Favourite Ads 2026 Insights Guide

The Favourite Ads study starts with a simple question: “What is your favourite ad on TV at the moment?”

Unprompted responses from a nationally representative sample reveal more than just what people like. They show which ads are cutting through – and why.

This year’s Insights Guide unpacks the Creative Edge framework, showing what makes an ad effective: capturing attention, creating emotional impact, and building lasting memory.  

It explores how to move beyond engagement, towards work that builds real brand impact.
