Judged by M&S and Rankin, the competition looked to celebrate the diversity of kids? passions and demonstrate individuality. Do Your Thing? encouraged parents and guardians to upload a one minute video which demonstrated their child?s passion or talent onto the M&S Do Your Thing?.

Simon Daglish, Director of Multi-Platforms & Partnerships, ITV says, "We are really excited that this partnership built with Marks and Spencer to support their 'Do Your Thing' campaign has resulted in unprecedented levels of campaign engagement. It is a clear demonstration of the power of collaboration between ITV and its customers which leads to great results".
