Starring a tuxedoed ginger teen getting ready to take his date to prom while taking a sip of the orange elixir, a dispute takes place about what Scotland’s other national drink really tastes like.

After a debate with the family members, the teen eventually decides to tell an unexpected guest to put her dancing shoes on - all thanks to their agreement on Bru's signature taste.

Prom’ will be airing as a double-feature, with a second film, ‘ Mob ’ capturing a typical American mobster moment where a ‘disagreement’ kicks off when some henchmen argue about the true taste of the orange fizzy juice.

Adrian Troy, Marketing Director at AG Barr, said: “There’s so much fun to be had with the unique flavour that is Irn-Bru, fans globally cannot agree on the taste that makes it so special - whether you’re a prom date, or a mobster. Whatever the situation, we can all at least agree that Irn-Bru tastes phenomenal.”
