You’ll probably already have seen how a certain type of person has been outraged by Marks and Spencer’s new Christmas ad for going ‘woke’.

And the fury which greeted it in some quarters only made us love it even more.
We mention it again because, along with Zawe Ashton, Tan France, and Sophie Ellis-Bextor, you might have noticed that the M&S ad also stars Hannah Waddingham.
And guess who stars in Bailey’s Christmas TV campaign? That’s right, Sophie Ellis … no, no, no, it’s Hannah Waddingham!

More importantly, can we please *have* Hannah Waddingham in every TV ad (and show), regardless of whether it’s the festive season or not?

I like to think all the ads exist within the same narrative universe. That Hannah must be having the time of her life this Christmas.
