deal with Channel 4 to sponsor Hollyoaks from Monday 12 January.
The two-year partnership will see the pizza delivery firm’s branding visible around the broadcaster’s long-running drama Hollyoaks on Channel 4, E4 and 4oD.
Global creative agency Iris created the sponsorship idents featuring a fictional production crew filming on the set of Hollyoaks as they are interrupted by a deliveryman stating: “Who ordered Domino’s?”
The deal was brokered by Channel 4 Sales, Havas Media Group agency Arena, alongside production house Lime Pictures.
