Our presentation last year of the 2009 awards was a smash, so we're thrilled to be back with this all–new program of the 2010 winners. These sly, sexy, sometimes hilarious and sometimes somber British commercials and PSA's have a wild creativity often lacking in our homegrown efforts. Chosen annually by top advertising executives and producers across the globe, the program this year includes a karaoke party for thousands in Trafalgar Square, an unforgettable flash-mob dance medley in the Liverpool Street station, and a herd of sheep outfitted with LED lights… (2010, 80 min, digital)

The program keenly illustrates that even a profit-driven art form can be deeply creative and treat an audience like intelligent beings — as opposed to a mindless horde, to be swindled by stupidity.
