Hawkstone Farmers Choir
Jeremy Clarkson assembled the Hawkstone Farmers Choir (originally to appear in an advert for his Hawkstone beer range) and the group’s non-commercial, feel‑good journey to Britain’s Got Talent—raising awareness of farming mental health and earning national coverage—became a media story as they reached the 2026 final.
Why it worked: It hijacked a live national moment with a celebrity-origin story plus a public-vote metric, reframing a beer promo as a mental-health cause.
The lesson: Consider tying your brand-born group to a televised competition or public vote, then quantify momentum and pivot messaging to a social good.
