Kids based in Scotland are wanted urgently to star in a 'major' upcoming TV commercial.

She has also worked on music videos with huge stars such as Harry Styles - and have promised 'good rates of pay' for the gig.

The shoot will take place on April 14 and 15 in either Glasgow or Edinburgh and parents must provide a recent photo, contact number and confirmation of accent.
