After you watch this new ad for British candy and chocolate manufacturer [Cadbury](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-twirl-campaign), you will agree that it is just a matter of time before knock-off versions will sprout up on [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beechers-handmade-cheese). Fallon’s latest spot in the A Glass And A Half Productions series for Cadbury’s [Dairy Milk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-milk-1) is pretty entertaining. This fun ad follows their 'Gorilla' and 'Truck' series, combining a retro track with some good, clean fun.

The ad is set in a photographer's studio, with two young children. When the photographer is summoned away, 1980's electro track "Don't Stop the Rock" plays, and the kids' dazzling eyebrow moves begin.
