The advert was shot by photographer Garry Simpson in mid-September and appeared on billboards in early December.

Valentino's hairdressers and Konditor & Cook provide the backdrop for the seasonal image but eagle-eyed locals will notice that the image has been inverted. The snow is also an illusion.
