A promotional video designed to promote Blackpool has been named as one of the most romantic adverts ever.
J’aime la Tour, first aired in 2011, which charts a French lady’s love for Britain’s most popular seaside resort, got hundreds of thousands of hits on Youtube as well international coverage for the town.
And now Marketing Magazine readers have declared the advert eight in the list of the most romantic adverts, just behind the famous Milk Tray adverts!
Cllr Graham Cain, cabinet member for tourism and leisure, said: “We’re thrilled to see J’aime la Tour in the top ten romantic ads of all time and hope this message still resonates with people.
“We want visitors to discover what’s new in the resort and the huge amount we have on offer to make you fall in love with Blackpool. There’s something for all the family or to create the perfect romantic break.
“Since this advert aired, Blackpool has progressed significantly, a welcome boost to the local economy and businesses in the town.”
