KP Snacks announced today that its premium snack brand Tyrrells is returning to TV in the lead up to Christmas with its iconic “Tyrrellbly Tyrrellbly Tasty” campaign. Running from November 28 to December 18, the advert will showcase Tyrrells Lentil Crisps – a range which has grown exponentially over the last year.
Focusing on the quality and taste of Tyrrells crisps, the advert features classic Pathé footage in a playful and engaging TV spot, keeping the Tyrrells brand front of mind during the critical Christmas period.

Tyrrells Lentil sharing packs, featured in the advert, are an ideal treat for Christmas celebrations, bringing tasty and popular flavours to social occasions.
Spotlighted in the campaign, Tyrrells Lentil Crisps are available in two flavours: Sour Cream & Onion and Sweet Chilli & Red Pepper, and are perfectly positioned to capitalise on the growth of healthier snacking (up +29.2 per cent in 12 weeks), delivering a satisfying crunch and 30 per cent less fat than regular potato crisps.
