The most expensive Guinness advert ever, which features a large-scale game of dominoes, was launched as part of a £10 million ($20 million) marketing campaign.

For a generation, it was the ultimate romance film – a classic tale of forbidden love set to one of Hollywood’s catchiest soundtracks. But when Julia Boggio and James Derbyshire decided to recreate Dirty Dancing’s iconic final routine at their wedding, little did they know they were about to produce a hit of their own.
Footage of them dancing to the tune of (I’ve Had) The Time of My Life has now been viewed by more than 2,700,000 people after it was posted on the internet for the benefit of Ms Boggio’s relatives in the US.
The couple had secretly spent six months perfecting the routine performed by Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey in the 1987 film. They carried off the set-piece at their film-themed wedding, which featured the bride walking down the aisle to the sound of How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria from The Sound of Music.
At one stage, and with the help of some male wedding guests, the groom dramatically hoisted his bride in the air, while around them other guests also dance in synchronisation.
The clip was for a time one of the most 40-viewed pieces of footage on the video-sharing website, YouTube.
