Story	As people across Britain return to workplaces, they face new challenges as they aim to look after the safety of themselves and their colleagues.Initially, the spout is extra-useful in helping colleagues to maintain the correct distance; poking through a door to pour a brew from the hallway and holding party ring biscuits. But as the film progresses the shortcomings of the design are made clear: the extra-long spout becomes an extra-large hassle, almost hitting someone in the head and definitely not fitting in the dishwasher.Underlining there is no substitute for maintaining a safe distance, particularly in shared areas, the ad ends with the VO: “Ok, this probably isn’t the answer, but please enjoy your proper brew safely when you’re back at work.”
