“We are always looking for ways to drive consideration and growth of the Littlewoods Ireland brand. The Big Deal is an exciting new show which is set to be a firm family favourite this Autumn.

According to Jamie Macken, director of funding & partnerships at BiggerStage “The fit between Littlewoods Ireland, the viewer profile, content and tone of The Big Deal couldn’t be better. Not only will Littlewoods Ireland benefit from a strong Saturday evening slot, but also from a comprehensive campaign across multiple social and digital platforms, ensuring reach, frequency and association.’
