Cadbury Land Buttons - Kiss Chase (2000, UK)

Was regrettably late catching up to this, and in turn was beaten to the punch in uploading it to TH-cam - no offense - but being informed of this (thanks to Mrs Mcl) has left my brain spinning so vigorously in a tornado of memories and giddiness after over a decade of searching tirelessly through thousands of recorded ad breaks and animators' portfolios for particularly this that I just had to upscale it 2x for this channel. In this visually peppy second spot for an unusually rare staple of British children's nostalgia, Buttons plays a variation of hide-and-seek with the gang, in which whoever she catches first gets her own brand of chocolates, but most of all a big kiss on the face: bonus points if it's Dudley. Directed by Marc Craste at Studio AKA, featuring the voice of Noddy Holder as Dudley Sidebottom.
(if anyone managed to find the Giant Buttons ads or a higher quality copy of this ad then pleeeease let me know!)

Finally. I like Puppy-Love (kids who like or love each other, instead of being mean to each other). It's always cute to see boys and girls getting along instead of fighting, even if they're still very young and learning.

Oh the nostalgia 😁
Here I am rewatching this as an adult and I can see that it's it's cute

i agree with you

[@kianwatson7731]

Buttons really sounds like Florence from The Magic Roundabout.
Maybe Sue Eliott-Nichols or Kylie Minogue voiced her.

[@DJ3lectrical]

She does resemble a love child between Florence and Zebedee to be fair.

They should have had their own television show, these characters would have made a really cute and funny show.

Just noticed that the animation from this Cadbury Land advert is very different compared to the original pitch by John K.

[@bradygreensides6495]

Yes

[@HallOfAdvertising]

It's a lot better animated than I personally remember! (but then again, what more could you expect from Studio AKA)
