WIEDEN + KENNEDY LONDON AND HONDA TAKES THIRD GRAND CLIO IN A ROW

MIAMI – For the unprecedented third year in a row, work from Wieden+Kennedy London on behalf of Honda has been selected as the Best-in-Show Grand Clio winner in the Television category, this year for the imaginative and widely praised campaign featuring the two-minute epic “Impossible Dream", “Dreams” and “Choir.” The presentation has just been made at the historic Jackie Gleason Theater in South Beach, Miami on the final night of the annual Clio Festival.
In addition, for the second year in a row Crispin Porter + Bogusky, Miami, was named Clio Agency of the Year and TBWA\Worldwide collected the Clio Agency Network of the Year honors. Those awards are determined by the agency office and network that score the most Clio statue points in a given year. DDB Worldwide Chicago made the best showing in the Radio category, picking up four Gold Clios.
This year marks the first time an agency-client pairing has won a Grand Clio three years in a row. In 2004, Wieden+Kennedy London and Honda picked up the TV Grand Clio for the mesmerizing “Cog", and last year took the same top honor for the captivating animated 90-second spot “Grrr".
Wieden+Kennedy, London and TAXI, Toronto, Canada, led the way in the TV/Cinema category with three Gold Clios each; Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO, London, UK and Creative Juice\G1 in Bangkok, Thailand each won a pair of TV Gold Clios. The TCinema jury, led by executive jury chair Tony Davidson, executive creative director, Wieden+Kennedy, London, awarded a total of 17 Gold, 28 Silver and 47 Bronze Clios in the category.
