Glue London has won a number of awards for Pot Noodle campaigns over the years, including two Cannes gold Lions for the Hysterical Girlfriend viral game and the Noodleweb series of websites. Its latest work for the brand was in support of its "horn" campaign, which drew a number of complaints for its thinly veiled sexual references.

However, the agency feels Unilever's marketing strategy for the next 12 months will not allow glue to continue with that focus on creativity.
