The challenge.

Create a bold, public-facing activation to celebrate the series finale that would capture the spirit of the show and surprise audiences.

Our approach.

  • Recreated the show's iconic Loser's Café inside London's Liverpool Street Station.
  • Created tongue-in-cheek menu items inspired by memorable moments.
  • Invited judge Tim Campbell and finalists Kathryn Burn and Harpreet Kaur.
  • BBC Concert Orchestra performed the theme tune.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Ann Squared on our last two major European customer conferences in both London and Amsterdam. The team is incredibly personable and always takes the time to understand and deliver on the brief. The events they create are consistently of a very high standard and are always held in high esteem by our customers, receiving excellent feedback. Their careful planning, strong budget management, and genuine commitment to getting things right make them one of the easiest companies I’ve worked with. I look forward to continuing our partnership for many years to come.
