​The firm said ​Hotel Gotham made an ideal location for th​e advertisement as it has​ ​a ​“​cheeky twist​“​ with bedrooms featuring plush pink armchairs and pillows.

​Mr Banks, who is also the lead guitarist and​ ​songwriter for the band Shed Seven, ​said: “We’ve been working with Mark​ ​Hill for the last three years producing online content, and it’s really exciting to be​ ​on the journey with them as they grow the brand.

​“​They’re now at the point to​ ​venture into creating commercials, which is a brilliant opportunity to bring our​ ​experience of creating TV commercials for brands such as Sony and Richer​ ​Sounds to the table.

​“​The Mark Hill team wanted to create a fun and vibrant​ ​lifestyle commercial, so it was important to get the casting and location right​ ​and the Gotham Hotel was the perfect fit for us.”
