Everyone in the Advertising/Public Relations world wants to make the campaign-- that becomes the benchmark for that generation. In 1971 it was Coca-Cola’s "I'd Like to Buy The World a Coke." In 1984, it was Apple's Macintosh Ad. In 2023, it could be this: Red (Land) Rover.

Scene 1: An ariel shot over the English moors before sunrise. As the dawn breaks, the camera focuses on a Brontë like manor. Inside the house, Idris Elba (in a tuxedo) begins to descend the grand staircase. As Elba starts walking down the stairs, he begins to whistle the Red Rover tune as he undoes his bowtie.

Scene 2: As Elba begins to whistle the tune, the red land rover begins to cross Wuthering Heights-like scenery as it crosses foggy West Yorkshires. As the car pulls into a manor which is called Wuthering Heights, Elba says Red Rover, Red Rover, send the Ranger Rover over.

Scene 3: As Elba leaves Wuthering Heights, he gets into his 2024 Red Range Rover and drives off into the sunrise.
