The 'Ted Lasso' actress stars alongside the Gold Vocal Collective in the drinks brand's annual festive advertisement - which launches on screen on Thursday (02.11.23) - and she admitted the tipple is one of her favourite "adult treats".

She said in a statement: : “Christmas is my favourite part of year, a time to get together with my friends and family and indulge in our own festive traditions.

"From nights out with friends to the much-needed catch ups with family around the kitchen table, with spontaneous

cocktails to cosy evenings by the fire, it’s a time to break away from the routine and enjoy all the festive

fun….Who better to partner with for Christmas than the most festive adult treat – Baileys!”

The commercial, which is described as a "symphony of indulgence", sees Hannah take on the role of conductor and suggesting the choir break for a Baileys, prompting them to sing acapella as their Baileys 'Choc-tail' is made.

The brand - who claim to sell two bottles a second throughout the month of December - are delighted to have the former 'Game of Thrones' star and the MOBO Awards-performing vocal group on board for the campaign.

Charlie Gibbon, Marketing Category Director for Gins, Pimm’s and Baileys said: “We are so excited to officially kick off the festive season with our brand new campaign with the incredible Hannah Waddingham and the Gold Vocal Collective.

"This is truly the most indulgent time of year with so many treating occasions, so we invite treat lovers all over the world to join in the festive cheer and drizzle some deliciousness as they celebrate the season with friends and family.”
