Weetabix returns to TV with new campaign
Cereal brand Weetabix is bringing back the strapline “someone’s had their Weetabix” in a new television campaign.

The ad, created by WCRS will break on Saturday (31 October) during The X Factor on ITV.
The 90-second ad depicts a traditional steeplechase, and focuses on a jockey that falls at the first fence, and goes on to win the race after running it on foot.
Sally Abbott, Weetabix marketing director says the campaign marks a “return to humour” for the brand and aims to communicate the message that having a good breakfast can help you take on any challenge.
The TV campaign also includes 60- and 30-second executions of the advert.
In August, the Lion Capital owned cereal brand launched an on-pack promotion giving away cash from a prize pool of £1m with the aim of attracting new consumers and encouraging repeat purchases from existing consumers.

Great Advert - does anyone know where it was filmed or who the jockeys are in the ad?

All the jockeys should have Weetabix down their breeches in real racing to take this to the next level
